If you were met by a stranger on the street, would you be recognizable as a Christian? Today on Family Talk, Pastor Paul Blair continues his riveting speech about God’s truth, and how followers of Jesus Christ should appear different than the rest of the world. Take inventory of your own life and make sure you can’t be mistaken for someone sitting on the fence about certain biblical viewpoints! Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” We must not be party to the destructive works of darkness. Instead, we need to expose the lies from our culture and stand boldly against them!
According to Paul Blair, senior pastor of Fairview Baptist Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, every aspect of our lives should be given over to the Lord. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Paul gives a stirring speech about the absolute necessity of every Christian to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, and strength. Be challenged as Pastor Blair asks, “What part of your life is Jesus not in control of?”
Life can take many twists and turns through dark times and unexpected tragedies. But we can rest assured knowing there is nothing that happens outside of God’s knowledge and His purposeful plan. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Roger Marsh interviews Steele Croswhite, a singer/songwriter, pastor and leader of the Christian worship band, The Rock Music Group.

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson concludes his riveting discussion with Rabbi Jonathan Cahn about his latest book entitled, The Dragon’s Prophecy. Rabbi Cahn explains how the red dragon is symbolic of Satan as described in Revelation 12, and that wars are predicted just as we are witnessing in the world today. But even in the face of such calamity, Rabbi Cahn offers hope to all believers by stating, “Evil cannot last and good cannot fail. We will overcome the dragon by the blood of the lamb!” And we know that the Lamb is Jesus, Who bled and died for our sins to purchase a place in Heaven for us.
Today on Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson talks with New York Times best-selling author, Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, about his latest book entitled The Dragon’s Prophecy: Israel, the Dark Resurrection, and the End of Days. Rabbi Cahn draws fascinating correlations between the words written in the Bible and actual occurrences that we have and are experiencing in the world. He explains how the year of Jubilee, Revelation 12, and Ezekiel 38 have prophetically pronounced Israel as the recipient of God’s blessings. Does the Bible hold the answers for our future also?
During the regime of Adolf Hitler, a brave German pastor named Dietrich Bonhoeffer declared, "Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act." Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy, highlights the moral courage of this man who knowingly risked his life to condemn Germany's maniacal dictator. God is still calling Christians to speak out against evil going on today.
While Dietrich Bonhoeffer is known as the courageous German pastor who spoke out against the evil of Adolf Hitler, he also became a spy who sought to assassinate the dictator. He wrote, "We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself." In this Part 2 edition, Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy, describes Bonhoeffer as an obedient disciple of Jesus Christ who understood that the believer is called to die to self and trust God in every circumstance.
In the words of Dr. Ben Carson, “The person that has the most to do with what happens to you, is you!” Coming from a life of poverty, and being a self-confessed, “horrible student,” Dr. Carson overcame the odds and rose to become one of the youngest chiefs of pediatric neurosurgery in the U.S. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson speaks with Dr. Carson about his numerous and highly celebrated accomplishments, despite his humble beginnings.

Luke 12:48 says, “From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Ben Carson gives a stirring speech about our society today, and the responsibilities that Christians have been given by our Father in Heaven.

According to Victor, the world needs men to answer the call to be filled with God’s spirit and be willing to fight mightily against the kingdom of darkness, and to be more like Jesus, who is the greatest example of the “dangerous gentleman!” Proverbs 3:25-26 says, “Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the Lord will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.”
No one wants to experience great loss or tragedy. Instead of trusting God when heartbreak comes, we often question why He is allowing our suffering. Today’s edition of Family Talk will address that pain through a conversation between Dr. James Dobson and his guest, Pastor Lon Solomon. James 1:2-4 says, “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” We pray that you will experience the peace only Jesus can bring as Pastor Solomon reminds us that “suffering has a redeeming purpose in God’s plan for our lives.”
