Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

If God is for us, who can be against us? That’s Romans eight, thirty-one, and this is Something Good. Well, that’s a rhetorical question. If God is for us, and He is, then no one can be against us. But that doesn’t stop the Devil from trying everything he can to steal, kill and destroy.

It’s been said that the greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he didn’t exist. The problem is, he does exist. He’s invisible, but very real, and his sole purpose is to destroy your relationship with God. How can we overcome his tactics and find victory? Answers come your way next on Something Good, as Dr. Ron Jones kicks off his teaching series, “Armored: Dressed...

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will towards men. Well, the world cannot always be at peace.  But you can. No matter what’s going on around you, you can always have peace within you. But there’s only one way to get it, and only one person who can give it.

Glory to God in the highest; and on Earth, peace, good will towards men. Well, Ron has some good news for you today as he continues his teaching series, “The Gifts of Christmas.” You don’t have to fight the crowds or the traffic to get the gifts God has for you.  He’ll deliver them right to your front door.

One depends on circumstances. The other can exist in spite of them. The difference between happiness and joy, on this Thursday edition of Something Good. What if I told you that joy is something you can choose? A gift from God, freely given, and you can have it simply by deciding to. Today, Ron talks about the difference between joy and happiness as he continues his s...

God has given us four wonderful gifts through His Son Jesus Christ. The first is His love, and in our last message, Ron gave us some great insight into that special gift. Today, he moves on to gift number two, the joy that only comes to those who believe in Jesus.

Nothing can keep you from the love of God, not even your own mistakes. The love of God is something we’ll never fully comprehend on this side of heaven. It’s incomprehensible, immeasurable, inseparable, and best of all, it’s unconditional. Today, Ron explores God’s unconditional love as he continues his series, “The Gifts of Christmas.”

For God so loved the world that He gave. Christmas is a time of giving, and it began more than two thousand years ago with God’s greatest gift to us, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Today, Ron begins his teaching series, “The Gifts of Christmas,” an in-depth look at four of the greatest gifts God offers all those who come to faith in Christ.

Whoever loves money never has enough. Whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. Those words of wisdom came from Solomon, in Ecclesiastes chapter five verse ten. Today, Ron explains how the love of money can wreak havoc in our relationship with God. It’s the final installment of his teaching series, “His Money, Your Faith,” and it comes your way next.

Jesus said, “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. In just a few moments, Ron continues his series, “His Money, Your Fa...

Have you fallen into the debt trap today? If you’d like to climb out but don’t know how, you’ve come to the right place. Today, Ron shares five practical steps to getting out of debt. They aren’t easy, but they are doable. And let’s face it, no matter how hard getting out of debt may be, it’s far easier than staying in it.

Today, Ron takes us to the all-too-familiar problem of consumer debt. Many people struggle to make ends meet, and part of the problem is they’ve made a bad choice or two along the way. How can you get debt free? What is God’s plan for your finances? Find out next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “His Money, Your Faith.”

When you look at your bank account, it may seem like you can’t afford to tithe. The truth is, you can’t afford not to. Today, Ron continues his series, “His Money, Your Faith” by giving us an in-depth look at God’s financial plan, what Ron calls the ten-ten-eighty plan. It’s biblical, it’s practical, and it’s essential for your financial health and your spir...

There are over two thousand verses in Scripture that have to do with money. If it’s that important to God, it should be equally important to us. God’s Word offers us several principles to help keep us from becoming slaves to debt. But as you’ll see today, financial freedom is not the only kind of freedom God offers us.

If you’re wondering if God cares about the way we use our money, consider this, the Bible contains more than two thousand verses on the subject. Money can often distract us from doing God’s will, and it has the potential to enslave us if we’re not careful. Today, Ron shares three keys to managing our finances God’s way as he continues his series, “His Money, Your Faith.”

When Pontius Pilate told Jesus that he had the authority to set Him free, Jesus said, “You would have no authority at all unless it was given to you from above.” Today, Ron reminds us that nothing we have is ours. We are stewards, not owners, of our money, our time, our talents. And when we learn to use our resources God’s way, we may be surprised by the results.

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.

Did you know that twenty percent of the book of Proverbs is devoted to the human tongue? That’s how seriously God takes the words we say. They have the power to heal or to harm, to comfort or to kill. Today on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones shares a few words about our words, as he continues his teaching series from the book of Proverbs, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”

What does your work ethic say about you? Are you a sluggard or an ant? Do you do what needs to be done on your own, or do you wait for someone to tell you to do it? God has a lot to say about the way we do what we do. And that’s where Ron takes us today as he continues his teaching series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”

Did you know that the old-fashioned American work ethic, the one we see all the way back in the eighteenth Century, was rooted in the pages of Scripture? It’s true, our founding fathers built America’s foundation on God’s Word, that includes the idea of rewarding people who were willing to work for what they had. Today, Ron will challenge you to take a good look at your own work ethic as he contin...

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.”
