Enough is Enough: Let’s Stop the Threat of Porn to our Children

February 24, 2023

Did you know that 58% of kids under the age of 14 are consuming graphic pornography on a regular basis? Or that 80 to 90% of this filth depicts violence against women? Today’s porn can lead to sex trafficking and many other corrupt forms of brokenness. On this edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton interviews Donna Rice Hughes, president and CEO of Enough is Enough. With a mission to protect children and empower moms and dads, she urges parents to become cyber savvy by using Internet filters, regular monitoring, and using time-limiting tools. As a culture, it’s time that we collectively yell, “Enough is enough!” We will no longer allow pornography to rob our kids of their innocence and pollute their minds.

Praying for Your Family

January 16, 2023

Exodus 28:29 records that Aaron, the high priest, entered into the presence of the Lord in the tabernacle. He carried forth the names of the 12 sons of Israel as a memorial to the Lord. On today’s edition of Family Talk, the late Pastor Jack Hayford reveals that his dad was so moved by that image from the Scriptures that every morning his mom and dad brought before the Lord not only the names of their own children, but also any person who had the same last name. Providentially, they heard first-hand from three separate people who shared their name, who crossed their paths and testified that they had personally received Christ in the last few months.

Introducing Children to Christ

January 11, 2023

The mission of introducing one's children to the Christian faith can be likened to a three-man relay race. First, your father runs his lap around the track, carrying the baton, which represents the gospel of Jesus Christ. At the appropriate moment, he hands the baton to you, and you begin your journey around the track. Then finally, the time will come when you must get the baton safely in the hands of your child.

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton sits down with Ryan and Bethany Bomberger to discuss their new children’s book, She is She.

I’m Alive: Standing with the Poor and the Oppressed

January 2, 2023

In 2005, Sarah Vienna was asked to sing Christmas carols in a Romanian children’s hospital. To her dismay, many of the kids had been abandoned by their families because of desperate poverty. They’d been left alone with rags for diapers, and worst of all, because the nurses had ignored them, the kids didn’t cry. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Sarah shares her heart and the work of her ministry, Firm Foundations Romania. She cites Psalm 82:3 as her mission, “Defend the weak, the fatherless, uphold the cause of the poor, and the oppressed.”

Mama Bear Apologetics

December 16, 2022

According to research, 59 percent of all high school graduates leave the church. The statistic begs the question, “How can we help our children cultivate a faith of their own, and develop a personal relationship with the Lord?” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton and his guest, Hillary Morgan Ferrer, discuss her book, Mama Bear Apologetics: Empowering Your Kids to Challenge Cultural Lies. The world’s most potent lies are wrapped in partial truths. Hillary stresses the importance of teaching kids to think biblically. She believes this is crucial and empowers parents with the “ROAR” method in identifying and analyzing truth from fiction. Recognize the message. Offer discernment. Argue for a healthier approach. And finally, reinforce these ideas through discussion.

Family Policy Issues Hanging in the Balance

October 24, 2022

The problem in our culture is simple. Like the Israelites in Judges 17:6, everyone is doing what is right in his or her own eyes. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Christian radio host Janet Parshall says that anytime people search for their significance apart from the Lord, it leads to sinful chaos. From the increase in “gender affirming” care to new definitions of marriage, Americans are rejecting their God-given design. If Christians want God-honoring, pro-family policies re-established and maintained in our nation, we must make our voices heard at the polls.
