COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Oct. 29, 2014 /Christian Newswire/ -- Hundreds of thousands of people in early October saw the inaugural film of Dr. James Dobson's new series BUILDING A FAMILY LEGACY, in a simulcast world premiere.

The Legacy project caps the decades-long career of America's best-known family expert and encompasses eight films, eight books and eight study guides. More than 7,000 churches and other groups simulcast YOUR LEGACY, the first film in the series. The full series, with related books and guides, are available now for individuals, families and church libraries at Christian retailers.

"This is the culmination of my life's pursuit—helping parents build a family legacy of faith to endure for generations," Dr. Dobson said. "Despite what the media and popular culture claim, there is deep hunger for a family emphasis on faith and passing our values to the next generation. The worldwide turnout for BUILDING A FAMILY LEGACY shows it."

Simulcast sites span 49 states and 21 countries. Dr. Dobson's vital encouragement for families reached many areas especially challenging for faith messages to reach, including Malaysia, China and Afghanistan.

The centerpiece of BUILDING A FAMILY LEGACY is an eight-DVD series that combines four updated films from Dr. Dobson's classic Focus on the Family videos, with four new films from Dr. Dobson and his son, Ryan.

The simulcast film, YOUR LEGACY, is a personal story of faith that traces Dr. Dobson's own family history. More than a century ago, his great-grandfather began to pray daily that the next four generations would be Christians.

Viewers raved about YOUR LEGACY.

  • "Brought tears to my eyes to see Dr. Dobson sharing from his heart again, and it challenged all of us."
     
  • "Younger parents at our church had never 'met' Dr. Dobson, and I was thrilled to share this national treasure with them!"
     
  • "I was so impressed! Wonderful presentation. It captured my attention all the way through. I went through quite a few tissues."

Supporting the films are new books from Dr. Dobson and Ryan. Dr. Dobson's 'Your Legacy' tells his personal story and offers practical ways to build a legacy of faith. 'Wanting to Believe' is the inspiring story of Ryan's spiritual journey and a powerful account of how his parents’ faith became his own.

The Legacy project also brings revised and updated versions of Dr. Dobson's classic works. Titles include bestselling books 'Dare to Discipline,' 'The Strong-Willed Child,' 'Bringing Up Boys' and 'Bringing Up Girls.' A new generation is about to discover advice and insight that has guided millions of parents around the world.
