The Gift of Family

In a time when stress often colors our day-to-day lives, it can be all too easy to be remiss at counting our blessings, chief among them, the gift of our family. Whether you are single, married, parents, grandparents, or your earthly family has passed on to be with the Lord, we all cherish memories and benefit each day from the wonderful lessons learned in our experiences with family.

Family is, after all, a gift from God.

We at Family Talk are very grateful to our own families who share us with this important and meaningful ministry all year long. We are also appreciative to you, our extended family, for the opportunity to serve and for your partnership in supporting the ministry with your gifts.

We send our very best wishes for a wonderful Christmas season, as we remember the birth of the amazing gift of Jesus Christ, our Father's one and only son. We celebrate the beginning of a life that was to be history's greatest sacrificial gift - that which opens the door to our eternal salvation.

And, as joyous as Christmas and holiday activities can be, we recognize that many people will also be hurting. Some are clinging loosely to faith and hope as they weather life's storms. Others fret over the unsure future, and many feel lost and lonely.

Please join us in prayer for those whose Christmas, due to life's challenges, will be an even more difficult season. Let's be in prayer for our nation; for those who currently lead and those who seek to lead it in years ahead. 2012 is a very important election year, and we must stand together to set the United States back on the track of its Christian heritage. Please pray too, for Dr. James Dobson and the Family Talk ministry. The request for resources that strengthen the family has never been greater, and we need your prayers and gifts so that we are equipped to respond to these cries for help.

God Bless You!

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread

Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: “The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church.” The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, Stephen, ironically brought about the advance of Christianity outside its Jewish base. Forced out of stormy Jerusalem, the scatterin...

In His Eyes

July 23, 2012 Mary Southerland Today's Truth I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be ( Psalm 139:14-15 , NIV). Friend to Friend It was my first day of teaching second grade. While standing at the classroom door, greeting parents and children, I felt a tug on my skirt. I looked down into the beautiful blue eyes of Sammy, one of my new students.  His mother, who was standing beside Sammy, looked at me and said, "I guess you've heard about Sammy.  Good luck!" As she walked away, Sammy said, "She's right. I'm dumb and mean and can't read or write."  Lisa was a tall, blonde and beautiful young woman with zero self-confidence. Lisa was...

La amistad: Ayuda para la santidad

Leer | JUAN 15.12-15 20 de julio de 2012 Cuando Dios creó todo, solo una cosa no tuvo su aprobación. Miró a Adán, quien era el único ser en su clase, y dijo: “No es bueno que el hombre esté solo” (Gn 2.18). El Señor creó a las personas para que tuvieran compañerismo emocional, mental y físico, de modo que pudieran compartir su ser más íntimo unas con otras. Jesús explicó esto a sus discípulos, diciéndoles que debían amarse unos a otros tal como Él los había amado. En una amistad que honra a Dios, dos personas se edifican mutuamente y se animan una a otra a tener un carácter como el de Cristo. Sin embargo, muchas no logran entablar y mantener relaciones que estimulen su fe (Pr 27.17). Lo que hacen es hablar trivialidades propias de simples conocidos: el clima y los asuntos mundiales. Lamentablemente, también los creyentes rehúyen la conversación profunda en cuanto al pecado, la conducta transparente y la vida de acuerdo con los parámetros bíblicos, que servirían para enriquecer ...
