As we step into 2026, many of us are tempted to drag the “baggage” of last year—the mistakes, the “could-haves,” and the guilt—into our future. But in this episode, hosts Jeff Dixon and Dr. Chris Whaley (The Masked Saint) remind us of a powerful truth: It’s a brand-new year, but we serve the same eternal, unchanging God.
Join the conversation as we explore why “Redemption triumphs over regret every time.” Jeff and Chris dive into the theology of moving from a victim mentality to a victorious life, the significance of Christ’s final words on the cross, and the miraculous promise that God’s mercies are unique and brand-new every single morning.
Don’t stay at the cross halfway—stay long enough to realize your guilt is gone. It’s time to stop looking over your shoulder and start walking into the victory God has prepared for you this year.

How can you be destitute and “rich” at the same time? In this episode of The Carpenter Shop, Jeff Dixon explores the powerful paradox found in Revelation 2:9. The Christians in the ancient city of Smyrna lived at the very bottom of the economic ladder—marginalized, persecuted, and often unsure where their next meal would come from. Yet, Jesus looked at them and said, “You are rich.”
Join Jeff as he discusses the difference between earthly success and heavenly treasure. If you’ve ever felt the pressure of a world that values “having and attaining” above all else, this message is a reminder to shift your focus. When we seek the Kingdom first, our “wants” begin to line up with His, and we find a wealth that the world can never take away.

Are you sitting on the sidelines while the Kingdom of God waits for your contribution? In Season 2, Episode 2 of our deep dive into spiritual gifts, Jeff Dixon explores a hard truth: neglecting the gifts God gave you isn’t just a missed opportunity—it’s disobedience.
Today, we’re unpacking the Gift of Evangelism. Is it just for people like Billy Graham, or are we all on the hook? Learn the difference between the “Great Commission” command that applies to every believer and the unique spiritual gift that empowers some to “close the deal” for Christ. Whether you’re a natural talker or someone who struggles to find the words, this episode will show you how your obedience completes the “team sport” of winning the world for Jesus.

Did you know that the entire biblical narrative is bookended by meals? From the abundance of the Garden of Eden to the glorious Wedding Feast of the Lamb, food is far more than just physical sustenance in Scripture. It serves as a powerful sign of covenant, a tool for spiritual restoration, and a vivid symbol of God’s radical inclusion of all people. In this teaching, we dive deep into the “theology of the table,” exploring how the significance of the Last Supper instituted a New Covenant through the simple elements of bread and wine.
We look closely at why Jesus chose a wedding feast for His first miracle and how He used “table fellowship” to shatter social barriers by dining with outcasts, tax collectors, and sinners alike. From the covenant meals on Mount Sinai to a quiet beachside breakfast of fish and bread where Peter found total restoration, we see that God’s presence is often most tangible when we gather to eat. Join us as we discover how God uses the simple act of eating to heal relationships, seal promises, and invite us into His eternal Kingdom. We conclude with heart-moving personal stories from our own community that remind us how the meals in our daily lives can reflect the beauty and grace of the Gospel.

In Revelation 16, we witness the final execution of God’s justice upon a world that has rejected Him. Join us for a “thumbnail sketch” of this heavy chapter as we discuss the transition from the Mark of the Beast to the Mark of God’s Judgment. We look at the chilling reality of the scorched earth, the darkness over the throne of the Antichrist, and the final cry from the Temple: “It is done.” This is the dismantling of every human institution built apart from the Lord.

The calendar changes, but God doesn’t. As we stand on the threshold of a brand-new year, many of us feel a sense of dread rather than excitement. What if nothing changes? What if I fail again?
Jeff Dixon and Chris Whaley explore the collision between culture’s obsession with “New Year, New Me” and the biblical call to “Take Heart.” This conversation isn’t about gym memberships or organized paper calendars; it’s about the shift from fear to trust. Join us for a dose of humor, honesty, and hope as we prepare to clash with the culture of 2026.
