WATCH: New Pro-Life Campaign Ad … It’s a Baby!

I’m delighted to announce that Focus on the Family is officially launching a nationwide “It’s a Baby” ad campaign – today! 

Airing digitally and on television, the spot coincides with the upcoming one-year anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

At Focus, we’re always looking for compelling and even unexpected ways to get the country talking about life. We know that millions will be talking about the issues over the next couple of weeks, and we want to give all people — with varying perspectives — a fresh way to consider those issues. 

Tragically, the culture has gotten too comfortable using antiseptic scientific terms to dehumanize a child in the womb.

Something Significant

One of the most significant ministries over the course of Focus on the Family’s nearly 50-year history is Adventures in Odyssey, a radio drama for children (check here for more information). Each episode presents a great moral lesson about family and faith in an entertaining way.

On our Focus on the Family Broadcast, we’re sharing an Odyssey program called “Something Significant,” which features the character Trent DeWhite, who wants to do something big for God.

Finding Financial Freedom Together as a Couple

For many couples, money can be a source of intense confusion and despair. Most of us weren’t taught how to manage money well. We rely on tips we pick up along the way from family, friends, and social media.

On our Focus on the Family Broadcast “Finding Financial Freedom Together as a Couple,” our guests Bob and Linda Lotich are with us to share wise and godly money management principles that will bless your marriage and put your money to use for the Kingdom of God.

Finding Grace After an Abortion

The Christian community talks routinely about choosing life. One expression of that is reaching out to women in desperate situations before they make the life-altering decision to terminate a pregnancy.

But what about after they’ve chosen abortion?

On our Focus on the Family Broadcast “Finding Grace After an Abortion,” we’re talking to Serena Dyksen – speaker, author, and founder of She Found His Grace, a ministry that helps women who have experienced abortion or sexual trauma – about how to help women who have suffered the trauma of abortion find grace and recovery.

My Last Interview with Dr. Tim Keller

The death last month of Dr. Tim Keller has left a void for many of us who appreciated this good man’s historic ministry.

As it turned out, I had the privilege of being one of the last people to interview Tim, just outside his apartment on Roosevelt Island in New York City. We talked about his book on forgiveness: Forgive: Why Should I and How Can I?  

As I’ve recently written, forgiveness is one of the most powerful forces in the world.

Learning to Love Your Spouse Well

It’s much easier to tell your spouse, “I love you,” than to show them through your actions.

That truth is illustrated in the number of questions we get from married couples about navigating busy schedules, financial issues, and communication and conflict. Each of these topics represent small everyday moments that easily turn into big disruptions to marital unity.

Authors Matt and Lisa Jacobson are with us on our Focus on the Family Broadcast “Learning to Love Your Spouse Well” to encourage husbands and wives to serve and love each other well.

The Collapse of the Nuclear Family, Not the Ever-Changing Climate, is the Crisis of Our Lifetime

We tend to worry about the wrong things, and nowhere is this more prominent and prevalent than when it comes to identifying and focusing on the most critical problem facing humanity.

Contrary to the elite opinions served up across the nation’s major editorial pages and on television news programs, not to mention subtly and cleverly inserted into everything from children’s television, advertisements to major Hollywood releases, it’s not the climate – and not by a lot.

Are Your Five Core Needs Being Met

To experience wholeness, five desires of our hearts must be met:

Security. Who can I trust?

Identity. Who am I?

Belonging. Who wants me?

Purpose. Why am I alive?

Competence. What do I do well?

Each of those are listed in their correct order, by the way. If you feel secure, you’re more likely to discover the deepest passions and strengths of your identity. Out of those, you’ll discover your purpose and develop competence.

Matthew 6:33 says, “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.

Remembering Fallen Heroes and Their Families

The cost of freedom is high.

As today is Memorial Day, our Focus on the Family Broadcast “Remembering the Fallen and Their Families” is an expression of gratitude to the brave servicemen and women who have died defending freedom. We honor the fallen and offer a humble and heartfelt “thank you” to every family who has lost a husband or a wife, a mom or a dad, a son or a daughter, or even a friend or a neighbor.

Understanding the Goodness of God’s Word

On our Focus on the Family Broadcast with our guest author Wendy Speake, “Understanding the Goodness of God’s Word,” we’re discussing the topic of “feasting.” Not on food but on Scripture.

She’s written a great book called The 40-Day Feast: Taste and See the Goodness of God’s Word about how to ingest and savor the Bible and understand God more deeply.

The idea of feasting originated in the Garden of Eden. Before God made humans, he created the food to sustain them.
