Summary

According to Dr. Del Tackett, “Just having a worldview is not sufficient because God calls us to be stewards in this world that He has placed us in, and that means we have to be engaged with the world around us.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tackett encourages listeners that now is not the time to be passive when it comes to the issues at stake in the public square, and we must stand firm on God’s Word in all matters. Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

1:02.1	why it's part of Dr. Dobson's passion, it's our passion as well.
1:05.0	But Dr. Del Tackett, what we're going to hear from him today, talks about an issue that a lot of Christians will overlook and that is not only the severity of how bad things
