WASHINGTON, Aug. 21, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ — Today, Family Research Council honors Dr. James Dobson upon his passing at the age of 89.
Tony Perkins, President of Family Research Council, had the following remarks on the passing of Dr. James Dobson:
"Few people have had the positive, Christ-honoring impact upon the family as Dr. Jim Dobson. His legacy will be lasting. My parents used his instructions to shape our home as a family of new Christians, and then I had the privilege of working alongside him to protect marriage and family after he was a part of bringing me to Family Research Council 22 years ago this week.
"Dr. Dobson will be greatly missed, but like other influential Christian leaders of his era, he raised up many more in his wake.
"In every sphere in which he engaged--as an author, psychologist, teacher, policy expert and national leader--he served the cause of Christ and proclaimed God's faithfulness to His people. He brought to public policy a new focus on the timelessness of family.
"Lawana and I extend our sympathy and prayers to Shirley and the Dobson family. Dr. Dobson fought the good fight of faith, finished the course, and kept the faith. He leaves a legacy for his own family and millions of families worldwide. Well done."
