Dr. James C. Dobson, Jr. (1936 – 2025)

It is with great sadness that we heard of Dr. James Dobson’s passing. He was a dear friend of TCC Founder Howard Phillips and TCC President Jim Pfaff.

Jim had the honor of working for him as a National Representative for Family Policy Councils at Dr. Dobson’s Focus on the Family.

Remembering a Faithful Servant

Jim recounted a few of his memories from working with Dr. Dobson:

“This was a great man who not only helped millions of families but faithfully spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

He had a pulse on what’s been happening with the deterioration of our culture—all the way back to the 1970s.”

A Voice Ahead of His Time

“With the looming election of Barack Obama in 2008, Dr. Dobson made some startling predictions about what would happen. He predicted that the Supreme Court would rule to make same-sex marriage the law of the land. He predicted that the Boy Scouts would no longer exist as an organization. And that elementary schools would give compulsory training in ‘gender identity’ as early as grade one.”

“He saw where society was going. And he did all he could with the megaphone he had to turn it around. What a great man.”

A Lasting Legacy

Dr. Dobson reached millions with his flagship program, Family Talk, aired on more than 1,300 terrestrial radio outlets and numerous digital channels. His voice for faith, family, and truth impacted generations and will continue to inspire future ones.

Well done, good and faithful servant.

JOIN TCC IN STOPPING THE ATTACKS ON OUR FREEDOM.

If the liberals have their way, our speech will no longer be free, our guns will become outlawed, and every other right we cherish will be endangered. Let your voice be heard and tell our government to uphold the Constitution, and continue to keep America the land of the free and the home of the brave.

THE PLEDGE:

I join the overwhelming majority of conservative Americans to demand that the government no longer violate our Constitutional rights.

I stand with all Americans and affirm our Constitutional rights and urge all candidates and elected officials to affirm the same.
