How do we find peace in a world that seems to be spiraling out of control? Where stress is running rampant and anxiety hides around every corner? On today’s classic edition of Family Talk, Shirley Dobson joins her husband, Dr. James Dobson, to discuss the power of prayer. Philippians 4:6 says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
