On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton dives into this subject with author and co-founder of Heartlight Ministries, Mark Gregston. They also discuss the terrible results that can occur in the absence of strong relationships.

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson discusses with Pat the journey God laid out for him since 1960, and how the Lord had showed Himself faithful.

When Roe v. Wade crumbled to the ground on June 24, 2022, it was the beginning of the end of a decades-long battle. While the reversal of this wicked law was ruled through the Supreme Court, it was also thanks to the pro-life pioneers, past and present, some who are even deceased, who took a stand for the sanctity of human life. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton interviews John Stemberger about his book, Legacy of Life: Honoring Fifty of the Greatest Pro-Life Leaders of the Last Fifty Years, an ode to those who helped make a post-Roe America possible, including our own Dr. James Dobson. Learn more about the giants within the pro-life movement, and why we must also stand to defend and protect the sanctity of life for mothers and their unborn babies “for such a time as this.”

Did you know that in a study of biologists polled from around the world, 96% agreed that human life begins at conception? Despite this overwhelming statistic that supports the pro-life position, we still battle the denial of this fact by those who want to destroy human life through abortion. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton discusses this delicate but serious topic with Dr. Ingrid Skop (pronounced Skh-ah-p), vice president and director of medical affairs for the Charlotte Lozier Institute. Dr. Skop explains that without knowledge of the truth about abortion, chemical abortion, and the morning after pill, women could be putting their lives in jeopardy, in addition to the lives of their unborn children.

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson concludes his riveting discussion with Dr. Everett Piper about his book entitled, Not a Daycare: The Devastating Consequences of Abandoning Truth. They also advise how Christians can prepare themselves to defend what they believe in the culture. Find out how living with boundaries and remembering that truth does exist will actually create the freedom that everyone is desperately searching for. Jesus declares in John 8:32, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

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.

What are some of the earliest memories you have from your childhood? Were they learning to ride a bike or tie your shoelaces? Maybe it was a special song or playing games in the car on the way to school. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson takes a walk down memory lane with his daughter, Danae, as they also discuss what Dr. Dobson counts as the number one job we have as parents. 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.”
