Question: Dr. Dobson, you have said that the children of godly parents sometimes go into severe rebellion and never return to the faith they were taught. I have seen that happen to some wonderful families that loved the Lord and were committed to the church. Still, it appears contradictory to Scripture. How do you interpret Proverbs 22:6, which says, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it"? Doesn't that verse mean, as it implies, that the children of wise and dedicated Christian parents will never be lost? Doesn't it promise that all wayward offspring will return, sooner or later, to the fold?

You’ve most likely heard of Joni Eareckson Tada, but for those who have not, at the tender age of 17, she had a diving accident that left her as a quadriplegic. Now at age 74, Joni has faced and overcome so many obstacles, including cancer. God has used her mightily! Today on Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson talks with his dear friend, Joni, about the life and lessons the Lord has taught her.

In the face of great persecution, Christians are called to stand strong on the truth of God’s Word. Joshua 1:9 declares, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.
