Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

“I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten.” That’s Joel, two, twenty-five, and this is Something Good. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Joel, a prophecy that speaks of devastation upon the nation of Israel, but also the promise of God’s Divine restoration. And when God restores, it always exceeds that which was once lost.

For the day of the Lord is coming. For it is at hand. What exactly is the day of the Lord? When will it take place? What does it mean for believers in Christ? What about those who don’t believe in Christ? For answers, Ron takes us to the book of Joel today as he continues his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.”

God’s grace and mercy are two sides of the same coin. By His grace He gives us what we don’t deserve. By His mercy He withholds what we do deserve. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Hosea, which gives us a beautiful picture of the mercy of God. Time and again the nation of Israel breaks its covenant with God through sin and rebellion. And yet, God...

Today, Ron launches Road Trip Number Five of his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.” We begin with the book of Hosea, in which we find two unusual love stories, one between Hosea and his wife, Gomer, the other between God and the nation of Israel.

It’s one of the most anticipated prophecies in the entire Bible, a seven-year season of tribulation followed by an eternity of triumph. And Dr. Ron Jones takes you there next, on this Thursday edition of Something Good. Today, Ron shares from the book of Daniel, and to a prophecy concerning events that will take place at the end of this age.

When enemies come against you or try to harm you, their actions reveal their character. They can also reveal your own. Well, it’s hard to get a good read on someone’s character until they face adversity. That’s when our true character is revealed. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Daniel to show us what genuine, godly character looks like.

Have you ever wondered if God may have left you? Does He sometimes seem silent or distant, impossible to reach? Coming your way next, Ron takes us to the book of Ezekiel as he continues his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.” Along the way, he’ll remind us of the promises God has made to Israel, and the promises He has made to all who have put...

“There is none like you among the gods, O Lord. Nor are there any works like Yours.” That’s Psalm eighty-six, verse eight … and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, the glory of God is a prominent theme in the book of Ezekiel. He describes the sum total of God’s divine nature, His attributes and His creative works. Coming up next, Ron takes us to...

What’s the difference between worldly sorrow and godly sorrow? Jeremiah has been called the weeping prophet. He was grief-stricken over the spiritual decline of God’s chosen nation Israel, and he wrote about it in the book of Lamentations. His was a godly sorrow, one that motivated him to encourage Israel to repent. Stay with us now as Ron continues his teaching series, “R...

When was the last time you experienced deep sorrow or grief? The prophet Jeremiah was grief-stricken over the spiritual decline of the nation of Israel. So he took pen to parchment and wrote the book of Lamentations, a passionate expression of sorrow or grief. But in the midst of all this sorrow, we find something else altogether. Hope. That’s where Ron takes us today … to a pl...

“For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.” That’s Jeremiah thirty-one, thirty-four, and this is Something Good. When Israel broke their covenant with God, the Lord kept His end of the bargain. He forgave them, He remembered their sin no more, and then He promised to one day launch a whole new covenant with them. Today, Ron ex...

God is always up to something good. And sometimes, He’s up to something new. Well, Jeremiah was called by God to be a prophet to the Jewish people at the age of twenty-one. He was tough, yet tender. Some have even called him the “weeping prophet.” Part of his message to Israel was that God would one day do a brand new thing for His chosen people. Ron takes us to...

But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. With those words, the prophet Isaiah showed us our deep need for salvation, and spoke of the only Person, Jesus Christ, who could give it to us. Ron explores two key ideas from the book of Isaiah today, the depravity of man,...

Today, Ron explores the book of Isaiah, the first of the Major Prophets of the Old Testament, and the first book in Road Trip Number Four of his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.” Pay close attention today. As Ron will tell you in just a few moments, if you master the book of Isaiah, you will understand the heart of God, and the heart of His...

If you expect marriage to be all sunshine and rainbows, it’s not all your fault. The truth is, you’ve been lied to. Hollywood movies and romance novels might lead married couples to believe that the honeymoon should never be over. Today, Ron takes us straight to God’s Word to show us that conflict is a very real, very natural issue in marriage. How does God instruct us to...

The world wants you to believe that marriage is a cultural construct. Don’t buy the lie. Well, the institution of marriage was created by God Himself. It was His idea. His blueprint. And the reason so many marriages are failing these days is because we’ve replaced His design with one our own. Today, Ron takes us back three thousand years, to a book of the Bible t...

Have you searched in vain for the meaning of life by exploring everything under the sun? If so, maybe it’s time you look  above  the sun. Today, Ron takes us once again to the book of Ecclesiastes as he continues his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.”

“Vanity of vanities. All is vanity.” Well, the author of that depressing line is none other than King Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived other than Jesus Christ. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Ecclesiastes, and to Solomon’s thoughts on the true meaning of life, as he continues his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible,”

What’s the difference between wisdom and knowledge. The book of Proverbs has been called a collection of short sentences based on long experiences. It's human author was King Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived other than Jesus Christ. But ultimately, the author is God Himself, and He longs to share His wisdom with all who have ears to hear it. Stay with us now as Ron c...

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. That’s Proverbs nine, ten, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. If you’re looking for wisdom, you’d be wise to read the book of Proverbs. Ron calls it counsel from heaven for conduct on Earth. Plenty of people can offer solid advice, and God tells us to seek counsel from friends and pastors and mentors. But fo...

Do you need to recharge your spiritual battery today? Do you need wisdom that can only come from an intimate relationship with God? If so, I invite you to join Dr. Ron Jones right now, on this Wednesday edition of Something Good. Coming your way next, Ron takes us to the book of Psalms, the second of the five Old Testament Wisdom books. Along the way, he’ll give you four k...

Many believers in Christ would say the book of Psalms is one of their two or three favorite books in the Bible. If you need to recharge your batteries or refuel your soul, the book of Psalms is the place to go. Ron takes us there today as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “Route 66: The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.”

If God answered all of our questions, we would never need faith. And without faith, it is impossible to please God. When Job lost his children and all his wealth, he never blamed God for any wrongdoing. But he did have plenty of questions, and he began to ask God for an explanation. Ron takes us to Job’s conversation with God next, as he continues his teachi...

It just might be the oldest story ever written, and it comes your way next, on this Friday edition of Something Good. He was a wealthy man, and a righteous man. He had a loving wife, ten healthy children, and all the land and riches a man could hope to have. But his life of prosperity was about to become a season of pain. Ron takes you to his story today as...

It’s one of the most well-known verses in the Old Testament, “And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” That Scripture comes from the book of Esther chapter four, verse fourteen. Ron takes us there today to remind us that the providence of God was not limited to the time of Mordecai and Esther. It still applies to us today, no matter...
