Well if everything is just hunky-dorey, why is James Dobson having to start his own radio program?
Dr. Dobson chose to begin the process of leaving Focus on the Family 7 years ago. He did not want the ministry to fail after his death, and so he began to loosen the reigns to other godly men and women. He stepped down from the Presidency, and then withdrew from the Board, and now withdrew from the radio program.
Dr. Dobson isn’t really starting a new radio program. His son Ryan has had a talk show for a while now, and Dr. Dobson is joining him. The program is now called “Family Time” — and features Dr. Dobson and his son. It’s not simply a re-do of “Focus on the Family” radio program, but is something with a distinct father-son personality.
Dr. Dobson has affirmed his departure, and said many times that though it is difficult to leave a ministry he founded 33 years ago, he believes it is the Lord’s ministry and that it is the Lord’s will that now is the time for him to move on.
