The Surprising Influence of a Father
High rates of divorce and non-marital childbearing mean that about half of children today are likely to live some of their childhood in a home where their father does not live. The government spends $100 billion each year dealing with the problem of fatherlessness, while at the same time contributing to the problem by godless education systems, welfare programs, and bad divorce law (that does not take God's law into account.)
The problem will never be fixed by government, while the hearts of fathers have yet to be turned to the sons. This will only happen one father at a time. Stephen Newell, MD, Director of a program called Men of Valor, challenges dads to be a dad, as God defines it in His Word. Whether a father is single, divorced, married and in trouble, or married and in a stable marriage, it's never too late for a father to learn what it is to be father as God meant it.
