Rest and Refreshment for the Soul, Part 2

God Leads Us Along, Part 1

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 has good news for anyone who has ever wandered away from God and gotten stuck in this kind of rut. And he shares it next, in his continuing series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.”

Hope for Cast Down Sheep, Part 2

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 healing, even to those who have gone astray. And at one time or another, we’ve all gone astray.

Rest and Refreshment for the Soul, Part 2

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 the body as well as the soul. Ron takes us to this passage next, as he continues his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.”

Rest and Refreshment for the Soul, Part 1

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 David says, “He makes me lie down in green pastures.”  What does it mean? What does it look like in real life?
