Everyone knows that raising children is not an easy task. Add to that, having a child with special needs. Studies have shown that the pressure becomes so high, it has driven 80% of marriages to the point of divorce. On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson concludes his discussion with Bob West and his son, Kyle, who has cerebral palsy. John 9:2-3 says, “His disciples asked him, ‘Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?’ ‘Neither this man nor his parents sinned,’ said Jesus, ‘but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in Him.’” Listen and find hope as Bob and Kyle discuss the ministry that God birthed out of their own journey of life.

Bob and Kyle West

Kyle West began a relationship with Dr. James Dobson at the tender age of seven when he attended a Focus on the Family picnic with his parents, when his father, Bob, was an employee at the ministry. Kyle, who was born with cerebral palsy, caught Dr. Dobson’s attention, and struck up a precocious conversation which led Dr. Dobson to invite him onto his radio program. Kyle was interviewed again by Dr. Dobson in the early days of Family Talk. He went on to receive his undergraduate degree from Patrick Henry College and his master’s degree in the classics at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Kyle then went on to receive his Ph.D., also in the classics, at the University of Pennsylvania. He is now teaching Greek Mythology at Patrick Henry College in Purcellville, Virginia. 

Bob West is the executive director of Need Project, Inc., an organization with a mission to support children with special needs. He previously served at Compassion International, Telos Corporation, and Dr. James Dobson’s Family Talk. Bob and his wife, Susan, have three children and they reside in Colorado.
