Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

God opposes the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. We serve a merciful, patient and loving God, a Father who always gives us ample time to repent. But when pride persists, a fall is inevitable. Today’s message is straight ahead. Stay with us now as Ron continues his series, “Standing Strong.”

Today, Ron takes us once again to Daniel chapter three, and to one of the most extraordinary stories in the Bible.

How will you respond? Today, Ron takes us to Daniel chapter three, and to a familiar story that will show us what faith under fire should look like.

Centuries before the Roman Empire rose to prominence, God had already prophesied its eventual fall. Today, Ron takes us to Daniel chapter two, and to one of the most fascinating prophecies in the Bible. To the Babylonians, this was a future event. To you and me, it’s history. It’s a sobering reminder of God’s authority and sovereignty, and it comes your way next.  

Today, Ron takes us to Daniel chapter two, and to a critical moment in the life of both Daniel and the Babylonian empire. It’s a story about a dream, but more importantly, the interpretation of that dream, and the power of God to reveal the future to whomever He chooses. The series from Daniel 1-6 is called, “Standing Strong.”
