At a young age, find ways to introduce music and rhythm into the lives of your children!
Question: Dr. Dobson, my husband and I are distressed because our teenager seems to be rejecting her Christian beliefs. She was saved at an early age and in the past has shown a real love for the Lord. My inclination is to panic, but before I do, can you offer a word of encouragement?
As a parent, do you have a plan for how you’re raising your children? On today’s edition of Family Talk, Gary Bauer concludes his passionate discussion with Dr. George Barna about his book, Raising Spiritual Champions: Nurturing Your Child’s Heart, Mind and Soul. If we, as parents, do not fulfill our God-given privilege of guiding the development of our children, based on the Christian faith, we will leave them to the mercy of a fallen world. We must not continue to outsource our parental obligations to the secular culture, or else we’ll have to be prepared to suffer the consequences.

Question: Dr. Dobson, my family lives together under one roof and we share the same last name. But we don't "feel" like a family.

When you become a parent for the first time, you begin to realize the weight of the responsibility you carry in raising your children to be disciples of Jesus Christ. Today on Family Talk, Gary Bauer talks with Dr. George Barna about his latest book, Raising Spiritual Champions: Nurturing Your Child’s Heart, Mind and Soul. Dr. Barna shares the findings of his extensive research on how critical it is to start shaping a child’s biblical worldview early in life. Proverbs 22:6 says, “Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it.”
Question: Dr. Dobson, what do you have to say to the many people who sincerely try to control their anger, but who get irritated and frustrated and still lose their temper time and time again? How can they bring this area under control? Or is it impossible?
It’s an honor and a privilege to be a dad! On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Ronnie Floyd interviews our own Dr. James Dobson about the magnificent God-given role of fathers, and how they play a role in managing the stability of the family. Contrary to what the secular world says, men are designed to be leaders, providers, teachers, and protectors. The Lord did not make a mistake when He created Adam, and He did not make a mistake when He created the entire male human race!
