How has your year been? I think it healthy to spend time reflecting on the high points of the past year, what I call “glimpses of God’s glory.” A late-summer getaway with my bride was certainly a high point for us. Time with our grown kids as they helped me on Faithful Fathering’s summer adventures, and time with granddaughters were also wonderful high points.

At Faithful Fathering, the high points are always tied to the ...read on

How is one to live in peace in such a messed-up world? “Peace” has been defined as “freedom from disturbance; tranquility,” at least per Webster’s dictionary. I guess we can have our ear buds in, or noise-cancelling headphones on, and be oblivious to the world around us, undisturbed and tranquil. That may be peaceful, for a little while.

Joy to the World may be easy to sing but are you truly joy-filled this time of the year? How is a dad to be joy-filled with all the end-of-year busy-ness?

“Are you pickin’ up what I’m layin’ down?” That was a question posed by a friend from Mississippi. He was verifying that I truly got what he was saying. He wanted to make sure I saw the value in what he was offering. Are your kids “pickin’ up what you are layin’ down”? Are you layin’ down your faith in a way they want to pick it up?

In this second week of Advent, the candle lit represents the ...read on

There is hope. As news cycles produce what seems a never-ending litany of bad news, a Christian dad has to be cognizant of what it means to be in the world, not of it. He cannot ignore happenings in this world, but he can maintain a healthy perspective as he keeps eyes focused on Jesus. December is a great time for dads to lead the family through Advent to help all live into the hope that is the Reason for the season, the Christ-child’s birth.

Advent, starting four Sundays before Christmas, is ...read on
