Hello everyone you're listening to family talk the radio broadcasting ministry of the James

Dobson Family Institute.

I'm Dr. James Dobson and thank you for joining us for this program.

Welcome to Family Talk with your host, psychologist and best-selling author Dr. James Dobson.

I'm Roger Marsh.

On today's program, we are bringing you an inspiring story of a man who listened to God's

calling on his life.

Dr. Richard Furman is in studio talking with Dr Dobson about

leaving his successful career as a doctor to follow God into the mission field

to help those who desperately need it. Let's listen in now to his story on Dr. James Dobson's

family talk. Well ladies and gentlemen this is family talk you can hear us at

this spot five days a week and we talk about the family and issues of relevance

to it and there's no end to the topics it's as infinite as all of God's creation is infinite because it

involves parenting and it involves marriage and medicine and many other subjects.

And speaking of medicine, if you have been listening to family talk in recent months, not so recent,

in fact it goes back a couple of years. You will remember that I've had as a guest, Dr. Richard Furman, who is a

godly man. He works with Franklin Graham and with other

organizations that we're going to talk about and he's back with us today. I just love this man. His heart is for the Lord and his great

passion is to preserve health and life not only in his patients through the practice of medicine, but also in the foods

that we eat and the exercise we take and the weight that we carry and many other things that are of relevance to people

who are trying to preserve the bodies that God has given us.

So Dr. Richard Furman is back with us today and we're not going to talk primarily
