Dr. James C. Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family and a towering figure in American evangelicalism, passed away on August 21 at the age of 89. A child psychologist by training, Dobson rose to national prominence through his parenting advice radio broadcasts and by building Focus on the Family into one of the most influential Christian organizations in the U.S.

Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, in 1936, Dobson began his career as a child psychologist, emphasizing traditional family structures and biblical parenting. In 1977, he founded Focus on the Family, which grew into a powerful evangelical media ministry through radio, print, and broadcast that reached millions worldwide.

Throughout his career, Dobson played a key role shaping conservative Christian engagement in politics. He founded the Family Research Council as a political advocacy arm, advised five U.S. presidents from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump, and stood as a leading voice against abortion and same-sex marriage. His influence earned him a place among the most impactful evangelical leaders of his generation.

After stepping down from Focus on the Family in 2010, he continued his work via the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute and the nationally syndicated Family Talk radio show. His broadcasts, syndicated on hundreds of radio stations, remained a significant platform for promoting conservative Christian values until his passing.

Dobson leaves behind a powerful legacy as both a counselor to families and a strategist for conservative causes. Survived by his wife of 64 years, Shirley, their two children, and grandchildren, he will be remembered for his unwavering faith, deeply held convictions, and lasting influence on America’s religious and cultural life.
