Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak

July 22, 2022

Shannon Bream grew up memorizing Scripture while enrolled in Awana. Her mother first taught her Philippians 2:3, which says, “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility, value others above yourselves.” With God’s providence, after graduating from college and law school, and then struggling as a young lawyer, Shannon persevered in her quest to ‘value others above herself,’ culminating in her landing a plum job as host of Fox News @ Night. In this public forum, Shannon engages viewers and the culture each night to defend truth and righteousness. On today’s edition of Family Talk, she talks to Dr. Tim Clinton about her previous stage fright, her husband’s brain tumor, and her new book, The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, highlighting life lessons from mothers and daughters in Scripture.

Raising Worry-Free Girls – Part 2

July 8, 2022

The average age of onset anxiety for girls used to be eight. Today, with the added stress of social media and the pandemic, coupled with an increased emphasis on academic and athletic performance, the average age in which therapists are diagnosing anxiety in little girls is six. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton and his guest, Sissy Goff, author of Raising Worry-Free Girls, discuss how girls can experience intrusive thoughts and get stuck, like a single-loop roller coaster. Sissy notes that a father’s affirmation of his daughter can provide relief and create connection. In addition, meditating on whatever is true, noble, and lovely, as Philippians 4:8 instructs us to do, is another way to combat the “worry monster.”

Raising Worry-Free Girls – Part 1

July 7, 2022

Sissy Goff, a counselor and author of Raising Worry-Free Girls, says anxiety always involves an overestimation of the problem, and an underestimation of self. On today’s edition of Family Talk, she warns parents not to rescue their daughter, which only serves to validate her anxiety. In essence, a parent might say, “You’re right, sweetheart, your concern is too big and you’re too small. You can't do it.” Instead, it’s critical to tell her, “You are capable. And I believe in you!” That will build her confidence, empowering her to become more resilient and independent.

A Conversation with a Pro-Life Governor

July 6, 2022

Even though he grew up as a preacher’s kid, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt didn’t completely turn his life over to Christ until he was in college. Today, the father of six says, “Everything in this world is meaningless compared to our relationship with the Lord.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Governor Stitt, known as the most pro-life governor in the country, says he signed the toughest abortion ban in America which protects babies from the moment of conception. He thinks it's simply barbaric that states like Colorado and New York legalized abortion on demand up to the moment of birth. His message to a woman who is in a crisis pregnancy: God has a redemptive plan for you and your baby.

The Kindness Challenge: 30 Days to Improve Any Relationship – Part 2

June 30, 2022

Today on Family Talk, social researcher Shaunti Feldhahn joins Dr. Tim Clinton for a second installment to further discuss her hallmark “Kindness Challenge.” Shaunti explains that kindness has to be intentional, and it is more than just being polite. When it’s done well, kindness has the power to improve strained relationships and turn difficult marriages around. But it takes practice, and everyone has blind spots when it comes to kindness. Shaunti invites listeners to choose one person in their life, and commit to a thirty-day strategic practice of kindness and grace directed toward that individual. Since 89% of people who participate in the kindness challenge see an improvement in their relationships, it’s definitely worth the effort!

First, it means “nixing the negative,” “practicing praise,” and “carrying out kindness.”

Elevate Your Faith in God and Find Real Joy in Your Life

June 22, 2022

In a wave of successive life chapters, Margaret Feinberg battled aggressive cancer, chronic pain and financial hardship. During those trials, she learned that she could either “cling to her crisis or cling to Christ.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Margaret candidly explains that faith is not the absence of doubt. The thorns in our lives should drive us back to God, Who is our refuge and strength. Contrary to secular claims, we can’t experience transformative faith without sacrifice, suffering, and service. In her book, More Power To You, Margaret shares that she has learned to pray the simple declaration: “God is good. God is on the throne. Breathe in, breathe out.”

Show Me the Father – Part 2

June 16, 2022

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 19.5 million children, more than 1 in 4, live without a father in the home. When a dad checks out or leaves the home, it's like a bus driver leaving the bus, and the abandoned passengers end up in a ditch. On today’s edition of Family Talk, filmmaker and producer, Stephen Kendrick, gives us hope. The film he made with his two brothers titled Show Me the Father, features five true stories of wounded dads and broken homes, and how God stepped in and brought forgiveness and restoration. The solution to America’s crippling fatherlessness is to reconnect people to their loving Heavenly Father, and inspire dads to step into their God-given roles, in this moment.
