Hey everybody, Greg Laurie here.

You're listening to the Greg Laurie podcast.

And my objective is to deliver, hopefully, compelling

practical insights and faith, culture, and current events

So thanks for joining me for this podcast.

James Thompson is here.

To say that Dr. James Dobson is one of the most influential

I really, I would say he's a living legend and a man of God

Here in a PhD in child development at USC.

He was associate clinical professor of pediatrics
