Podcasts about Something Good

What if the darkest seasons of your life are not evidence that God has abandoned you—but the very soil where He is quietly growing something good? This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I’m talking with my dear friend Nicole Jacobsmeyer, author of Something Good Will Grow. Through her experiences with cancer, miscarriage, depression, rejection, and other deep wounds, Nicole has learned that God’s goodness is not absent in our suffering—even when we cannot yet see what He is doing. Nicole shares the beautiful imagery of flowers that bloom at night, quietly opening in the darkness for an audience of One. Together, we talk about trusting God when life feels like more than we can handle, waiting when our prayers seem unanswered, wrestling honestly with doubt, and loving others well through seasons of suffering. If you are walking through a painful or uncertain season, I pray this conversation reminds you that you have not been forgotten. God is with you in the darkness, His grace is sufficient, and something good can still grow.

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.”

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.   

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.”  

In an email last week, Joe Pulizzi wrote in The Tilt newsletter how you could make any book, course, video, podcast, or other product better just by answering two questions. Those two questions (Does creating a thing bring something good into your live? and Does creating a thing make someone else's life better?) If you can answer YES to those two questions, you will create a great product that will impact your life and help your customers—and, thus, be the right product to create.In the song below, I've featured those two questions, plus subsidiary questions that you can ask yourself, so you create the best products that will sell.The best products live within the answers to those two questions. Again, if you can answer YES to both, you'll create something good. And that, ultimately, is what truly matters. Create something good today!Create Something Good lyricsDoes creating a thingBring something good into your life?Does it give you energy?Does it make you curious?Does it help you understand something?Would you still want to make itIf nobody was keeping score?If yes, check that boxDoes creating a thingMake someone else's life better?Does it solve a real problem?Does it help someone see differently?Does it make them laugh?Does it give them hope?Does it help them make better decisions?Answer yes, and you are loving othersYou are loving your audienceBy delivering something kind and trueThe best creative work livesWhere those two things overlapLove you and love your audienceKeep things simple and pureKeep things simple and trueThe best creative work livesWhere those two things overlapLove you and love your audienceKeep things simple and pureKeep things simple and trueBook Marketing Success is a reader-supported publication.

A listener had a mortifying public moment...and somehow ended up on a date because of it. You'll have to hear the full story to believe it. It’s so crazy and we’d feel so embarrassed, but also grateful?? Haha. We hear from a caller who confesses she pre-cleans her house before the cleaners arrive, and yes, you are not alone if you do this too. A listener encourages Amy to cut her hair, plus we answer a question that was asked by many: what is a drink dropper?! We also get into a tricky question from a listener who works as an overnight cleaner: she found something disturbing left behind by a group of teens at a school she cleans, and now feels strangely embarrassed to even report it to her male supervisor. We try to unpack where that shame is coming from. Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE! (FeelingThingsPodcast.com) Sign up for the Feeling Things newsletter HERE! Watch us on Youtube HERE!

It is appointed to man once to die, and--after that—the judgment. That's Hebrews nine, twenty-seven, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. At the end of days, there will be not one, but two separate judgments. The Great White Throne Judgment, and The Judgment Seat of Christ. What will these judgments look like, and who will be judged?  Ron has answers today as he wraps up his teaching series, “Heaven: The Father's House and My Eternal Home.”  

The full Loopy Looper recap is here. Bryana and Michael go deep on their individual races. Bryana covers her chaotic morning, from a closed Wawa, blood on the floor, arriving 15 minutes before the start, no water for the first loop, cramping and lung struggles through the first half, a Tylenol-and-Alani turning point at loop six, Ryan's heroic crewing debut (including getting screamed at for the Vaseline), a crotch rocket motorcycle on the race trail, and crossing the finish line on loop 10 in just under 11 hours. Michael recaps his 40-mile day, waking up sick at 3am, acid reflux from allergies spiraling into nausea, Frito rescue attempts, and the decision to DNF with his feet and legs still feeling strong. The crew also gives a shoutout to Vanessa for completing Badwater 135. Berlin Marathon training updates follow: Diana ran 18 miles in Luray, Virginia and is recovering from the crud. Tom is getting ready for Charles St 12. Something Good covers Widows Bay, Cape Fear (TV), Beef Season 2, the Wicker trailer, Little House on the Prairie, and the new Spider-Man.

"Come now, you rich, weep and wail for the misery that is coming upon you." That's James five, verse 1, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, you may think those words are reserved for the one-percenters. Wealthy men and women who have come to love money more than God. But maybe, just maybe, he's talking to me and you as well. Stay with us now as Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”  

The difference between planning and presumption on today's Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. To one degree or another, all of us are planners. We make business plans, wedding plans, and retirement plans. The Lord Himself is a God of order and structure, so there's nothing wrong with goal-setting or schedule-making. The question is: what should the attitude behind those plans be? The book of James has much to say on the subject, and Ron shares it with us next, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”   

In Friday's brief Marc is joined by Matthew to dive into the facts behind the developing story on a local St. Louis Councilwoman who is accused of moving political signs for a local race, with the claim that the decision was political in nature. And in a rare positive story for the City of St. Louis, they have received a grant to help train local teens in the trades and AI literacy instead of wasting their time with an overpriced educational system.

You did something good for yourself, a massage, an hour off, a class you have always wanted to take, and then the guilt showed up like you had done something wrong. In this solo episode, JoAnn names exactly what is happening (she calls it the guilt slide) and walks you through how to catch it and step off before it takes down your day or your relationships. In this episode, you'll learn: How to spot the "guilt slide," the moment a good thing you did for yourself turns into proof you did something wrong Why that guilt is a sign something is new for you, not a sign you are selfish or broken The one move that protects your closest relationships when the guilt hits, and why it is not asking "are you mad at me?" Three self-compassion steps to wait out the discomfort instead of projecting it onto everyone around you A simple way to redirect your brain so the feeling passes faster Resources mentioned in this episode: "This Isn't a Sketchbook, its an Art Class" drawing workbook Podcast Episode: Why the ADHD Parenting Advice Doesn't Work (the RSD episode) The Happy Mom Reset, JoAnn's free class New here?

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. That's Isaiah fifty-five, eight, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Anytime we're in conflict with someone, we're far better off asking the Lord how to handle it. God's way is always better than a good way. So what exactly is God's way to handle our disagreements?  

Plus: DOJ Issues Subpoenas for NYT Qatar Plane Coverage. Jay Z is back. World Cup Final Four. MLB Allstar Game is Something Good. No guests today — just Paul Rieckhoff, coming to you from a brutally hot New York City with the five I's to keep you cool: independence, integrity, information, inspiration, and impact. The top story is a shock: Lindsey Graham, the 71-year-old South Carolina senator and staunch Trump ally, has died. Paul reflects on a complicated legacy — the man who voted to send him to war, drilled in the reserves as a sitting senator, disappointed vets by voting against the post-9/11 GI Bill, and eventually folded fully into Trump land, but who stood with Ukraine when it mattered. His pitch: pass Graham's Russia sanctions bill now and name it in his honor. He also flags the deeper problem with naming an inexperienced family member to a Senate seat that votes on war and peace, checks in on a silent, recovering Mitch McConnell, and breaks down Trump's reignited Iran war — the worst ceasefire ever, 140 targets hit over the weekend, and "President Mayhem" at his peak while markets churn. Then the throughline Paul says you can't look away from: ICE running rampant. Two more people killed in a week — in Biddeford, Maine, and in Houston — with DHS slow to explain and accountability nowhere in sight. Believe your eyes, he says: this is unlawful, unaccountable, and un-American, and shutting ICE down is a patriotic stance, not a partisan one — especially with the specter of the Insurrection Act looming. Paul also hits Trump's escalating war on the press (grand-jury subpoenas to the New York Times reporters who covered the Qatari-gifted Air Force One), some good news from the courts holding the line, a quick primary-season heads-up, and — because it's summer — Jay-Z at Yankee Stadium, a World Cup down to four headed for MetLife, and the "something good" of the MLB All-Star Game in Philly.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue. That's Proverbs eighteen, twenty-one, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Sticks and stones can break your bones, but words can crush your spirit. All the more reason to choose our words wisely, to build people up, not tear them down.

How long can you hold the story of everything working out perfectly in absence of the evidence? That's a master manifesting skill: to stick to the good story even before reality catches up .... Even when an orphan feral escapes, even when you wake up heavy-hearted, even when it looks different than you wanted ... holding the good story no matter the circumstance is the heart of conscious creation. This episode is real-time practice.

Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. That's First Corinthians two, nine, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, in Psalm twenty-three, King David wrote about his future dwelling place, his eternal home in heaven with God. Today, Ron gives us a glimpse, but only a glimpse, of what that home might be like. Let's listen closely as he wraps up his teaching series, “Psalm Twenty-Three and Me: Living the Good Life With the Good Shepherd.”  

If you've ever gone house hunting, you've seen your share of starter homes, single-family homes, even dream homes. But today you'll hear all about your forever home, right here on Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, in the last sentence of the last verse of Psalm twenty-three, King David writes, “And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” What did he mean when he wrote that sentence? For answers, stay with us now as Ron continues in his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with the Good Shepherd.”  

“Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life.” That's Psalm twenty-three, verse six, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, if you're a believer in Christ, the Lord's goodness and mercy will follow you all the days of your life, too, even on the days when He seems far away. Today, Ron explains how the goodness and mercy of God work together for our good, as he continues his series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with the Good Shepherd.”  

Rebecca's sermon this week covered Luke 4:14 - 21, some Seminary 101 vocab words, the Golden Girls theme song, and lessons learned by pausing for CTA trains.

“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: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.” 

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 Shepherd.”

In 1898, vaudeville actors Saint Suttle and Gertie Brown joyously embraced in a short silent film titled Something Good—Negro Kiss. The first known film to portray African American affection, it was lost for over a century until its rediscovery inspired contemporary audiences with a powerful and enduring depiction of Black love. More than a missing piece in an untold history of Black cinematic performance, Something Good—and the magnetism of Suttle and Brown—attests to the power of Black performance on stage and screen from the nineteenth century to today. In Acts of Love: Black Performance and the Kiss That Changed Film History (University of California Press, 2026), Allyson Nadia Field tells the story of Something Good and recovers the forgotten yet fascinating lives of its performers and their world. Drawing a vivid picture from sparse historical records, Acts of Love examines popular culture's negotiation of blackness to reconsider the intersections of minstrelsy, vaudeville, and cinema in ragtime America. This book not only presents the story of Something Good, its performers, and the drama of its rediscovery; it shows how the rediscovery of this short early film changes our understanding of American film history.

More than a missing piece in an untold history of Black cinematic performance, Something Good—and the magnetism of Suttle and Brown—attests to the power of Black performance on stage and screen from the nineteenth century to today. In Acts of Love: Black Performance and the Kiss That Changed Film History (University of California Press, 2026), Allyson Nadia Field tells the story of Something Good and recovers the forgotten yet fascinating lives of its performers and their world. Drawing a vivid picture from sparse historical records, Acts of Love examines popular culture's negotiation of blackness to reconsider the intersections of minstrelsy, vaudeville, and cinema in ragtime America. This book not only presents the story of Something Good, its performers, and the drama of its rediscovery; it shows how the rediscovery of this short early film changes our understanding of American film history.

“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. If the way you thought was right turns out to be wrong, how can you make things right again? You do it by obeying the Holy Spirit. Ron shows you how next, as he continues his series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life with The Good Shepherd.”

On todays porch talk I'll share a Saturday porch conversation about boredom, asking when I last let myself be truly bored without reaching for a phone, TV, or other noise. While camping in a new camper, I noticed my impulse to fill the quiet with Wi‑Fi, screens, and music, but choosing to stay in the stillness helped creativity come back to life and reminded me of childhood moments when being sent outside to “figure it out” led to play, wandering, and even writing music. I connect this to neuroscience and the brain's default mode network, which supports creativity, problem-solving, and self-reflection, and to the biblical idea of being still. I challenge myself to stop solving boredom so fast, and I invite listeners to complete a short survey about content preferences and join an open summer conversation call.CLICK HERE TO TAKE OUR SURVEY FREE RESOURCES:Listen to our sister podcast the REALIFE Practice Podcast on your favorite podcast app!Ready to discover what uniquely matters to YOU?

The YouTube-only hour of the show started off with more reaction to one of the biggest trades in NFL History, Myles Garrett getting traded from the Cleveland Browns to the LA Rams. Plus, ESPN Cleveland's Tony Rizzo called in to tell Sedano and Kap how the city of Cleveland has lost yet another mega sports star. Then, Sedano had breaking news involving Aaron Donald's possible comeback. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

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.” 

Psalm twenty-three is one of the most famous chapters in all the Bible. Dr. Ron Jones takes you there next, in today's edition of Something Good. Well, you may have already read Psalm twenty-three dozens of times, might have even memorized it. But did you know that Psalm twenty-three is the second of a trio of Psalms that form one complete unit? Stay with us now to learn more, as Ron moves forward with his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life With The Good Shepherd.” 

“I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.” That's John ten, verse eleven, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, what did Jesus mean when He said He is the Good Shepherd?  And what is it that makes Him good? Answers come your way next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “Psalm 23 and Me: Living the Good Life With The Good Shepherd.” 

Deal Team Six?? Pentagon Releases UFO/UAP Files. Antisemitic Firebomber Gets Life. Stupid Tariffs Ruled Illegal. Dems Slammed in VA. Charlemagne vs Dana White. Bigfoot in Ohio. WNBA Season Begins. Happy Mother's Day!   The truce isn't a truce. The U.S. Navy is firing on Iranian-flagged oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, gas is climbing toward five bucks a gallon in Ohio, and Trump is on record saying he's fine with $200-a-barrel oil — as long as the war grinds on. Meanwhile, the administration is hauling Senator Mark Kelly back into court to silence a decorated Navy combat veteran and astronaut, sending a clear message to two million military retirees and every troop in uniform: shut up and fall in line. Paul Rieckhoff delivers a solo Friday briefing on what the MAGA machine is actually doing while you're trying to plan Mother's Day brunch. From the Pentagon's convenient new tranche of UFO files dropping the same week the Epstein files pressure builds, to Don Jr. and Eric landing Air Force drone contracts through their American Venture firm, to a Virginia court torching the Democrats' redistricting gambit — this episode lays out how the rigged two-party system keeps failing the angry middle. Paul also gets into Dana White's bogus apolitical act, Olivia Pichardo making NCAA D1 baseball history, and why the spirit of America's mothers — perseverance, humility, and the golden rule — is exactly the operating system this country needs right now.  -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Check out Tracy Bonham and Steady Buckets for Something Good. -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

We talk about the cross, the resurrection, and the blood of Jesus … But how does it actually apply to your life? Can it help overcome fear when fear's holding you back? And what does it really mean to live covered by the blood — every day? In this Walk It Out Wednesday conversation, we continue our journey on the road to Pentecost — breaking down how what happened after the resurrection impacts your faith, your perspective, and your everyday life. In this message, you'll discover how to: • Trust God even when you don't understand what He's doing. • Apply the covering of Jesus to real-life situations. • Recognize God's presence, even in grief, fear, and uncertainty. • Choose faith daily — although fear might try to hold you back. If you've been trying to connect what you believe to how you actually live, this conversation brings clarity, perspective, and a renewed confidence in what Jesus has already done.

What do you do when everything around you seems to tell you nothing good is coming? News cycles filled with uncertainty. Personal setbacks. Moments that don't make sense. And yet God's word still stands, telling us: Something good is about to happen. Touré Roberts unpacks the deeper truth behind Jeremiah 29:11 — one of scripture's most well-known promises. It wasn't spoken in comfort — it was spoken in crisis. If you're holding on to hope in unpredictable times, discover how: • God is already ahead of your situation. • You can win the battle in your thoughts. • You were created for clarity, not confusion. This is the moment God restores your clarity. Get ready to step out of confusion and back into flow. Something good is about to happen.
