Is Atheism Dead? Part 2

March 8, 2022

In 1966, Time Magazine featured a cover story asking the question, "Is God Dead?" On today's edition of Family Talk, Christian talk show host Eric Metaxas mirrors that provocative cover with a question of his own: "Is Atheism Dead?" His new book of the same name explains that science makes the case for God's existence. For example, Dr. Stephen Collins, an archeologist, discovered the biblical Sodom complete with five feet of ash, melted bits of brick, and charred human bone. Scientifically, it could not have been caused by a fire or a volcano. The evidence points to the sobering truth of the Lord's judgment in Genesis 19.

Is Atheism Dead? Part 1

March 7, 2022

On today's edition of Family Talk, Christian radio host Eric Metaxas, author of Is Atheism Dead?, declares that science makes the case for God in this fine-tuned universe. For example, did you know that Jupiter, which is 400 million miles away from earth, enables us to live? This gas giant is so massive and has such a strong gravitational pull that it attracts the asteroids, meteorites, and comets that would otherwise bombard earth and destroy all forms of life.

Training the Next Generation to Lead like Christ

February 25, 2022

Why was the 2022 March for Life so well attended by enthusiastic high school kids, College students, and young adults from varied backgrounds? On today's edition of Family Talk, Jeff Hunt, director of the Centennial Institute at Colorado Christian University, claims the reason is simple. These young people who are that vital next generation, grew up seeing the sonogram pictures of their baby brothers and sisters taped to the refrigerator door before they ever met them. Therefore, this new generation of pro-lifers rejects the lie that babies in the womb are just a clump of cells that you can get rid of without any remorse or guilt.

A Story of Cancer and Comfort Part 2

February 24, 2022

In a poem by Helen Steiner Rice, she wrote, "Sometimes we come to life's crossroads, and we view what we think is the end. But God has a much wider vision. He knows that it's only a bend." On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. David Jeremiah and Dr. James Dobson use the poet's words to illustrate the mystery of faith. Dr. Jeremiah, who battled reoccurring cancer, staunchly refutes the belief that Christians won't and should not experience pain and suffering. Whether you're facing cancer, divorce, broken vows, or a prodigal child, remember that God's grace is truly sufficient for every need.

A Story of Cancer and Comfort Part 1

February 23, 2022

In 1994, Dr. David Jeremiah, founder of Turning Point Ministries, was diagnosed with cancer. While he wasn't afraid of dying, he was afraid for his family and their future. On today's edition of Family Talk, the author of When Your World Falls Apart, recounts his health journey with Dr. Dobson and the role that faith played in his recovery. During times of pain and disillusionment, Dr. Jeremiah believes the church needs a theology of adversity. The Christian life does not guarantee smooth sailing, but King David reassures us in Psalm 46, that "God is our refuge and strength."

When You’re Feeling Far from God: Getting Reconnected

February 21, 2022

It happens easily enough. We don't mean to, but somehow life pulls us in a hundred different directions. We get distracted and busy—and it pulls us further and further away from the One who loves us most.

7 Threats in Our Times, #7: The Attack Upon the Biblical Family

February 9, 2022

Of all the social institutions designed by God, I suppose none is under greater attack than the family. This shouldn’t surprise us, for destroying relationships is the ultimate scheme of Satan and it is here we find the most intimate. Indeed, it seems that the entirety of the world, the flesh, and the enemy are today aligned against the biblical family. And the family is the heart of a culture.
