Some people say their glass is half empty. Others prefer to call it half full. But, in case you didn’t know, there is a third option. In Psalm twenty-three verse five, David says, “My cup runneth over.” It’s a testament to the never-ending generosity of God, the Good Shepherd. And if you’re a believer in Christ, David’s Good Shepherd is your Good Shepherd. Stay ...
Speaking to God in Psalm twenty-three, verse five, King David says, “You anoint my head with oil.” What does that mean for us in practical terms? Perhaps more than you might have guessed. Coming your way next, Ron takes an in-depth look at what this anointing oil produces in our lives, as he continues his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.”&nb...
Shepherds will often anoint a sheep’s head with oil to fend off disease. God does the same thing when He anoints your head with oil. If the rod and staff are part of God’s toolbox, anointing oil is part of God’s first aid kit. What does that mean for us in our relationship with God? Find out next, as Ron continues in his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with Th...
“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” That’s Psalm twenty-three, five, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, King David had his fair share of enemies. And, if you’re a believer in Christ, so will you. But as you’ll see today, your real enemy might not be who you think it is. Stay with us now as Ron continues his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: ...
In Psalm twenty-three verse five, King David says, “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” Well, you don’t have to be a foodie to know that if God’s making dinner, it will be the best meal you’ve ever had. Coming your way next, Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “Psalm Twenty-Three and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.” Along the way, he&rsquo...
Shepherds have two critical tools with them at all times: a rod and a staff. King David writes about these tools when he tells God, the Good Shepherd, “Your rod and your staff comfort me.” In our last broadcast, Ron talked about the rod of correction and protection. Today, he turns his attention to the Good Shepherd’s staff, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Goo...
The tools of the Shepherd’s trade, on today’s Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Today, we come to the second half of Psalm twenty-three, verse four, “thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” How does the Lord use these tools in our lives? And how does He use them in a way that brings us comfort? Find out next, as Ron continues in his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good...
The phrase “fear not” is found three hundred and sixty-five times in the Bible, one for each day of the year. One of the reasons God spends so much time telling us not to be afraid is because in the flesh, we’re prone to being afraid. Fear of death. Fear of the valley. Fear of failure. Fear of success. How does fear compete with faith? And what did King David say about fear? Find out next,...
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for you are with me. Psalm twenty-three, verse three tells us that God leads us down the path of righteousness. And then, suddenly, in verse four, we’re told that the path of righteousness sometimes takes us to a valley, a dangerous and frightening place, but a place where King David says he has no fear because the Lord is with him. I...
“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is a way to death.” That’s Proverbs fourteen, twelve, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones.

Ron shows you how next, as he continues his series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.&rdqu...
Have you ever been stuck in a rut? Are you stuck in one now? Dr. Ron Jones wants to help you get out. You know, sheep will often keep going back to the same grazing location until there’s nothing left for them to eat. And even then, they’ll keep going back. Sounds a bit like what we’ve all done from time to time, repeating the same mistakes over and over, even after the thrill was gone. But Ron hasgood news f...
You can restore a piece of furniture, a musical instrument, or even a house. But only God can restore a soul. Psalm twenty-three, verse three begins with these four words: “He restores my soul.” Today, Ron takes an in-depth look at what this restoration process looks like, as he continues his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.”
If you’ve ever made a mistake from which you thought you’d never recover, if you’ve ever wandered so far away from God you weren’t sure how to get back, Dr. Ron Jones has some good news for you today. The first phrase of Psalm twenty-three, verse three, says, “He restores my soul.” Today, Ron shows us what that restoration looks like, how a merciful, forgiving,loving God offers hope and heal...
Come unto me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. That’s Matthew eleven, twenty-eight, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. We see a sentiment much like the one Jesus made in Matthew when we turn to Psalm twenty-three, verse two, “He makes me lie down in green pastures.” King David is not talking only about rest, but about nourishment for th...
Life can be hectic. Between the long commutes, the frantic work weeks, family obligations, and church involvement, it’s a miracle we ever find time to rest. But God not only wants to give you rest, but He also wants to give you nourishment for your soul, the kind of sustenance that increases your joy level as well as your energy level. Today, Ron takes us to a familiar passage in the book of Psalms, where King ...
Looking for a little satisfaction today? You can have it, but you’ve got to look in the right place. Well, the Rolling Stones wrote about it more than fifty years ago. Solomon wrote about it centuries before that. They all sought a little satisfaction yet couldn’t find it. But, there is a way to live a contented, satisfied life, and Ron tells you all about it next, as he continues his teaching s...

To get things started today, Ron takes us to John chapter ten and ...
