Dr. James Dobson

A Life Transformed Through Prayer

April 16, 2014
New York City. Home of spectacular Broadway shows, high-powered Wall Street brokers and the magical Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. As you’ll hear, all of that glamor can be deceiving. Bill Rieser shares about his rough and tumble life growing up on the rugged streets of the city that never sleeps, and the relief he found in a place he never expected. It’s a message for those who hope to find a way to overcome their difficult circumstances.

What Is a Woman, According to God?
What is a woman? You might think that this is a simple question. In recent years, however, it has become as hard to answer for many people as an algebra problem, the kind some of us once sweated out in high school. Few topics have created more confusion and a firestorm of vitriol than the discussion of gender ideology. At the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute (JDFI), we understand parents are desperate for answers, and we want to help. A regular JDFI contributor, Dr. Owen Strachan, who is provost and research professor of theology at Grace Bible Theological Seminary, addresses the question of "What Is a Woman, According to God?" in his new essay. We wanted to make it easy to read and available to share with your family and friends, so we've designed it as a downloadable PDF.
