Poor and Happy, Part 2 24:58

1d ago24:58

24:58

The Christian life is a series of paradoxical ideas. The way up is down. The way to victory is to surrender. Coming up next, Ron continues his series, “Your Happy Place: Living The Beatitudes of Jesus,” by telling us what it looks like to be poor in spirit. As you follow along, remember, humility is the starting point for anyone who longs for the u…

God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. What does it look like to humble yourself before God? Jesus gave us part of the answer when He said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit."

The Pursuit of Happiness, Part 1 24:58

7d ago24:58

24:58

Whatever name you choose to give it—happiness, blessedness, joy—people pursue it in all sorts of ways. But pursuit is not the same as achievement. The God who created us has given us all the information we need to pursue, and achieve, happiness, and Ron shares it with us today as he begins his teaching series, “Your Happy Place: Living the Beatitud…

Acts: You Shall Be My Witnesses, Part 2 24:58

8d ago24:58

24:58

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the Earth.” Jesus spoke those words just before He ascended into heaven, and we find them recorded in Acts chapter one. This set the stage for all that followed. Ron takes us there next, as he cont…

Acts: You Shall Be My Witnesses, Part 1 24:58

9d ago24:58

24:58

You could argue that the church in the Book of Acts did more for the growth of Christianity than all the generations that have followed put together. How did they do it? Ron calls it the early church IPO, the initial public outpouring of the Holy Spirit. And it is through the power of the Holy Spirit that the first Christians were able to persevere…

John: Reasons to Believe, Part 2 24:58

10d ago24:58

24:58

Why should we believe that Jesus is exactly who He claims to be? Find out next, on this Monday edition of Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. The Gospel of John offers many reasons to believe that Jesus is who He said He was.

John: Reasons to Believe, Part 1 24:58

13d ago24:58

24:58

Seeing is believing. Or is it? Well, to hear the Apostle John tell it, it’s the other way around. Believing is seeing. This truth is echoed throughout the Bible, but the Gospel of John places special emphasis on belief, as well as the Person in whom we should believe. John ultimately takes us to the deep end of theology and philosophy, and we dive …

Luke: Behold the Man, Part 1 24:58

15d ago24:58

24:58

One of the things that makes the Gospel of Luke different from the rest of the Gospels is that Luke spends much of his time talking about Christ’s humanity. Yes, our Lord was and is fully God, but He was also fully human, a point Luke emphasizes throughout His Gospel account. Today, Ron takes us to the Gospel of Luke as he continues his teaching se…

Mark: He Came to Serve, Part 2 24:58

16d ago24:58

24:58

When Jesus came the first time, the Jews expected Him to be a warrior, one who would overthrow the Romans and usher in Israel's golden age. And one day that’s exactly what He will do. But that was not His original purpose. Isaiah chapter fifty-three points us to the purpose of Christ’s First Coming. Not as a soldier but as a servant who would defea…

You’re Missing It...And It’s Costing You Everything... - RTBP Episode 223 47:18

25d ago47:18

47:18

Arnold dives into the spiritual disconnect many believers experience between prayer and practical clarity—especially when it comes to money, decision-making, and daily life. Could it be that God has already answered your prayers—but you just haven’t been listening properly? Drawing from Proverbs 1:20–21, this conversation unpacks how divine wisdom …

A Cheerful Defense of the Gospel, Part 2 24:58

28d ago24:58

24:58

In Philippians three, verse ten, the Apostle Paul expresses a desire to share in the suffering of Jesus Christ. And for most of his thirty-five-year ministry, suffering is exactly what Paul endured. Coming up next, Ron takes us to Paul’s appearance before the Jewish Supreme Court. His life is on the line, but rather than defend himself, he defends …

24:58

If you were on trial for being a Christian, what would you say? How would you defend yourself? In Acts chapter twenty-two, the Apostle Paul appears before the Jewish Supreme Court, also known as the Sanhedrin. But rather than defend himself, he defends the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And he does it, surprisingly enough, with a cheerful attitude. Stay w…

Anxiety seems to be at an all-time high today. Pressures at work, pressures at home, the pressures of failure, and of success. But few people have endured the kind of pressure the Apostle Paul had to face. As Paul neared the end of his ministry, he made his way to Jerusalem to preach the Gospel. Shortly after Paul arrived, he was threatened by the …

Through the years, there have been thousands of books written on self-improvement, but very few on self-denial. Salvation is a free gift from God.

Grace is more than what God gives us. It’s who He is. If anyone understood the grace of God, it was the Apostle Paul.

“For I am not ashamed of the Gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.” The Apostle Paul wrote those words to the church in Rome, a few years before he made it there in person.

Light in a Dark World, Part 2 24:58

1M ago24:58

24:58

Jesus called His church the light of the world. And He called us to pierce this present darkness, not to avoid it. The Apostle Paul spent eighteen months getting the Corinthian church up and running. That means he didn’t just turn the light on, he left the light on. Today, Ron shares three key lessons from Paul’s time in Corinth, as he continues hi…

Light in a Dark World, Part 1 24:58

24:58

Before America had Las Vegas, ancient Greece had a Sin City of its own. During his thirty-five-year ministry, the Apostle Paul shined the light of Jesus Christ in some very dark places. But none was darker than the city of Corinth. Idolatry, immorality and sexual sin ran rampant. And yet, Paul not only took the Gospel to this den of depravity, he s…

If it were a crime to share your faith in Christ, would there be enough evidence to convict you? The Apostle Paul was no stranger to conflict. He proclaimed the Gospel of Jesus Christ wherever he went, and for that reason he was beaten three times, thrown in prison three times, and stoned at least once. None of that stopped him from sharing his fai…

Open and Closed Doors: Paul's Second Missionary Journey, Part 2 24:58

The Essential Gospel, Part 2 24:58

2M ago24:58

24:58

In the Christian faith, there are certain foundational truths that cannot be compromised. Others are open for debate, but what should those conversations look like?

The Christian faith is comprised of essential doctrines and non-essential doctrines. The trouble is, we don’t always agree on which ones are which. Well, this is hardly a new problem.

In a grand display of irony, Saul of Tarsus came to faith in Christ on his way to persecute believers in Christ.
