On April 18, 1775, American patriots were alerted by couriers, including famously Paul Revere, that British troops were headed their way. Citizen volunteers and militia, known as the Minutemen, headed to Concord Bridge to stop them.
Over 247 years ago, 13 British colonies declared their independence from English rule, forming the United States of America. On this special Independence Day edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson recites a stirring rendition of a letter written by columnist and editor, Don Feder, entitled “Patriots Prayer.” Join us as we are reminded that our founding fathers sought God and the principles of the Bible as the basis upon which to build our great new nation. In addition, be empowered to teach your children what American patriotism is, and why it defines America as “the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
As citizens of the United States of America, we enjoy so many freedoms and liberties that we dare not take for granted. On today’s edition of Family Talk, co-host Gary Bauer interviews Jerry Newcombe, executive director of the Providence Forum, about the ideals and principles upon which our great nation was founded. Let us never forget that our founding fathers leaned heavily on God and their Judeo-Christian heritage as they completed the final draft of the Declaration of Independence 247 years ago. It is the very reason why we, as Americans, can and do celebrate the 4th of July and call our nation “the land of the free!”
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 close 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.
According to American warrior and retired serviceman, Chad Robichaux, “When God burdens our hearts to help His people, you don’t have a choice, you have to be obedient to what God is calling you to do!” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton interviews Chad, a proud former Marine, and his Afghan interpreter, Aziz, to discuss the unique calling the Lord placed in both of their lives. In 2021, when the U.S. government announced that their military would be withdrawing from Afghanistan, Chad knew that he had to return and rescue Aziz and his family. What Chad did not know at that time was that the mission to save Aziz was going to be so much bigger than anything he could have imagined.

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson continues his conversation with Michele Bachmann to discuss the overreach of the World Health Organization, and the possibility of the United States turning over its decision-making ability to that organization. Dr. Dobson and Michele urge listeners to call their representatives and senators in Washington, D.C., to let their voices be heard, and to continue to turn to the Lord for help. 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
How would our lives change if the United States signed away its decision-making authority to the World Health Organization? According to Michele Bachmann, that could be our future if the U.S. stays in the WHO, and if Christians remain silent. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson and Michele, a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives, discuss this topic of concern, and how it could affect our freedoms for years to come.
