Sally shares about the miracles God is doing through Moms in Prayer which has grown by leaps and bounds, as well as her book entitled Unshaken: Experience the Power and Peace of a Life of Prayer. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 declares, “Pray without ceasing.”

The Radical Act of Thanksgiving
Of course, we all know hardships and have days when giving thanks to God feels difficult. In the psalm quoted above, David praises the Lord’s lavish kindness. But he goes on to lament that “a band of ruthless men” (v. 14) hunts him to kill him. That’s not the group you invite to eat turkey with you on Thanksgiving Day!

Men in the Ladies’ Room: Nancy Mace Says No.
Johnson’s “unequivocally clear” declaration is unequivocally correct and fits most Americans’ stance. Our nation’s majority does not support men in women’s spaces. Why? In God’s restraining grace, many people live according to creational reality, not in opposition to it.

Prayer, Peace, and the Presence of God
Adversity in life can sometimes cause our faith to be shaken. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson interviews Dave Butts, the late president of Harvest Prayer Ministries in 2018. Before his passing, Dave opened up about his battle with a rare form of cancer, from which he didn’t recover. Through this difficult journey, he revealed what he learned about fervent prayer and the peace of God.

Men Who Stand Between Women and Evil
But a new day is dawning. Many now understand that, in normal terms, it is good for men to be physically capable of protecting others. In preparation for this role, the formation of a man’s godly character ordinarily begins in the home. Masculine protection is not merely to be taught on a whiteboard but modeled by a father. Neither is it about the body, first and foremost. Though the body matters, masculine protection is a spiritual commitment grounded in a man’s walk with Christ.

Trump’s Stunning Victory and God’s Great Kindness
It is official: Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States. The answer to the prayers of many has come. As Ronald Reagan once said, “It’s morning again in America.” The days of our nation suffering the ravages of another leftist administration are now past. The Democratic platform was essentially everything God hates—championing unlimited abortion, open borders, and “gender-affirming care.” Whether our homeland as we know it would have survived the enactment of that agenda is questionable. But God appointed a different outcome. Once again, He has shown incredible kindness to us. America is not finished.

A Binary Election: Why We Disagree with Christianity Today
According to Christianity Today, the American presidential election does not represent a binary choice. So argued Robert Postic in a Christianity Today essay entitled, Voting Is Important to Me. That's Why, This Year, I Won't Vote. In his article, Postic cited Dr. James Dobson in support of his position. Because of the issues at stake, and because of Postic's use of Dr. Dobson's words without the full context of his longstanding view, we at JDFI feel compelled to set the record straight.
