Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

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 attend at home.  

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 his teaching series, “Ready for His Return,” based on Revelation chapters 1 to 3. 

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 His Return.”  

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 Revelation chapters 1 to 3.” 

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 continues his teaching series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”  

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.
