Hit in the Head with a Hymn Book (s1e3) – What Does It Mean to Be “Closer Drawn to Thee”?

The hymn “I Am Thine, O Lord” is a prayer for deeper intimacy with God. But what does a life dedicated to that prayer actually look like? The answer is found in the incredible life of its author, Fanny Crosby.
Join us in this moving episode of “Hit in the Head by a Hymn Book” as Jeff Dixon shares how a blind woman’s devotion—memorizing scripture, serving the poor, and writing thousands of hymns—became the ultimate expression of drawing near to God. Her story gives new meaning to the words we sing and challenges us to live them out.

The American Miracle (s1e8) – The Revived Roman Empire: Is America Destined to Join It?

The Bible is silent on America’s future, but prophecy experts have a powerful theory: America won’t lead in the end times, but will be absorbed into a European coalition—the Revived Roman Empire.
In this episode of “The American Miracle,” Jeff Dixon unpacks this compelling idea, citing prophecy expert John Walvoord. We’ll examine historical transatlantic agreements as potential steps toward this merger and analyze how recent “America First” policies may have prophetically disrupted or delayed this global realignment. Is this America’s hidden role in the end times?

A Walk Through the Carpenter’s Shop (s8e29) – Washed Clean: Proof That No One is Beyond God’s Grace

Is anyone truly beyond saving? In The Carpenter Shop, we find the answer in a story from a county jail where murderers and robbers were washed clean in the waters of baptism. This is the radical, unstoppable grace of God in action.
Join Jeff Dixon as he uses this modern-day miracle to illustrate the purpose of baptism: a beautiful, external symbol of an internal rebirth. It’s a declaration that you belong to Him and a celebration that causes joy in heaven. This video is a powerful reminder that no matter your past, God’s grace is present, and a new life is waiting.

The Clash (s2e26) – Lights, Camera, Conviction

Are movies a dangerous influence or one of the greatest modern tools for storytelling? In this episode of “The Clash,” former pro-wrestler-turned-pastor Chris Whaley and his co-host Jeff Dixon dive headfirst into the debate.
From the nostalgia of Jaws and John Wayne to the controversy of The Exorcist and Harry Potter, they explore how Christians can navigate the world of cinema. They also offer a brutally honest take on modern Christian films and discuss how to use movies as a powerful starting point for faith conversations. This is the fun, unfiltered conversation about faith and film you’ve been waiting for.

Ask Jeff (s2e12) – From Birdies to Blessings: The Surprising Link Between Golf and Faith

Ever wondered why a good golf shot is named after a bird? In this episode of Ask Jeff, we tackle a viewer’s curious question: “What do birds have to do with golf?”
What starts as a fun history lesson—tracing terms like “birdie” and “eagle” back to a single “bird of a shot” in 1903—unexpectedly transforms into a powerful spiritual analogy. Join Jeff as he explores how the fairways, the hazards, and the rules of golf mirror our own walk of faith, reminding us that every shot counts, and our ultimate goal is to finish the course well.
Have a question for Jeff? Send it in! We’d love to answer it.

Conspiracy Cases (s1e33) – Murder in the Vatican? The Unsolved Case of the 33-Day Pope (Part 1/4)

In 1978, the humble and beloved Pope John Paul I won the hearts of millions. Then, just 33 days into his papacy, he was found dead. The Vatican declared it natural causes, but their story immediately began to unravel.
Welcome to Conspiracy Cases. In this episode, Jeff Dixon opens the file on one of history’s most enduring mysteries. We’ll examine the shocking evidence: false reports about who found the body, a fabricated cause of death, the illegal refusal to perform an autopsy, and a suspiciously fast embalming. The Vatican had an answer for everything, but does any of it add up? You be the judge.

The American Miracle (s1e7) – Why Is America Missing From Bible Prophecy?

The United States is the most powerful nation in modern history, a country many believe to be a miracle in its own right. So why, when we turn to the pages of biblical prophecy, is there a deafening silence about its role in the end times?
Join Jeff Dixon on “The American Miracle” as we confront this unsettling question. Drawing on the insights of prophecy scholars like Dr. Tim LaHaye, we’ll explore the reasons why the Bible’s ancient prophets may have overlooked the future superpower. This is the first step in a deep-dive investigation into where America fits in God’s ultimate plan. What you discover may surprise you.

A Walk Through the Carpenter’s Shop (s8e28) – Your Life Is a Message. What Is It Saying?

Jesus grew and learned in a carpenter’s shop. In that same spirit, we step into the shop to build a deeper faith. This week’s lesson? Learning to please God.
It’s a desire deep in the heart of every believer, but how do we do it in a world of constant communication, social pressure, and daily demands? Using Psalm 69 as our guide, Jeff Dixon challenges us to examine our “why.” Are your actions, your posts, and your conversations a song of praise to God? This isn’t about perfection; it’s about intention. Let’s learn to build a life that magnifies Him.

Hebrew For You (s1e17) – Stop Being a Student. Be an Apprentice of Jesus

For years, you may have been told to be a “disciple” of Jesus. But the original Hebrew word, “Talmid,” reveals a depth we’ve largely forgotten. It doesn’t just mean “student”—it means “apprentice.”
Join us as we explore how this ancient concept moves us beyond head knowledge and into radical imitation. A student knows what the teacher knows. A Talmid strives to do what the teacher does. This simple shift in perspective has the power to transform your prayer life, your relationships, and your entire purpose. Stop being a fan of Jesus and start being His apprentice.

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.

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.
