Thoughts from Introduction of They Call Me Dad

I am enjoying my time meeting with other dads and discussing the book, "They Call Me Dad" by Ken Canfield. Our times include reports from how we did on our last week's challenge, prayer for one another, and discussion about our chapter from the book. I believe God is doing some wonderful things in our dads already and it is only the second week.

Here are some questions to think about:

Do you agree with this statement: "Dads, we are standing at a crossroads."

Do you believe your influence can be exponential in future generations?

Do your priorities support "being a father as one of the highest acts of spiritual service"?

The following quotes are from the introduction of the book:

"Dad, if you do not become attentive and involved in the lives of your children, you are putting them at risk. It is your God-given responsibility--and your privilege--to be the best father you can be to your children?" (Page 3)

"Meeting with other men for mutual support and encouragement is one of the best investments you can make to strengthen yourself as a dad." (Page 6)

For those who are not from Hesston, I hope these are helpful for you. If you are in the Hesston area, you are welcome to join us for D6 Dads. Contact me at jl@hesstonmb.org for more information.
