Attack on Authority
Like a watchdog thwarts a thief, a loving parent uses authority to protect his or her kids from harm.

By God’s perfect design for nearly 50 years, Dr. James Dobson has been the leading clinical voice for the celebration and preservation of the family.
To reach the next generation, the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute is remastering Dr. Dobson’s biblically-based “transforming truths” into 60-second audio messages. The new Dr. Dobson Minute will provide young families with practical insights that will strengthen marriages and help build better parenting skills.
