Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

In our last broadcast, Ron took us to Revelation chapter two and to the words Jesus said to the church at Thyatira. Ron has more to say on that subject coming up next, but he also shares a practical application, and a word of caution, for all of us who call ourselves believers in Christ. Stay with us now as Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “Ready for His Return,” based on Revelation chapter...

In our lives, our homes, even our churches, things are not always what they seem. The church at Thyatira looked fine from the outside.  But something was lurking beneath the surface, and Jesus made it a point to confront it. First, He offers some kind and encouraging words about the things they had done well. But what Jesus says next may surprise you, and it’s definitely worth a listen. Stay with...

Today, Ron returns to the book of Revelation and a letter written to the church at Pergamum. They had begun to compromise the Word of God, and Jesus strongly admonished them. As you follow along today, see what similarities you may find between Pergamum and the church here in twenty-first-century America.  

Sometimes in life you have to compromise. In marriage. In friendship. On the job. But there’s a time to meet halfway, and a time to stand your ground. In the book of Revelation, the church at Pergamum had begun to compromise the Word of God. Its members encountered some false teaching, and they decided to go along, to get along. Today, Ron examines what Jesus had to say to them and how we can appl...

Here in America, the church has begun to suffer, if not outright persecution, at least some degree of prejudice. Might it get worse in our lifetime? The short answer is yes, the treatment of Bible-believing Christians here at home may very well grow worse in the coming years. With that in mind, Ron has three critical lessons to teach us today as he continues his teaching series, “Ready For His Ret...

Here in America, we hear the stories of Christians being persecuted or killed for their faith all over the world. Could something like that happen in the United States? Today, Ron takes us to the second of seven letters written to the churches in the book of Revelation. It’s a sobering letter to the church at Smyrna, telling them they are about to suffer great persecution for their faith. Could so...

Love God. Love people. These two commandments comprise the entirety of God’s Law. The church at Ephesus was doing a lot of things right back in the First Century. This body of believers was committed to the truth of the Gospel, and they worked hard to share it with the world. But the Lord had one thing against them, and, as you’ll see today, it was a pretty big problem! Stay with us now as Ron mov...

If Jesus wrote a letter to your home church, what might He say? Today, Ron takes us to the book of Revelation, and to the first of seven letters to the seven churches in First Century Asia Minor. First on the list is the church at Ephesus, for which Jesus had both praise and criticism. As you follow along today, see if you find any similarities between the church at Ephesus, and the church you att...

Now, we see through a glass darkly, but then: face to face. The world got a glimpse of Jesus Christ two thousand years ago.  He was Divine but also fully human, and, for our sake, He temporarily emptied Himself of the full weight of His glory. But one day we will see Him as He truly is, the glorified Jesus coming in the clouds to set things right once and for all. Stay with us now as Ron continues...

No one knows the day or the hour in which Jesus Christ will return. But we’re closer to it now than we were yesterday! You know, the Bible tells us that Christ will return soon. Even two thousand years ago, in the book of Revelation, the Apostle John says the Lord’s Second Coming is near. Ron sheds some light on this seeming contradiction next, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “Ready for...

All over the world, believers in Christ look forward to His future return. But between this day and that, we need to be going about the business of being ready for His return. How can we do it? Find out next, as Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “Ready for His Return.”  

Right before He ascended into heaven, Jesus promised He would one day return. As believers in Christ, we look forward to that great and glorious day. We desire His return, we’re excited about it, the question is, are we ready for it? Over the next few weeks, Ron shows us what it looks like to be ready for the Lord’s Second Coming, as he shares his teaching series, “Ready For His Return, based on R...

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can crush your spirit. Great is the power of the human tongue. It can divide or unite, kill or give life. Today, Ron returns to the book of Proverbs to show us how we can use our tongues for good and not for evil, to build one another up instead of tearing one another down.

Solomon was the wisest man who ever lived other than Jesus Christ. So if he has something to say about money management, it’s a good idea to listen. You may not know it, but Ron’s undergraduate degree is in financial planning. Today, he uses that knowledge, plus some wisdom from the book of Proverbs, to share what he calls the ten-ten-eighty financial plan.  

True wisdom comes from God and God alone. And if we heed it, it always leads to a healthier, more joyful life. Coming up next on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us to the book of Proverbs to share some godly wisdom about our personal finances. 

Attention all parents, God has given you a special brand of wisdom and insight as it concerns your children. Do not shy away from sharing it. Throughout the book of Proverbs, Solomon trains his son to make wise decisions about the friends he chooses, about sexual purity, about money management, in short, about living life God’s way. The message is clear, we as parents have been charged with the ta...

The book of Proverbs is designed to help believers in Christ grow in knowledge and wisdom, and then to take that wisdom and pass it down to the next generation. That’s what Solomon did for his son, and that’s where we’re headed next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”  

For the past few days here on Something Good, Ron has been looking at what the book of Proverbs says about sexual immorality. Along the way, we’ve seen how slowly and subtly sexual temptation can lead to sexual sin and, if we’re not careful, sexual addiction. How can we avoid these issues? Find out next as Ron continues his series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”

Sexual temptation seldom overtakes you all at once. It comes in stages, each one more dangerous than the one before. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us through the stages of seduction and reminds us that for anyone who is in Christ, there is always a way of escape. 

God created sex for two reasons: recreation and reproduction, and for two people, a man and his wife. Today, Ron takes us to the Old Testament book of Proverbs, both to remind us of God’s design for sex and to warn us of the consequences of venturing outside His will. It’s all part of his continuing series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life,” and it comes your way next. 

The world spends an awful lot of time talking about money and sex. As it happens, so does God. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us directly to God’s Word, specifically the book of Proverbs, to give us God’s instruction regarding sexual intimacy, something the world has and continues to pervert. 

What’s true about our finances is true of life in general. Those who live the best lives are the ones who give their lives away. Coming your way next, Ron takes a look at what it means to live successfully in the area of our personal finances, as he continues his teaching series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life."

The world defines success in terms of individual achievement. But God’s ways are not our ways. Today, Ron continues his teaching series from the book of Proverbs, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.” As you follow along, pay special attention to the keys to living a successful life. These are practical steps, seemingly simple steps, but following them is not as easy as you might think.  

Are you a treasure hunter? Are you willing to seek after godly wisdom with perseverance and passion? The Bible tells us that we will seek God and find Him if we seek Him with all our heart. Today, Ron reminds us of what the pursuit of wisdom looks like. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.  

Coming up next on today’s edition of Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us once again to the book of Proverbs to explain the true value of wisdom. Now wisdom isn’t as easy to find as your wallet or your car keys, it takes some hard work and perseverance. But the rewards of godly wisdom are well worth the sacrifice.
