09-23-2025 PART 3: Genuine Love, Real Wounds, and Moving Forward

The David Spoon Experience

Section 1
This message begins with the simple truth that we all know what is good and what is not. The call is to hate what is wrong and hold fast to what is good, living with genuine affection for one another. Yet the challenge is clear: many of us have been deeply hurt—sometimes not by strangers, but by fellow believers, even those closest to us. That kind of wounding cuts the deepest, just as David lamented when those near to him turned against him. Anger itself is not sin, but holding on to anger, hurt, or bitterness poisons not only our relationships with people but also our fellowship with God.

Section 2
The antidote is authenticity. Too many Christians carry “bologna,” pretending, posturing, or hiding pain. The younger generation, in particular, can spot a phony. Scripture instead calls us to genuine love: to pray for others, to truly bless them, and to take delight in honoring one another. Romans 12:9–11 urges believers to serve with sincerity and enthusiasm, not laziness or pretense. Churches often do well at loving people, but the temptation to put on a mask can undermine the witness. God desires His people to walk authentically, genuinely reflecting His love, even when it’s hard.

Section 3
The message then shifts into a personal reflection on ministry growth. After the closure of the KAAM 770 broadcast, the work expanded into internet radio, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Rumble, reaching tens of thousands in just a few months. While the direction ahead feels uncertain, the commitment is to remain faithful and seek God’s wisdom. Energy is low, personal struggles are real, and family challenges press in—but God continues to open doors, such as new preaching opportunities. The desire is simple yet profound: to keep moving forward in partnership with the Lord, to love Him fully, and to show the world authentic discipleship through love for one another.
