The Clash (s2e11) – Worship Wars – Bonus Content

You found the bonus content. Welcome to the elite. If you missed the regular Worship Wars episode, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/TtQFOarQFl0
In this unauthorized, no-holds-barred discussion, we ask a question many are thinking: When did the stoic, hymnal-led ‘Minister of Music’ get replaced by the skinny-jeaned, ‘Come on, church!’ worship pastor?
We’re diving headfirst into the “worship wars”—exploring the shift from traditional to contemporary, the surprising (and sometimes secular) origins of classic hymns, and the controversies that once rocked the church, from organs and guitars to the simple act of raising hands.
Ultimately, we wrestle with the most important question: In a battle of styles, preferences, and traditions, what does God think? This is a frank, honest, and necessary conversation about getting back to the heart of worship.

The American Miracle (s1e6) – Erasing God: The Fight for America’s Soul and Its Sacred History

There is a battle raging for the story of America. One side claims the nation’s success is a product of secular enlightenment. The other knows the truth: America is a miracle, founded by wise leaders who built its laws and philosophies on the bedrock of God’s Word.
This is not a matter of opinion—it’s a matter of historical fact. This episode presents the powerful evidence that the founders, from Washington to Franklin, believed that true freedom and just governance were impossible without acknowledging God’s authority. To deny this is to discount the very miracle of America.
You cannot write God out of the equation. Discover the foundation that made the American Dream possible.

Hit in the Head with a Hymn Book (s1e2) – The Bat-Keeping Author of ‘Onward, Christian Soldiers’

Did you know one of Christianity’s most famous “battle” hymns was written by an eccentric, self-taught scholar who kept a pet bat on his shoulder? In this episode of “Hit me in the head with a hymn book,” host Jeff Dixon uncovers the strange and fascinating life of Sabine Baring-Gould, the man behind “Onward, Christian Soldiers.” Discover why this iconic marching anthem was hastily written for a children’s parade on Whit Sunday, and why its author later admitted its rhymes were “faulty.” It’s a story of a chaotic childhood, brilliant eccentricity, and a song that took on a life of its own.

Get Ready for a Wild Ride – Mission Impossible Possible (Session Four)

Hebrew For You (s1e16) – You’re Meditating Wrong. The Hebrew Secret to a Stronger Faith

What if “meditating” on God’s Word wasn’t about being silent? In this video, we uncover the powerful Hebrew word “hagah” (הָגָה) and its surprising, active meaning. Discover the stunning connection between this ancient practice and the resilient desert acacia tree described in Psalm 1. Learn why muttering, reciting, and speaking Scripture out loud is the key to developing deep spiritual roots that can withstand any of life’s “deserts.” This isn’t just a language lesson; it’s a guide to building an unshakeable faith.

The American Miracle (s1e5) – The Cornerstone of Civilization: How Faith Forged American Freedom

In a world where tyranny is the norm, how did America become a beacon of liberty? On this episode of The American Miracle, host Jeff Dixon examines the spiritual roots of our nation’s most cherished principle: freedom. He reveals why freedom isn’t a political accident but a divine miracle, woven into the fabric of Christian truth. Discover the powerful idea that liberty limited by law is the “cornerstone of civilization” and why, as Ronald Reagan said, the moral courage of free people is a weapon our adversaries will never possess. Is this miracle in danger of fading? Watch to understand the sacred responsibility we have to fight for the freedom that defines the American Miracle.

Hit in the Head with a Hymn Book (s1e1) – You’ll Never Hear ‘Jesus Loves Me’ the Same Way Again

Ever had a hymn book thrown at your head? Jeff Dixon has (well, almost). That wild story kicks off a new series where we unpack the shocking, tragic, and inspiring origins of the hymns you thought you knew.
In this episode, we explore the profound story behind the simple words of “Jesus Loves Me.” It’s a journey from a Gilded Age mansion to a ramshackle house, from literary stardom to financial struggle, and finally to a place of honor at the West Point Military Cemetery. Join me as we discover how two sisters’ unwavering faith in the face of hardship gave the world its most beloved children’s hymn.

The Clash (s2e25) – Taking Care of Others In and Out of the Ring

She was trained by the Great Malenko and Carl Gotch, scouted for Japan from a single photograph, and held championship gold in one of the world’s toughest promotions. On this episode of The Clash, we’re honored to host our first female professional wrestler, Deb Malenko.
Join hosts Jeff Dixon and Chris Whaley (a Malenko trainee himself!) as they dive into Deb’s captivating career. From high school wrestling to the dojos of Japan, Deb discusses the discipline, the risks, and the memorable matches that defined her time in the ring.
But the real main event is her story of faith. Discover how a “latchkey kid” always felt God’s presence, how she found purpose beyond the spotlight, and how the lessons of the squared circle—accountability, protecting others, and never giving up—became the cornerstones of her life as a wife, mother, and follower of Jesus.

The American Miracle (s1e4) – America’s Fate is Tied to Israel. The Bible Says So

Is there a non-negotiable principle for America’s survival and blessing? This episode of “The American Miracle” makes a bold claim: our nation’s destiny is inextricably linked to our friendship with Israel. We move beyond political talking points to reveal the theological foundation of this crucial relationship.
From the Oval Office to high-stakes diplomacy, discover how a shared biblical heritage has consistently guided American leaders to support the Jewish nation. We explore the simple but profound truth: the Bible promises blessings to those who bless Israel, and America is living proof of that promise. This is the conversation every person of faith needs to hear.

In this thought-provoking episode of Conspiracy Cases, Jeff Dixon moves beyond the familiar theories to uncover something far more profound: the powerful spiritual lessons and life reflections hidden within Hoffa’s story. This isn’t just a true-crime documentary; it’s an invitation to introspection.
Join us as we explore 8 critical takeaways from Hoffa’s life and mysterious death—on power, legacy, truth, and justice—that challenge us to examine how we live our own lives today. The most important clues he left behind aren’t about his death, but about our life.

But what happens next is not a lecture; it’s a lesson in limitless grace.
Join us in The Carpenter Shop as we explore Jesus’s restorative words to Peter. This message is for anyone who has ever felt defined by their mistakes and wondered if there’s any hope left.

The American Miracle (s1e3) – Did God Use America to Fulfill the Great Commission?

Jesus gave his followers a final command: Go and make disciples of all nations. But how did that message reach the ends of the earth? Host Jeff Dixon presents a compelling case that God uniquely positioned the United States to be the launching pad for the modern missionary movement.
From the “Jesus” film to radio broadcasts in remote villages, the resources, freedom, and faith of American believers created an unprecedented wave of global evangelism. Is this a coincidence, or is it evidence of God’s specific plan for America? This episode of The American Miracle explores the profound impact of the American church on the world and asks what this means for us today and in the future.

Conspiracy Cases (s1e31) – The Hoffa Paradox: The Unsolvable Murder with Four Confessions (Part 3/4)

It’s one of America’s greatest unsolved mysteries. In 1975, powerful Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa vanished. But in this case, the problem isn’t a lack of suspects—it’s too many. At least four different mob-affiliated men have confessed to the murder, including the infamous Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran.
In this episode of Conspiracy Cases, we unravel the web of conflicting motives and chilling claims. Was Hoffa silenced for stealing from the mob, for trying to reclaim his union throne, or for the secrets he held about some of America’s most famous assassinations? We explore the gruesome theories about his body—buried under a stadium, crushed in a car, or cremated into ash—and examine why, despite multiple confessions and decades of investigation, the truth remains just out of reach.

The Clash (s2e24) – Operation Rising Lion

They shouted “Death to Israel” and “Death to America.” They moved closer to a nuclear weapon. Now, Israel has responded. In a world on fire, where does a Christian stand?
In this powerful episode of The Clash, former pro wrestler Chris Whaley and pastor Jeff Dixon don’t just report the news—they wrestle with it. They explore the biblical mandate for governments to “bear the sword” (Romans 13) to restrain evil and protect the innocent. This is a raw, real-time conversation about the timing of the attack, the role of the US, and why, even in the chaos of war, Christians can say with confidence, “We’ve read the end of the book, and we win.”
