Gingrich Tells Dobson He’s ‘Sought God’s Forgiveness’
Former U.S. Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich tells Focus on the Family Chairman James C. Dobson, Ph.D., he has “gotten on my knees and sought God’s forgiveness” for his personal moral failings in a two-part installment of Dobson’s international radio program airing Thursday and Friday.
Gingrich also discusses his new book, “Rediscovering God in America,” and the rising threat of radical Islam to the West.
On day two of the program, Dobson compares the attitudes of today’s Muslim radicals to the actions of the Nazis in the 1930s — a hatred of Jews and a desire for hegemony and domination.
“It bothers me,” Dobson says, “that many of our leaders don’t seem to get that — Republicans and Democrats.”
Gingrich agrees, noting that “there are 15- to 25-year-old men who are willing to die as long as they kill you.”
“It’s a warrior culture,” he adds, “that has been true historically for 6,000 or 7,000 years.”
The program will be available online Thursday and Friday. Visit the following link to listen: http://listen.family.org/daily/.

Focus on the Family founder James Dobson has dealt a potentially devastating blow to Fred Thompson’s presidential aspirations, saying the former senator is not a Christian.
“Everyone knows he’s conservative and has come out strongly for the things that the pro-family movement stands for,” Dobson – considered the most politically powerful evangelical figure in the U.S. – said in a phone call to Dan Gilgoff, senior editor at U.S. News & World Report.
“[But] I don’t think he’s a Christian. At least that’s my impression.”
Thompson’s spokesman Mark Corallo took issue with the statement.
“Thompson is indeed a Christian,” he said. “He was baptized into the Church of Christ.”
