Re: Evangelist Dobson parts with Focus on the Fami
These events are called succession planning.
Quote:
Earlier this year, Focus on the Family laid off 8% of its work force, casualties of a donation shortfall. That came on top of another round of layoffs last year.
A child psychologist and author, Dobson has become more vocal about politics in recent years. He sharply criticized Democratic candidate Barack Obama in the buildup to the 2008 election, saying Obama distorted the Bible and had a "fruitcake interpretation" of the Constitution — characterizations Obama rejected.
Critics portray Dobson as part of an older generation of evangelical leaders whose influence is waning, and point to younger leaders who are taking up the environment and poverty as political causes.
