Bringing Up Boys
With so much confusion about the role of men in society, it’s no wonder we have questions about how to bring up boys in the right way. Why are so many young males in crisis? What qualities should we be instilling in our sons? The culture has vilified masculinity, and as a result, an entire generation of boys is growing up without a clear idea of what it means to be a man. To help parents confront this challenge, the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute has developed a new 10-day email series based on Dr. Dobson’s best-selling book, Bringing Up Boys. It’s designed to equip you to wisely lead your sons to become godly men.

Ephesians 2:8-9, says, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.” Thanks to God's amazing gift of grace, flawed men and women everywhere can receive forgiveness for their sins. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson and Lee Strobel discuss his book, The Case for Grace, pointing out that Christianity is the only faith that offers this unmerited gift of God's grace.

Deception is growing and the enemy is fighting hard to keep these lies in the forefront of our minds. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Gary Bauer concludes his inspiring and thought-provoking discussion with Pastor Jack Hibbs about his latest book, Living in the Daze of Deception: How to Discern Truth from Culture’s Lies. He reminds us not to make the mistake of thinking the church is immune to these lies. We must not only be hypervigilant ourselves, but be steadfast in sharing God’s Truth with those around us. 1 John 4:6 says, “We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.”

Psalm 46 reminds us to “be still and know God,” a concept easily lost in the constant busyness of our culture. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson continues his conversation with John Eldredge about his book, Get Your Life Back: Everyday Practices for a World Gone Mad. John explains the dangers of a distracted, technology-addicted lifestyle, and suggests that we practice the "One Minute Pause,” along with soaking up God’s creation and turning off our phones. As we unplug from the "fight or flight" culture, our stress-triggered cortisol levels go down, and we can begin to learn how to cast our cares upon the Lord.

Learn how Jesus came to heal that hurt in the lives of the brokenhearted as He sets the captives free.
