Dear Friends, The outcome of the 2024 presidential election has been determined, and against all odds, Donald J. Trump is our president-elect. Christians petitioned God to save America from the tyranny of a leftist-driven administration, and He answered our prayers. Across voting demographics, the people voted in a mandate fashion for the more conservative platform, with the Republicans winning the White House and a Senate majority. As of the tim... Read More

Dear Friend, As we approach the November 5th election, it is a watershed moment for our country. Dr. James Dobson wrote the following words before the 2020 election, and I am convinced that his compelling message is even more relevant today. For centuries, America has stood as a shining light for liberty and freedom in our nation and around the globe. The world will suffer if we abandon our founding core values. The binary choice before us is tha... Read More

Dear Friend, Approximately 248 years ago, as brave men and women fought valiantly for our country's freedom, Thomas Paine wrote these familiar words that still possess profound relevance: These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily c... Read More

Dear Friend, At a recent meeting, our founder chairman Dr. James Dobson passionately expressed his ongoing concern for the institution of the family and our country's spiritual welfare. He noted the essential need to "get back to the basics" of prioritizing our faith in every aspect of life, especially where it is needed most—within the walls of our homes. If there was ever a breakpoint in America's history when a recalibration of the family is n... Read More

Given the state of the world and the decline of our country, how can any Christian stay at home on Election Day? The stakes are simply too high. —James C. Dobson, Ph.D. Dear Friend, I must warn you upfront that this is not a typical December letter. How nice it would be to focus solely on the warmth and blessedness of this sacred Christmas season. However, what happened on Election Day 2023 must be addressed head-on if we are going to help change... Read More

Dear Friend, My heart is grieved for the innocent Israelis who were massacred recently by the Hamas terrorist group. Precious babies were beheaded, women raped, and the young and old brutally murdered in front of their families. This was nothing less than satanic! Tragically, reports indicate that nearly two hundred hostages are still in captivity. In the wake of these horrendous acts of evil against innocent lives, JDFI and I stand unequivocally... Read More

Dear Friends, I have asked our JDFI president, Joe Waresak, to write our monthly letter to our constituency. He has chosen to address a topic of great concern to me, the attack against biblical manhood and the resulting societal fallout. We share the same passion on this subject, and I commend his letter to you. James C. Dobson, Ph.D. ______ As I write this letter, I stand on the shoulders of the generations of godly men who went before me. I do ... Read More

Dear Friends, Dr. Dobson has asked me, Joe Waresak, President of the Dr. James Dobson Institute, to write this month's letter on a subject that greatly concerns us both—the welfare of children. So much of our secular culture has turned against them, and the fallout is nothing short of devastating. By understanding the extent of this crisis, we can pray and take action to come against it. May God bless you. There is a dangerous and wicked movement... Read More

Dear Friends, You may have heard that Dr. Dobson's beloved wife, Shirley, fell in their home in late May and broke her hip. The fracture required surgery, and she is recovering nicely. Unfortunately, soon after returning home she encountered another bout with the COVID virus, but she is beyond it now. Through it all, Dr. Dobson has never left Shirley's side. This is why you have heard very little from him recently, despite his elation over the Su... Read More
