Dallas Holm sits down with his friend Keith, who leads the Gladiators for His Glory Bible study in Lindale, Texas, for a conversation about memorizing Scripture and the Navigators ministry that shaped both of their walks with Christ.

Keith traces his own start with the Navigators back to his time in the Navy aboard the USS Nimitz, then shares the story of founder Dawson Trotman and how a single discipleship relationship in the 1930s grew into a movement built on one simple principle: pass on what you've been taught. He walks through the Navigators' Topical Memory System, 60 scripture cards built for exactly this kind of one-verse-a-week discipline, and other practical ways anyone can memorize Scripture: writing a verse out by hand, engaging your senses, or simply reviewing what you've learned.

A gentle reminder that God's Word hidden in your heart is never wasted, no matter your age or how sharp you think your memory is.

Scripture referenced:
- 1 John 5:11-12
- 1 Corinthians 10:13
- 1 John 1:9
- Proverbs 3:5-6
- Matthew 10:19
- Luke 4:1-13

Dallas closes his message on crucial Christianity with the price the Apostle Paul paid just to sign his own letters — crippled, gnarled hands — and lands on the promise that carries every believer through suffering: God's grace is sufficient, in living and in dying.

Paul had Luke — a doctor who stayed by his side through the suffering. Who in your life needs you to do the same?

Scripture referenced:
- Isaiah 45:7
- Romans 8:28
- Romans 12:1-2
- Galatians 2:20
- Philippians 3:7-10

Also quoted: J. Gregory Mantel, Beyond Humiliation — "It's far harder to live moment by moment than it is to die once."

Is your faith merely convenient — or is it truly crucial? Guest preaching by invitation from Pastor Bryce, Dallas opens a message grounded in the true stories of two men who paid dearly for the gospel: Rev. Harlan Popov, a Bulgarian pastor tortured for 13 years under Communist rule, and Richard Wurmbrand, founder of Voice of the Martyrs, imprisoned for 14 years.

This is Part 1 of a two-part message.

Scripture referenced:
- Revelation 2:10
- 2 Corinthians 11:23-27

On this Independence Day weekend, Dallas Holm reflects on the awesome displays of power he witnessed—Fourth of July fireworks, a New York Harbor military parade, flyovers by the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds—and how all of it, put together, barely represents a spark compared to the power and glory of God.

As a thunderstorm rolls in during filming, Dallas draws a simple but striking comparison: the fireworks and military might we celebrate this weekend are nothing next to the lightning and thunder God commands, "not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit" (Zechariah 4:6). He shares a favorite childhood memory of thunder explained as "angels moving furniture," then leads listeners in worship with "How Great Is Our God."

The episode closes in praise—honoring God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and resting in the hope of the resurrection.

Take a moment to reflect: whatever power impresses you this week, remember it's only a shadow of the God we serve.

In this episode of Here We Are, Dallas Holm is joined by his friend Jason Rose for a warm and thoughtful conversation about memorizing Scripture, meditating on God’s Word, and learning to handle truth with grace.

Dallas reflects on the people who helped shape his love for the Bible, including his grandfather, faithful pastors, David Wilkerson, and the men in his Friday morning Bible study. Together, Dallas and Jason remind us that Scripture is not meant to be used harshly, but hidden in our hearts so the Holy Spirit can bring it to life in the right moment.

May this conversation encourage you to treasure God’s Word, spend time in Scripture, and allow it to shape the way you follow Jesus.

As Dallas reflects on the childhood song "This Little Light of Mine," he shares a simple but powerful reminder: the world may grow darker, but Jesus is still the Light.

God has shone His light upon us, and He invites us to walk in that light every day. Darkness is always just a step away—but so is His grace, His truth, and His presence.

Take a moment today to ask yourself: Is my light shining for Him? And if not, pray for the courage to step back into His light.

What helps you stay close to Jesus when life feels dark? Dallas would love to hear from you.

In this conversation, Dallas Holm and his daughter Jennifer discuss raising children to love Jesus, the unique role grandparents play in shaping faith, and the importance of modeling Christ in everyday life.

Dallas shares why consistency, humility, forgiveness, and a genuine walk with Jesus can have a lasting impact on children and grandchildren alike. The greatest legacy isn't success, wealth, or achievement—it's seeing the next generation follow Christ.

One of the greatest ministries we may ever have is right inside our own home.

In this conversation, Dallas sits down with Jennifer and Jason to talk honestly about raising children to know and love Jesus. Not through perfection or pressure, but through consistency, prayer, Scripture, love, and creating a home where Christ is truly lived out every day.

Sometimes it’s Bible stories on a trampoline. Sometimes it’s Bible trivia in the car. Sometimes it’s simply staying faithful when you wonder if anything is sinking in. Keep planting those seeds. God is faithful.

If you’re raising children, praying for grandchildren, or trying to lead your family closer to the Lord, we hope this encourages you today. ❤️
