David Spoon was born and raised in a Jewish home in Detroit, Michigan. He attended a private Hebrew school called Hillel Hebrew Academy. David was bar mitzvah-ed at the age of thirteen. Not long after, he was involved in drug abuse and trafficking. After hearing the Gospel for the first time at age seventeen, David accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. A few months later, David had a dramatic experience with God. Immediately free from years of excessive drug use, he committed himself to ministry and furthering the Kingdom of God.
He attended Arizona Bible College, Northern Arizona University, and Life Pacific College, graduating Summa-cum-Laude in their Ministry and Leadership program. He also graduated with honors from Regent University with a master’s degree in theological studies and finished his Doctor of Ministry program in Strategic Christian Ministry at Liberty University.
He is one of a few individuals holding ministerial ordinations from three separate denominations: Heritage Free Baptist Organization, 1981; Independent Pentecostal Ministers Association, 1985; and Vineyard Valley Association, 1988. He was also the Chaplain for the Flagstaff Police Department. In addition, David was the senior pastor of Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Flagstaff.
In addition, David started and co-hosted two different live Christian call-in radio talk shows. He hosted the very popular radio show “The David Spoon Experience” on KPRZ 1210 and a show called “To Know Him,” which aired on 88.9 on the F.M. dial-in Temecula, California at 1:00 p.m., Monday through Fridays. He was also the Director of Local Ministry for Salem Media Group in San Diego, California.
David is married to his best friend, Noelle. He has three children and six grandchildren, plus a dog named Levi. On March 18th, 2019, he started “The David Spoon Experience” in Texas and is growing with his audience of awesome believers and non-believers alike.
He is the President of He Must Increase Ministry, a 501c3 ministry, and is hosting (again) the live daily radio show “The David Spoon Experience” with DJR Broadcasting on the 770 A.M. radio dial and on various apps and the Internet.
David is a Jewish-Christian, Bapti-Costal, Cal-Minian, and Manifold Millennialist.
