Broken and Beautiful: Let God Turn Your Mess into a Masterpiece – Part 2

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson and his guest, Christine Soule, continue discussing her life and her book, Broken and Beautiful. One Scripture that has been a platform for Christine’s life is Genesis 50:20, “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.” Indeed, the Lord has used her pain and brokenness to bring hope and healing to women and children who have walked a similar path. Christine urges believers to welcome those curious souls who are in pain and walk into the church but who do not look like them, because they are often searching for a place to belong.

As Roe Crumbles, We Look to the Road Ahead – Part 2

Ever since the bad law known as Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court, the current administration has wanted to codify the right to an abortion that would allow this shameful act from conception through birth and perhaps beyond. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Janet Porter, founder of Faith2Action, quotes Dietrich Bonhoeffer. He said, “Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless if we are silent in this hour.” The people of God need to rise up in defense of the unborn.

After Roe v. Wade crumbled to the ground on June 24, 2022, nearly 20 states passed laws protecting unborn babies. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Janet Porter, the architect behind The Heartbeat Bill, rejoices that so many states have protected babies. A federal Heartbeat bill would protect children in the womb, even in the darkest blue states like California, Michigan, and New York. Proverbs 24:11 commands us to “rescue those being carried away to slaughter.” The church needs to rise up now and be a voice for the voiceless.

Don’t Miss Your Moment – Part 2

When Cleopas and his wife talked to Jesus on the road to Emmaus that first Easter morning, initially they didn’t recognize Him. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Pastor Clayton King surmises what prompted them to finally recognize their Savior.
