Summary

One of the most challenging jobs for a Christian parent is to identify the enemy’s threats that come against God’s truths for how to live a righteous life. John 10:10 says, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson meets with Dr. Ted Baehr, founder of the Christian media resource, Movieguide, to discuss his passion to help parents and their children practice discernment and keep God’s Truth alive, especially where it pertains to the entertainment industry.
