Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

When Jesus said “I am the good shepherd,” He gave us a beautiful picture of His character. He leads us patiently, protects us continually, and loves us unconditionally. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones explores these words as he continues his teaching series, “Why Jesus? Seven Reasons Why He Is Still The One And Only.”  

The day is coming when the door to salvation will close. But for now, it’s open to everyone. The Bible tells us that Jesus Christ is the door of the sheep, and that His sheep hear His voice. In what ways does He talk to us? That’s what we’ll discover today in John chapter ten, as Ron continues his series, “Why Jesus? Seven Reasons He Is Still The One And Only.”  

When you get right down to it, humility precedes salvation. You have to be humble enough to admit you’re not smart enough to live without direction from the Good Shepherd. Today, on Something Good, Dr. Ron Jones takes us to John chapter ten, where we find the third of Christ’s seven “I AM” statements.   

If you want to walk in the light today but don’t know how, you’ve come to the right place. In just a few moments, Ron takes a hard look at this hard saying of Jesus, one that will help you learn to follow the light, and walk in it continually.  

When Jesus said, “I am the Light of the world,” He was not only telling us something about Himself, but about the dark and desperate world in which we live. Today, on Something Good, Ron sheds a little light on the subject, as he continues his series “Why Jesus?  Seven Reasons He Is Still The One and Only.”  

What’s true of the body is true of the spirit. Knowledge of God cannot sustain intimacy with God. Today, Ron explores one of the hard sayings of Jesus, “I am the Bread of Life.” What did He mean? And how did those who were with Him respond to His words? 

Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus made several “I am” statements. I am the way, the truth, and the life. I am the vine. I am the door. But the first of these statements, from John chapter six, was “I am the bread of life.” Today, Dr. Ron Jones takes an in-depth look at these words as he moves forward with his series, “Why Jesus? Seven Reasons Why He Is Still The One And Only.”

It’s the most important question you’ll ever ask: who am I and why am I here? Coming up next, Ron takes us to Exodus chapter three to remind us that deciding who we’ll be in this life is far less important than knowing where we’ll be in the next.  

The world is filled with false gods and man-made idols. But there is only one “I AM.” Today, Ron begins his teaching series, “Why Jesus? Seven Reasons He Is Still The One And Only.” Along the way, you’ll discover not only who Jesus is, but why you should believe that He is who He claims to be.  

When we pray for a believer in Christ to be healed, God’s answer is always yes. Believe it or not, it’s true. When it comes to healing a born-again believer in Christ, the Lord’s answer is never no. This healing comes in three different ways, and Ron explains each of them today, as he wraps up his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”  

It’s one of the most frequently asked questions in the church. Why does God heal some and not others? In a manner of speaking, God does heal every believer in Christ. We’re either healed here, or else we’re healed in heaven. But in either case, we’re healed. Ron explores this subject today, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”  

Let me ask you, what do you think faith in Christ should look like during times of pain and suffering? In James chapter five, we’re told of four key decisions we can make to help us persevere through adversity in a way that glorifies God. Ron covered the first two in his last message, but he’ll circle back around to them today, and before he’s through, you’ll have a good understanding of all four. 

Jesus said it Himself. In this life you will have trouble. It sure would be nice if life were nothing but picnics and circuses. But the sad truth is all this world can promise us is one battle after another. The question is this: is your faith strong enough to endure pain and suffering and still let the world see the Jesus in you? Today’s message from James chapter five is straight ahead.  

God never asked her to give away all her money. She did it, anyway. Today, Ron takes us to a familiar story from the life of Christ. He and the disciples went to the temple, and they witnessed one of the most beautiful things you’ll ever see. That story and more come your way next, as Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”  

Failing to plan is better than failing to pray. But God never said you can’t do both. Nothing wrong with setting goals for yourself or having a vision for your life. But God should always be the most important part of the planning process.
