Quiet Times For Busy Parents with Shirley Dobson

Have you found it challenging to balance the demands of marriage and family, while still having devotional time with the Lord? On today's classic edition of Family Talk, Dr. James and Shirley Dobson discuss their best-selling book, "Night Light for Parents," an easy devotional for moms and dads to read every night. Each passage has a high-impact short story, questions that will prompt great conversation, and a brief prayer at the conclusion. Hebrews 3:13 says, “But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called ‘Today,’ so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.” Listen to this edition of Dr. James Dobson’s Family Talk, as Dr. Dobson and Shirley share personal stories of their own family life, and how a commitment to God and to each other can bolster your marriage.
