    Dobson now supports culture over Biblical Teachings
    Why isn’t James Dodson and Family Talk speaking out against the false anti-biblical “Pastors” Paula White and Jennifer Corn? If these women cannot follow the clear teaching of the Bible why would Dr. Dobson support them? Has he gone liberal? I’m confused and sadden by this. I have listened to Dr. Dobson since 1985, but now I feel I must stop and also must warn others of his new non-Biblical support of female pastors. He used to defend the Bible over the culture…has he given up the fight?

    Burn His Books
    Very sad to see this man still influencing people seeking to be good Christians. His books led my parents astray and caused me a great deal of trauma and pain. Thankfully they have since repented and forsaken his bizarre views portraying children who may be struggling as some kind of opponent to be conquered, as scheming plotting brats, and celebrating causing children pain. This man is a menace and a charlatan.

    Essential
    I’ve listened to Dr Dobson since childhood, due to my mother always listening on Saturday mornings. He has been a staple in my home, and his shows are practical, applicable, and essential for everyday Christian and family life topics. Thank you, Dr Dobson.

    They’re gone
    I’ve listened to this podcast for several years. I love each and everyone of them! They do a great job. Went to go listen to an episode today… there’s only two episodes left from 2023. Where they all go?

    Men in Marriage 2
    I tried to listen to both parts of the podcast about Men in Marriage and the 1st one was OK but hardly had anything new for me. Mr. Dobson and his guest lost me in the 2nd part when they talked about men as victims rather than children of God and followers of Christ. Women do not respect men because they are financially dependent on them - that is not a respect, at best it is fear. Women respect and submit to GODLY men. It’s time for men to own their relationship with God and women will submit rather than making excuses and blame feminists, governments, etc.

  • Reviewer Sun1
    One of the best resources for family.
    A blessing to those who seek to be better at following God's Word, as to be better for their loved ones and community.

    No thanks
    Growing up, our home was littered with Dobson books. Even as a kid, the ideas he espoused seemed really dumb and misogynistic. Doesn’t seem like he’s changed in 30 years, so good on him for staying on brand?

    I've always loved Dr Dobson and his steadfast commitment to Christ our Lord. He has the kindest voice, full of love and reverence to everyone. He exemplifies what Christian living should be
  • Sean & Collette
    So thankful!
    We have been following Dr. James Dobson for over 20 years. He has been so helpful with raising our children and building our marriage on a strong foundation. We are so very blessed by his obedience to the Lord!

    Would rather condemn homosexuals than love them.
    Let people work out the fine details of their faith with God themselves. That is between the person and God. Stop telling people that they can’t connect with God because of their unchosen sexuality. This is the churches biggest misstep, & James Dobson is the face of this misstep.

    Incredibly helpful and completely reliable information
    I’m so grateful for the investment that those in the James Dobson Family Institute have made to make this podcast available. This information and the tools made available by this ministry has made being dedicated to my marriage and raising my children well a much more pleasing and manageable privilege. Thank you for your service to our families!

    Fabulous!
    I loved the recent podcast with Allie Elliot, and agree with Dr. Dobson— I hope she writes a book! I learned so much and have new things to put into practice with my picky eater. Dr. Dobson is solid— I’ve listened to him my whole life, and I’m so glad to find that he’s doing a podcast!

    Redeeming The Time
    As a young man from Jamaica West Indies in America, searching for truth, meaning and purpose, God has used men such as Dr Dobson, DJames Kennedy, Chuck Colson, R C Sproul and others to open my eyes and lead me to the Truth of God’s Word. Through Dr Dobson, listening to Focus on the Family, I’ve learned what it means to carry out God’s directive to be a good husband, father, neighbor and citizen for the glory of God. I remember, as a young man, rushing home or to my car after work, so I do not miss Focus on the Family and Adventures in Odyssey. And every election year, I would not miss my opportunity to carry out my civic duties to vote that I may preserve the knowledge of God for my self and my posterity (as noted by the framers of our constitution) by electing the candidates best able to govern our country, locally and nationally. The passion, knowledge, understanding and zeal, I learned from Dr Dobson! And when I married and became a father, I shared this with my family. I especially enjoyed Adventures in Odyssey with my daughter. I made me feel young all over again! I felt sad when he retired from Focus On the Family. But now that I found his podcast, Family Talk, I am delighted, learning more with each interviews, and sharing with my family and friends. God bless Dr Dobson, a very rich man indeed!

    Your program saved me at times
    I have listened to Dr. Dobson since the 80’s . For us on the family came on at 12:00 everyday. I never missed it. Dr.Do son helped me raise my two kids, who are now in their mid to late 30s. The messages were always timely, just what I needed. Thank you for all the encouragement and how to be a parent. You really made a huge difference in my life.

    Thank you for the inspiring history podcast with David Barton. So much truth has been erased from our childrens and grandchildrens grasp, biblically and historically. May God bless your efforts.

    A husband and father in need
    I was a 19 year old husband and father. I desperately needed guidance and direction. Thank God Dr. Dobson was there for me. I listened to Focus on the Family on my way to work everyday. Now it’s FamilyTalk podcast.

    Critical thinking
    You are what is wrong with this country. History is History, you can learn from it BUT you can’t change it. The church leaders needs discernment like never before.

    This man is not preaching Biblical truth! It is disgusting to think so many people believe this false brand of Christianity. All, I hear or read from his organization is talk of hate for just about anyone or anything this man thinks is not biblical. Which ironically seems to be any idea that does not come from Donald Trump. If you actually read the Bible you will not see Jeaus Christ speak anything like the hate this organization spews out. It is sad so many people are so lost and buy into this brand of Christianity!
  • cozychild
    Some questionable guests/content
    Have much love and respect for FOTF; however, guests such as Johnathan Cahn is not well thought out as it is up to debate whether Cahn is a prophecy peddler or not with most serious apologetics leaders agreeing that he is not coming from a wholesome place. Additionally, Pastor Jefress and his doom and gloom about Americas future is too depressing and while it may or may not be accurate, how does Jefress know what the future holds? Remember the commandments. And the greatest of all - to love one another. And what does Scripture admonish us to focus on? ........ whatever is true, whatever is praiseworthy, noble, beautiful, of good report. Think on these things.

    Excellence
    Dr Dobson has been a solid rock. I grieved a bit when the FotF turn over went down. Ive been married 35 yrs, raised 4 sons under the DAILY influence of FotF. I thought Dr D wanted to retire! I am so sorry I didnt know, or support. It was only recently that i found this podcast. I breathed a physical deep breath hearing your voice again. My eyes filled hearing that “grandpa” sound in your voice. Please know- Your influence is real. We all dont have a marriage in agreement, kids that turn out the way we thought, or a walk that looked like we thought it would. But your words and your guests- they encourage and challenge, clarify and cause questions. Thank you! Gratitude to Dr D, Mrs D and to our Lord and Savior for knitting the things all together!

    My go to for Biblical wisdom
    My go to for Biblical wisdom. I’ve been listening to Dr. Dobson since the early 1980’s on the radio and now thru his podcasts. Praise God for Dobson’s consistency and keeping Christ as the focus. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Dobson for your courage and service to our country and to our family.

    Toxic people podcast
    Good summary and simple message to walk away from toxic people. However the issue is way more complex when it comes to marriage, work, and family members. We can’t just walk away from loved ones. This subject needs more practical solutions or advice. Toxic people just aren’t going away.
  • Allie bw
    Enjoying the podcast
    I used to listen to “Focus on the Family” by Dr Dobson on the radio in the late 70s and early 80s before I started working. I was unable to listen to it during my career. 31 years later, I recently found this podcast. I am so happy to able to listen to Dr.. Dobson’s broadcast at anytime during the day.

    Dr. Dobson, timeless wisdom
    I am so happy to have benefited from the timeless wisdom of Dr Dobson. I raised 4 children on his timeless wisdom. It’s timeless, because it comes from the author of ALL wisdom, the Lord!! I was also introduced to so many Godly men, through his ministry: Tony Evans, Pam Tebow, Zig Zigler, Jay Seculow, and a host of other guests, whom I have enjoyed over the years. Thank you, Dr. Dobson, for all you do!!

    Great Podcasts
    I’ve listened to Dr. Dobson for many years and have read many of his books. He’s a trusted godly man with much wisdom and knowledge of God and dealing with kids. Highly recommend him!

    Hateful Influence
    I was raised by two Christian parents and they did a great job. I grew up in the church and myself identify as a Christian as an adult. Before my mom started listening to this program she was more open minded and loving towards others. Ever since she started listening, I find that she is colder, judgmental, and unwilling to put herself in others shoes as much. She follows and believes anything that is said on this station even when there is no fact or logic behind it. I’m all for a good Christian message but we cannot follow a leader blindly, we must think and decide for ourselves.
  • Natural mamma
    Thank you
    This is exactly what my marriage has looked like it. It brought me to tears. Are the sources for help listed?
