Romans 1:25 says, “They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served the created things rather than the Creator.” In our culture today, absolute truth is being replaced by moral relativism, especially on our college campuses. Unfortunately, many young people are believing the lies wholeheartedly. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson interviews author and speaker, Dr. Everett Piper, about the consequences our culture is experiencing as many fall victim to the deception being disseminated throughout society today.

As Christians, the most loving thing we can do is to speak truth — God’s truth, even if that means going against the rest of society. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton concludes his discussion with author, Eric Metaxas, about his latest book, Letter to the American Church. Eric also challenges us to wake up and live out our Christian faith, for as James 2:17 says, “…Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” The question is, are we listening?

During World War II, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime wreaked havoc in Europe, which resulted in the loss of six million lives, while the German Church remained silent. Could that happen again? According to Eric Metaxas, the similarities in the actions of the Church during WWII are hauntingly similar to what is happening today in our society. On this edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton and Eric discuss his book, Letter to the American Church, and the role of the American Body of Christ in the culture. If we are to keep history from repeating itself, we must stand and speak out against the modern-day evils or risk being guilty of helping those evils to thrive.

That responsibility is to teach our children, from an early age, who Jesus is. Deuteronomy 6:6-7 declares, “These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.”

If your faith were a paper cup, would it be able to hold water? Or would you find that it would leak a little, or a lot? Today on Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton interviews James Spencer, Ph.D., to discuss his new book, Christian Resistance: Learning to Defy the World and Follow Jesus. Listen as Dr. Spencer challenges us to examine our faith to ensure we are not losing our ability to testify for Christ in a world that tries to convert us and water down our own beliefs. Romans 12:2 declares, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – His good, pleasing and perfect will.”
