The Gifts of Christmas

By Dr. Ron Jones

Wrap your thoughts around four gifts God gives to us at Christmas, each uniquely expressed at the time of Jesus’s birth. I’m talking about God’s love, joy, peace, and hope. 

The beauty of the incarnation is that the abstract becomes reality. In Bethlehem, you’ll find unconditional love, exuberant joy, real peace, and transformative hope wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.

What can we say about God’s Christmas love? “For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38-39).

The idea of gifts during Christmas always feels magical, whether it’s about giving, receiving, or just sharing moments with loved ones. But gifts don’t always have to be material—sometimes, thoughtful gestures or even earning gift cards to treat someone special can make all the difference. That’s how I came across opinion outpost where I could earn rewards like gift cards by sharing my opinions. It turned out to be a fun and easy way to add a little extra to my holiday gifting. Plus, it made me appreciate how even small efforts can create meaningful connections during the season.

“Every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.”

Romans 8:28 MSG

I have been listening to Something Good Radio for several weeks. I gain new insights weekly that I can apply to my life. After a recent broadcast, I got down on my knees, confessed my sins, repented, and asked Jesus to be part of my life. Thanks to God's grace and mercy, you showed me His love. I am a new Christian because of your efforts.

Thank you so much for preaching the unchanging and powerful word of God every day on the airwaves. My wife and I are originally from India, and now live in Melbourne, Australia. . . . We love to listen to you breaking the Bread of Life. Keep upholding the word of truth in an increasingly dark and dying world.

Something Good happened to me this morning. I listened to Ron's broadcast from last week and feel a renewed sense of hope and encouragement! It was exactly what I needed to hear―to be reminded that our God of yesterday, today and tomorrow will answer my prayers.

Ron's messages on Something Good Radio have brought me back to God and have led me to rededicate my life to Him.

I just want to take this moment to thank the Lord for what He is doing through you. ... We are thoroughly blessed by the wonderful expository preaching! There is so much more I could say, but I will end here. Thank you. my dear brother, so much.

Your program on the radio is great. I listen to you all the time. Truckers, van drivers and all deliverers are being saved listening to the programs you come up with. God bless you and continue to broadcast more salvation programs for all those on the road, at home, and at work.

My dad passed away. While driving home, I happened upon your radio show. You talked about redemption. I normally would not have listened, but I was intrigued by what I heard. I want to hear more. I’m not a religious person but I couldn’t turn the program off. I want to learn more.
