Hey there, David Robbins here, president of Family Life, and you know it is hard to cultivate a healthy family.

Even between two healthy people, the odds are stacked against us.

For more than 40 years, family life has provided a safe harbor for moms and dads,

husbands and wives and families all over the world.

Our daily program has become a trusted

place that provides compassionate counsel to parents who want to build God-fearing

homes. And now I'm inviting you to step forward and contribute to a unique matching

challenge that's active right now. Every dollar you give today will be

deployed to bring hope to someone who feels hopeless and every dollar you give

today will be doubled in size because of the matching challenge. One of the things you may not

know is that family life is seeing a fresh movement of God and

momentum and building toward a fruitful season of head. In fact, we've seen an 84%

increase in our engagement with families through radio and

podcasting. Your contribution to the matching challenge will

accelerate our impact in the new year to even more homes. So please take advantage of this opportunity to leverage your year

end gift to family life. Help families defy the odds. Help moms and dads

cultivate godly homes.

You can go to Family Life Today.com to give your gift to the matching challenge

and we look forward to hearing from you today.
