25 years ago, FamilyLife Today® was birthed on 22 radio stations across the U.S.  Today, by God’s grace, the radio program is heard on approximately 1,250 stations in the U.S. and over 800 stations in nearly 40 foreign countries! 

Earlier this month, Bob and Dennis, on behalf of FamilyLife, accepted the National Religious Broadcasters' National Radio Program of the Year award. With this honor, FamilyLife Today has now received this award three times - a record unequaled by any other Christian radio program. That's quite a compliment considering the competition.

“I suppose it's rather nice to receive an award, but frankly here's something else that happened this morning about which I am far more excited.” 

Keith Lynch Audio Group Director for FamilyLife Today 

The following was captured by one of our customer service representatives. It is from a FLT listener, commenting on the programs featuring Dennis and Barbara called "Relating To Your Adult Children” that aired February 27 through March 3.

“Thank you so much for your program the last two days!!!! How timely! I have been truly blessed by your program on dealing with adult children. I have three sons who are now grown and I find myself more frustrated now then when they were younger! My oldest is now 30 and still lives at home; my middle son is married and struggling and my youngest son is the "prodigal" that I'm asking God to help me love (LOL!). God's timing is so awesome! After I listened to your show on Wednesday, my daughter-in-love and son called me that evening to help with an argument they were having. When I tuned in on Thursday morning (today), I found out that I had done the right thing by listening and gently offering a little advice. Please pray for me and my three sons. They are so precious to me and I know that God has so much more in store for them than they even realize. I think I'd like to send my son and his wife to a Weekend to Remember. My husband and I attended years ago and it was instrumental in our marriage (we've been married for 32 years). Again, thank you for being where God has placed you and know that your ministry is touching people everywhere!” FLT listener

Bottom line? Awards come and go, but real life change affects generations - including those yet unborn. To that end, please pray for this dear woman, and for millions of other listeners just like her. For many of them, FamilyLife Today is their best and perhaps only lifeline to a Biblical worldview of marriage and family. 

Take time to listen to FamilyLife Today on the radio, podcast or website and see how God might use what you hear to bless you or someone you know that could benefit from the content. I am know I am always blessed and encouraged when I take time to tune in during my drive to work.
