John Paulk and his wife Ann discussed their recent challenges with Dobson on Focus's "Re-igniting the Hope for Homosexuals." If you have the RealPlayer, you can listen to the
October 10 broadcast.
Or listen to the
October 13 broadcast in which Dobson began by talking about Trout's departure.
Read two Focus articles that talk about Trout's influence and biking experience. "
Wheels of Fortune" is mainly about upcoming Focus events, but "
The Ride of Your Life" is about Trout's son-in-law's cross-country ride with the radio announcer.
Trout has written two books,
Off The Air, in 1995, a compilation of stories from behind the scenes at Focus on the Family, and
The Heart of America, in 1998, which details Trout's cross-country bike ride.

Trout, a Senior Vice President at Focus, was instrumental in planning their new fundraising challenge,
The National Bike Ride for the Family. The cycling event includes 50 rides, one in each of the 50 states. Focus had previously scheduled numerous rides to be spear-headed by Trout through 2002.
