She encourages them to fully embrace the craziness of child rearing and to remember that their godly calling is to "mold" their kids according to trustworthy biblical principles.

Philippians 4:7 says, “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” It’s one thing to read these words in the Bible, but another to believe them in the midst of war and the threat of imminent death.

You’ll hear about his first encounter with Jesus through the intentional outreach of his neighbors, and how God then led him to fight bravely for his country. On this special Memorial Day program, Chaplain Struecker gives God all the glory for the supernatural peace he experienced on the battlefields as a survivor of “Black Hawk Down.”

Hooked: The Consequences of Casual Sex - Part 2 with Guest Dr. Joe McIlhaney
On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson concludes his bold and dynamic conversation with Dr. Joe McIlhaney, author and a board-certified OB/GYN. Dr. McIlhaney shares the horrifying curriculum being taught under the banner of comprehensive sex education, and explains the unthinkable price society is paying because we have believed the lies of the enemy instead of following the principles of the Bible. Romans 1:21 says, “For although they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.” Do not shy away from your God-given responsibilities as a parent!

Psalms 34:4-5 says, “I sought the Lord, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.” Discover the divine appointments that can be met when we allow God to step in and take control.

Tribute to a Praying Mom with Guests Fern and Ty Nichols
Fern Nichols was at her wit's end, trying to deal with a rebellious, wayward son. Though in despair because of Ty's worldly choices, she stayed on her knees in prayer for him. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson speaks with Fern, a former teacher and founder of Moms in Prayer International. Fern understood the power of Deuteronomy 3:22, which declares, "Do not be afraid; the Lord your God Himself will fight for you." Thankfully, Ty was brought to repentance by the undying prayers of his loving mother, and God's promise of mercy and grace. You won’t want to miss this beautiful story of a transformed and abundant life.
About Today's Guest: Fern Nichols
Fern Nichols is an author, former elementary school teacher, and the founder of Moms in Prayer International, a prayer movement that mobilizes women around the world to gather together to pray for their children and the schools they attend. In 1984, Fern was fearful about sending her two eldest children off to junior high. She knew the school would be a battlefield for their hearts and minds. She realized the warfare would be intense and to fight this battle, she needed to invite other mothers to pray. She called one mom and asked her to pray with her for their children and school. Her response was an immediate “yes,” and that was the humble beginning of Moms in Prayer that now spans the U.S. in every state, and is in more than 140 countries. Fern and her husband, Rle, have four grown children and ten grandchildren. Ty Nichols is Fern and Rle's oldest son, and has worked closely with his mom's ministry as a public speaker for many years. He resides in California with his family.
