Behind the strong man that most people have known him for “chasing down criminals,” is a man who genuinely loves God. With the platform that God entrusted him, he used them to lead others to know Christ.

In an interview with CBN News, Duane recalled his childhood days when he was raised in a Christian home. His mother was a prayer warrior who brought him to church. As a young boy, he attended church Sunday services and youth camps.

“I knew more than most people did, right from wrong, miracles of God — I knew all that,” he recounted.

Went To Prison

However, later in Duane’s life, he went down the road and traversed a crooked path despite knowing God. He revealed the moment when he went to prison during the 70s. He joined robbers in breaking “into a man’s home in a search for marijuana.” The incident led him to five years and 18 months locked up inside the prison cell.

Several years later, Duane was finally released from the prison. It is when he decided to follow a different path and become a changed man. Soon after, he became the icon in the show “Dog the Bounty Hunter” between 2003 to 2012.

Faith in God

Life was smooth sailing for Duane until his first wife succumbed to cancer in 2019. It was painful but he overcame the struggle by God’s grace. Later, he met his now-wife, Francie. Since then, his faith in God continued to strengthen. Consequently, the Christian author realized that the darkest moments in his life led him closer to God.

“I know God is absolutely real,” he remarked. “I know that God told me years ago … ‘I’m going to show you miracles beyond [anything] that you could imagine, think, or want.’”

Then, he added, “My faith has grown ever since Beth passed away about five years ago and I met Francie.”

Today, Duane and his wife are sharing the good news with others. They build up each other in faith and trust in God. Duane has also written a new book titled, “Nine Lives and Counting: A Bounty Hunter’s Journey to Faith, Hope, and Redemption.”

Dog The Bounty Hunter Urges Believers To Do The Works Of Jesus Christ

Duane Chapman, famously known as Dog The Bounty Hunter, talks about the supernatural warfare and the power of Jesus he has been experiencing.

Dog The Bounty Hunter

Duane and his wife, Francie, appeared on “The Kellie Show” and explained how Christians need the power of God to overcome today’s evil.

“We all know that there’s evil and good. So let’s go one step further. Katie and I and Francie have met a lot of bank robbers, and we met a lot of guys that will beat you down and shoot you. But there’s this other realm of criminals which is called demonic,” he said.

“Now those demonic guys will kill their own mothers. They’ll walk into a school and start shooting everybody or a shopping center. Now, evil is evil, but demonic evil is there. We all know now in America that we’ve seen demonic evil. ‘How could that guy do that?’ On the natural flipside of that coin has to be God’s supernatural power.”

Duane and Francie Chapman

Duane believes that there is a Christian lifestyle most don’t live out, and that is the “super-Christianity.” The 69-years-old urges others to ask for God’s supernatural empowerment to go through the “last days.”

He recalled the time when God used him for the deliverance of an overdosed girl. He and Francie were passing down the street when they saw the girl convulsing. The Lord spoke to Duane and said, “She needs help!”

So, Duane went to her and asked the Lord for his next move. He told Duane to either do CPR or lay hands, and Dunae preferred the latter.

“I took a deep breath, and I said, ‘in the name of Jesus, right now, stop it!’ And I said, ‘in Jesus’ name, get out of her!'”

Then the girl woke up and was in the “right mind.” She asked, “What happened to me?” It turned out that Duane had cast a demon out of the girl’s body in Jesus’ name.

Today, Duane is still out on the hunt, but he chases after child molesters, child predators, and women abusers.  “Right now in America, it’s about the only people they leave in jail. So we are going after the worst of the worse, and we’re bringing them in, in Jesus’ name.”

The couple is also helping human trafficking victims by putting them in rehab. They have “The House of Bounty,” where they will help them get “healthy, whole, and healed.”

Francie shared, “We want them to live a life that is outside of abuse and to know who they are in Christ.”

written by Rhoda Gayle

Duane Chapman, popularly known as “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” shares how he was transformed from being an imprisoned criminal to being a crime-fighting reality star.

Dog the Bounty Hunter

In an interview with “The Prodigal Stories Podcast,” Duane shared his testimony and how God transformed his life entirely. The reality star grew up with a Christian mother, she was a pastor. As a child, he attended church services every Sunday.

“My great, great grandmother was a Christian,” he said. “She was a pastor. My mother … all day long, her whole life, all she did was pray for us.”

But despite having Christian roots and getting to know Christianity at a young age, he started to walk from his faith years later. Eventually, his decision to do anything he wanted to lead him to a life of corruption and crime.

Imprisoned Criminal

Duane and three others broke into a house to steal marijuana. One of his accomplices shot and killed the homeowner during the scuffle and they were arrested. Duane was sentenced to five years and served 18 months in prison.

“After going to prison in the 70s in Texas for 18 months, I realized right then that, at the end of this rainbow of crime and all that is not a bucket of gold, it’s a cell,” he said.

His mother never gave up on praying for him. Even after his release from prison, his mother made efforts to bring him back to Jesus.

“As I slept, my mom put on a recording of the Bible,” he recalled.

Crime-fighting Christian

After some time, his heart started to change and he started to want to do what was good. That’s the start of his rekindled faith in Jesus Christ.

“I started acting nice. I’m an Indian outlaw, so I started acting like I wasn’t,” he said. “Then I started thinking, ‘What would Jesus do right now?’ … I didn’t want to do that. I wanted to slap [someone] or something, and I’d think, ‘Jesus would not do that.’”

Today, he is an outspoken Christian who hunts criminals. The 69-year-old bounty hunter claims to have captured 8,000 fugitives over his four-decade career. He is also ministering to those criminals to help them do the right thing.

“I would capture guys and tell them, ‘Listen, man, I’ve been there, done that … we need supernatural help,’” he said.

Dog the Bounty Hunter will continue to share the message of the Gospel to everyone through his platform.

“I am not a preacher — never will be,” he said. “But I have a message.”

Dog the Bounty Hunter brought the judges of the show “Masked Singer” to tears with his soulful rendition of “Amazing Grace.”

Duane Chapman, popularly known as “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” joined the popular masked celebrity singing show dressed in an armadillo suit. On the 6th episode of the show’s 7th season, the outspoken Christian performed an emotional rendition of the Christian hymn.

Judges Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke were moved by Duane’s performance. Nicole wiped her tears as she commented on his performance.

“That’s one of the best versions of ‘Amazing Grace’ I’ve ever heard because you believed it, and so do I,” Nicole said.

“Amazing Grace”

Duane then revealed that the song was his mother’s favorite song.

“That song happened to be my mother’s favorite. It really was very emotional for me to show my faith, that Fox is cool enough to do that to anybody,” Duane said in an interview with Hollywood Life.

Judge Robin also revealed that “Amazing Grace” is the song that he sings to his child almost every night.

“I sing that song to my son just about every night. And years ago, when I was going through my toughest times, those lyrics would resonate with me. It was my son and my children that saved me. I really appreciate you putting that down,” Robin said.

Later in the competition, with just three contestants left, Duane was eliminated from the show. He opened up about how difficult the show is for every performer. The costumes are incredibly heavy and while wearing the masks, no one can see through them. But it was God who helped him through the competition.

“You can’t see. You can’t walk,” he said. “So, you’re actually talking around the neck, but you’ve got to act like you’re not. You cannot see. No one can. You’ve got to go out there blindfolded and depend on God and your hidden talent.”

Duane Chapman Stars In Upcoming Christian Film ‘Hunter’s Creed’ To Honor Late Wife

by Rhoda Gayle
written by Rhoda Gayle

Reality TV star Duane Chapman will star in the upcoming Christian film “Hunter’s Creed” to honor his late wife.

“Hunter’s Creed”

“Hunter’s Creed” is a faith-based movie, formerly titled “Hunting God,” scheduled to be released on October 6. The film’s theme revolves around the commonly asked question: Why does God allow bad things to happen? It is about keeping the faith despite facing great loss.

“After losing his wife, a man reunites with his church buddies to film the hunting show they’ve always wanted to make together. Before long, he senses a dark presence in the woods eventually bringing him face to face with death — and his faith,” the synopsis of “Hunter’s Creed” reads.

Duane Chapman

Directed by Justin Jackola and written by Ken Miyamoto, this film will inspire Christians about God’s truth. Duane Chapman, popularly known as Dog the Bounty Hunter, will star in the upcoming film to honor his late wife who also died of cancer.

“Dog Chapman was the perfect choice for ‘Hunter’s Creed’ for a number of reasons. First off, Dog isn’t afraid of his faith,” director Justin said in an interview. “He’s open and honest about what God’s done in his life on and off-camera. In his television show, we have literally seen him pray on camera for help in finding his next bounty. It’s a film about a man’s intimate response to losing his wife to cancer and Dog has experienced exactly that with his late wife Beth Chapman passing away to cancer.”

Faith-based film

Viewers of the film will understand more of God’s sovereignty while also deepening their faith in Him.

“We want people to walk away with a sense of awe, that God’s sovereignty and plan may be more beautiful and complex than you could ever imagine. We also want people to think deeply about what they truly believe,” Director Justin said. “If you were face to face with death, where would your heart really rest?”

Beth Chapman, Wife to Duane ‘Dog the Bounty Hunter’ Chapman, Has “Hiked the Stairway to Heaven”

by Jared Laskey
written by Jared Laskey

Duane Chapman, also known as ‘Dog the Bounty Hunter,’ tweeted that his wife, Beth, has “hiked the stairway to Heaven.”

On June 23rd, while Beth was in coma, Duane asked his friends and family to pray. Tweeting:

Beth Chapman (51), who has stood by her husband’s side in their bail bonds business and famous reality-TV series, was in a medical induced coma in Hawaii. She valiantly fought throat cancer undergoing a successful surgery removing a tumor in 2017. But in time cancer returned, moving to her lungs and was incurable.

USA Today reports, “Beth and Duane Chapman gained fame starring together on the A&E reality series Dog the Bounty Hunter from 2003 to 2012, according to IMDB. The couple, along with their children, chased down fugitives in Hawaii. A few years later, they trained other bail bond agents on Dog and Beth: On the Hunt.”

Jeanie Law of Christian Post said, “While speaking at The Source Church in Bradenton, Florida on Mother’s Day Beth revealed that her diagnosis has been ‘the ultimate test of faith.’ Beth said, ‘I don’t go to God and go, ‘Why did I get cancer?’ He’ll roll his eyes at me again, because I know why. Because this is the ultimate test of faith. It is the evidence of things hoped for and it is the substance of things not known.'”

Please pray that the comfort of the Holy Spirit and the love of Jesus falls upon the Chapman family during this time.
