Family Talk

For more than 40 years, Dr. James Dobson has served alongside families and helped guide them in applying biblical principles to their lives. The Dr. James Dobson Family Institute, established in 2017 as an expansion of the Family Talk ministry, enables the organization to have a greater impact in the vital areas of faith, family, and culture. The four areas of the expanded ministry efforts consist of Dr. James Dobson’s Family Talk, the Dobson Education Center, the Dobson Policy Center, and the Dobson Digital Library. Each ministry pillar provides a biblically-rooted source for Christian families to turn to for encouragement, inspiration, and time-tested resources.

The core mission of the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute is to preserve the biblical institution of marriage by encouraging, inspiring, supporting, and leading families to build their lives on God’s Word. Our mission is driven by Dr. James Dobson’s legacy of serving families with broadcasts, videos, articles, leadership training, and policy advocacy to ensure the next generation of families are equipped to stand firm with answers to life’s most difficult questions.
