From My Standpoint

By: Josh C. Jones
  • Summary

  • In an age where perception is fact and negativity and conflict remain entertainment, it can be difficult and sometimes troubling to find a positive and try and understand another’s perspective. Join Josh C. Jones, an author, teacher, speaker, and more, as he discusses different topics in an attempt to showcase a differing perspective with a nugget of positivity and truth. Let's ask those questions, travel some of those logical thought trails, think outside the current culture's accepted cognition, and find some valuable information, which could very well bring hope, understanding, and a proper perspective to our lives. With these podcast episodes, as with my books and writings, I hope to help you rebuild your faith, reignite your hope, overcome depression, open that dialogue, and reach your destiny of richness, success, and life.

  • Episode 087: Rise and Fall of Freedom
    Oct 1 2024

    “The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.” Thomas Jefferson

    Freedom, as we know, is not free; and it can and is easily taken by those who would oppose it. But how could a citizen base who lives in freedom and claims to support freedom so easily hand that very freedom over to those who wish to take it?

    Well, as Thomas Paine is quoted, “Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.”

    But what if we are losing our freedoms one slice at a time? What if the very citizens are giving their freedoms away with each cut to their very comfortable and conformable lives and their desire for dependence over responsibility? What if a nation could quietly be put to death by a thousand cuts?

  • Episode 086: The 10 Commandments PART VI (Man and Man)
    May 21 2024

    This is the final episode in the 10 Commandments series. In this episode, we discuss the commands that deal with having a good life and a good relationship with your fellow neighbor—that is, every person on this earth.

    You might be surprised at how many of these commands from God you not only follow in your everyday life but that you openly support, defend, and uphold as good and truthful commands. Yes, even the most hardcore atheists, even if they might not follow these commands in their own lives, believe their neighbor should follow and respect them in order to receive good treatment.

    And find out why these commands are so vital to a good, just, moral, and better-behaved society and education system.

  • Episode 085: The 10 Commandments PART V (Man and God)
    May 7 2024

    There is a path to living a better life in relationship with God. That is what we will discuss in this episode: the part of the 10 Commandments that deals with a relationship with God.

    We will explain what all 10 of the Ten Commandments are, but our focus will be on helping each other understand the importance of a proper relationship between us and God, based on God’s commands.

    Even if you think this does not apply to you, but you believe that all religions follow the same “god” but just under a different name, then you should be interested in understanding these commands even more, if for nothing else than to help you understand your neighbor better.
