Beth Jones International Speaker

This morning as I drank coffee with our cat Nichodemus in our sunroom, I saw a beautiful little hummingbird flying around our full Rose of Sharon flower bush. Nichodemus and I watched it with interest. Hummingbirds, as well as bees, butterflies, birds, cats, and other creations, are miraculous. Jesus Christ has done many miracles in my and my family's lives, and I am believing for more. Do you or a loved one need a miracle from God?Scriptures:Matthew 9:27-31 (2 blind men healed)Luke 5:12-14, ESV (Leper healed)Matthew 9:1-8 (Paralyzed man healed)Mark 5:25-34 (Woman with issue of blood healed)John 20:30 (Jesus' many miracles & books)My Kindle eBook, Miracles: God's Extraordinary Work in Our Everyday Lives, available for sale on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Miracles-Gods-extraordinary-everyday-lives-ebook/dp/B0CB5D5S6HJoin Lakyn Fuller and me and other women of God for our Fall's Glory & Harvest women's event in Butler, Missouri, on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 11 am - 2 pm CST

This morning as I asked God about a podcast topic, I sensed that He said to me, 'Pay attention!" I asked, "Pay attention to what?" He then spoke the verse to me Matthew 22:37-40, NLT:"Jesus answered him, "Love the LORD God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important commandment. And the second is like it. Love your neighbor as yourself. All of Moses' Teachings and the Prophets depend on these commandments."Scriptures:Genesis 1:27Ephesians 2:10, NLTMatthew 6:33Luke 5:16, GWTMatthew 1:35Jeremiah 15:16Psalm 29:21 Samuel 15:22Exodus 20:8-111 John 4:71 Peter 5:8-9Pay attention to and love God, others, and yourself, and pay attention to the world around you..My books:Metamorphosis: Transformed From Hate to Love, available as a Kindle eBook on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Metamorphosis-Transformed-Hate-Beth-Jones-ebook/dp/B07BTYBB8G/Write Your Book: Getting Past the Messy Middle, available as a Kindle eBook on Amazon

Do you need more joy in your life? How can you and I have joy in every season of life, even during hard times? I've been walking through a dark, scary valley for the last year and a half. I believe with all my heart that God is going to bring me out of it. He can and will do this for you, too, as you follow and obey Jesus and trust in Him.. Listen as I share how the apostle Paul encouraged us to have joy, no matter what hardships we are facing. He was arrested and imprisoned multiple times, beaten, stoned, lashed, shipwrecked 3 times, hungry, thirsty, and persecuted for his faith in Jesus Christ - yet he is the one who encouraged us to always rejoice and wrote, "Celebrate God all day, every day . I mean, revel in Him!" (Philippians 4:4, MSG)Today let God fill you with His joy to strengthen you.Scriptures:Psalm 16:11Romans 12: 1-2, MSGPhilippians 4:4 NKJV, MSG, TPTInspiring quote:"Joy is an infallible sign of the presence of God." - Pierre Tellhard de ChardinMy book:Walking with God: Th

Are you in a hard place right now? I'm right there with you in a dark, scary valley.

Join Beth Jones as she interviews Rick and Doreen Penner sharing about leading a small group Bible study in their home in Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada. Rick and Doreen speak about how they got started doing small groups and why they began; what they do during the weekly meetings; what not to do when leading one; and testify about the great impact this has had on them as leaders and on the attendees, such as one woman who went on a mission trip.

When you say "Yes" to God, miraculous things happen. When they were younger, Craig and his wife Jennifer worked two and three jobs to save money, then sold everything they had to have exciting adventures, traveling the world in 76 countries. As they traveled, they saw many hungry children with no or little education having to work to help support their families (such as one child selling chickens on the side of the road), the atrocity of trafficked children, and other heart breaking things. Fast forward many years, and now they travel the world again as missionaries for Jesus, but with the help of the amazing Manna Worldwide organization, which has been rescuing children from the grip of poverty for 25 years and does so much more. Listen on this episode to a few of the powerful stories that Craig shares as he and his wife traveled the globe for Christ, including adopting children in need to become part of their own family, keeping hungry children from being trafficked, witch doctors being saved thro

Goodbye 2025 (hard but necessary lessons) and Happy New Year 2026. Numbers are important and significant in the Bible. The Hebrew numerical value of 26 is God's sacred name, YHWH. It symbolizes God's divine presence and perfection. In Numbers 26, a census of Israel was taken. It marked the new generation to enter the Promised Lane - a people prepared for their inheritance of blessings from God. In 2026, we will experience God's presence with us and our inheritance of blessings as we walk in obedience to God and His Word.I also share about my "one word" for 2026, anchor, my verse, and my song ("The Anchor Holds"). What is yours? I encourage you to set aside time today or tonight to pray about the coming new year 2026, for God's presence to be with you and your family, for His protection, divine health, prosperity, wisdom, and guidance. At the end of this video, I pray for you. Have a blessed last day of 2025 and a Happy, Blessed New Year 2026.Scriptures:Numbers 26Hebrews 6:1

What is your one-word, your Scripture verse, and your song for 2026? At the end of each year, I look back and see what went well, what didn't, and pray about and plan for the coming new year. Usually, the way I receive the word is an impression from God, seeing or hearing a word or a phrase repeatedly, through a song, or other ways. Listen to this week's new, short episode as I share my one-word, Scripture verse, and song for 2026.Scripture references in video:Hebrews 6:19, NLTActs 27:13-44The book I mentioned in this episode - Walking With God: Walking Through the Valley of the Shadow (KDP eBook available for sale at Amazon):https://www.amazon.com/Walking-God-Through-Valley-Shadow-ebook/dp/B0FC17QX4R/Thank you so much for listening today.

Jesus told us in Matthew 6:33, "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." We as Christian believers often think that the Kingdom of God (and using our spiritual gifts, talents, and skills) means just inside the four walls of the church that we attend. But God wants us to bring His Kingdom everywhere we go, out into the marketplace, because His Kingdom (His Holy Spirit) is inside of us.In this episode, Herb and Diane Bishop speak about the power of Marketplace Ministry, using our gifts in the world, even in their jobs as realtors.

In John 8:12 (ESV), Jesus said, "I AM the Light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” In today's episode, guest speaker Elizabeth Zacharias shares how Jesus is the Light and that we as Christian believers are to be light, too, to a world in spiritual darkness. We discuss what this means on a practical level, such as sharing God's love, kindness, and meeting needs with everyone we meet - at Walmart, the post office, the grocery store, with our spouses, our children, and others.Elizabeth Zacharias is an author, speaker, and life coach.

If you feel hesitant or afraid to share the good news about Jesus Christ with others, a powerful prayer is to pray, "God, if you want to use me, open a door. Who do you want me to share the gospel with today? Who do you want me to talk to?" In this podcast episode, Beth M. Jones interviews Karen Wells about the gift of evangelism - how important it is for us as Christian believers to talk boldly and with God's agape love with others about Jesus and how our faith in Jesus has changed us, no matter how fearful that may feel to us. Karen and her husband Simon are driving across Canada and wherever God leads them as "nomads for the Lord in a schoolie!"Karen Wells has been married to her husband Simon for almost 37 years. She has one daughter, one son, and eight grandchildren.Although Saskatchewan, Canada is her home base, she is presently living a nomadic lifestyle with Simon, asking God to bring them to people to serve, and with whom to share the Gospel.Karen has been living for the Lord

Today I met for a hot coffee and blueberry bagel with strawberry cream cheese with my friend Caroline S. Cooper (author, speaker, mental health peer specialist). It was so fun.

Are you a prayer warrior? Or do your prayers feel like they’re lacking? Prayer doesn’t have to be long, fancy, or complicated. It can be as simple as talking to God like you would talk to a friend or relative. Join Beth M.

My husband Ray and I have been dealing with house things - a limb from our neighbor's yard fell onto our roof and gutter, needing repair; our hot water heater had to be replaced; and today a plumber is trying to fix a leaky faucet. All these things are expensive and add up. As I pondered these, I thought where in my life do I need spiritual repairing and replacing? Where do you? We're not able to change ourselves. We can only become a new creation through the power of Jesus' blood and His work on the cross and God's grace by the Holy Spirit.Have you ever seen a depressed, fearful, or angry butterfly? No. Butterflies are free and happy. It is a creature that underwent metamorphosis, changing from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly.
