Christian leaders remember James Dobson for his 'innovation, fearlessness and biblical wisdom'

3. ADF CEO Kristen Waggoner

Alliance Defending Freedom CEO, President and Chief Counsel Kristen Waggoner addressed Dobson's death in a statement published Thursday.

"The world has lost a mighty voice for truth and an incredibly influential servant of Christ today," she asserted. "Dobson's bold leadership and commitment to the Gospel shaped the lives of so many and will continue to do so many years after his passing."

"We know that death is not the end, and we are confident he is walking victoriously into the arms of his Savior and hearing the words, 'Well done, good and faithful servant,'" Waggoner stated. "ADF is grateful for the vision and inspiration Dobson provided us, and we extend our warmest sympathies to Shirley and the rest of the Dobson family."
