Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

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.  

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. But a fool despises wisdom and instruction. In our last broadcast, Ron introduced us to Lady Wisdom. The book of Proverbs tells us we need to listen to lady wisdom, and respond to lady wisdom. But there are two more things we need to do with wisdom, and that’s where we pick it up today as Ron continues his series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”  

Do you remember the old E. F. Hutton commercials? When E. F. Hutton talks, people listen? Well, when Lady Wisdom talks, it’s a good idea to listen to her as well. Today, Ron takes us once again to the book of Proverbs as he continues his series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.” 

In our last broadcast, Ron took us to Proverbs chapter one to talk about the importance of choosing the right kind of friends, like-minded believers in Christ who can encourage us in our faith. As he continues the message today, he’ll tell us how to go about doing just that. 

There are good ideas, and God ideas. Good relationships, and God relationships. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones continues his teaching series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.” Along the way he’ll remind us that the enemy will often use other people, acquaintances, classmates, co-workers, even friends, to tempt us to go astray.  

Go to any bookstore in America, and you’ll find thousands of books filled with maxims, axioms and wise sayings. But not all proverbs are created equal. Coming your way next, Ron takes us to the preeminent source of wisdom, the Old Testament book of Proverbs, as he continues his series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”   

When Solomon wrote the book of Proverbs, he gave us a garden of wisdom, but he did so without the flowery speech. He was a champion of brevity, clarity and wisdom, and his writings give us practical advice on virtually every aspect of our day to day lives. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones begins an in-depth look at the book of Proverbs in his series, “Wise Sayings: Guidance For Everyday Life.”  

Did you know that your prayers could be hindered? Prayer can move mountains. But there are a handful of hindrances that can make your prayer life an uphill climb. Today, Ron covers these barriers to prayer next, as he wraps up his teaching series, “Armored: Dressed for Victory in Spiritual Warfare.” 

In Ephesians chapter six, the Apostle Paul tells us about the armor of God. There are six pieces in all, each uniquely crafted to help us win the invisible war with Satan. In just a few moments here on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us to the end of Ephesians chapter six, to the point where we’re fully dressed and ready for battle, to explain the critical role prayer plays in holding everything together. Today’s message comes your way next. Stay with us now for Ron’s continuing series, “Armored: Dressed For Victory In Spiritual Warfare.” 

And be not conformed to the image of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Those words from Romans twelve, verse two, tell us that as our mind is renewed through time in God’s Word and in prayer, it has the power to transform us, and to prevent us from the enemies’ attempt to poison our minds with his lies. Ron has more next, as he continues his teaching series, “Armored: Dressed for Victory in Spiritual Warfare.”
