Inhaltsangabe

I have a good friend that I have observed over the years and admire his many accomplishments. He is a best selling author, a successful pastor, a motivational speaker, and seems to have excelled in about every area of his life. I would never wish any of these things to be taken away from him, but I must confess there have been times in my life when I was a bit envious. The one major difference between his life and mine was that he also had a tremendous father who had also been a successful pastor, a college president, and a much sought after professional speaker. I said to myself, " If I had a father like he did, I could have accomplished much more in my life." The words barely came out of my mouth when I heard God say in my spirit, "Well, you didn't have a father like he had, but you can be a father like he had."

Those words spoken so clearly to me that day have prompted my efforts over the last forty years to try and be a good dad. They were the genesis of this book. I wish that I could say that I flipped a switch that day and was a great dad all of a sudden, but that's not the way it played out. I am better than I was but I am still not what I would like to be. My prayer is that something may be said here that will challenge you to try to be a better dad. As I said it is something of a process, or maybe a journey would be a better way to describe it. My advice? Keep walking in the right direction. Don't stop, even when you fail, and you will fail, we all do, just get back in there and keep on keeping on. You have my love and prayers. Feel free to connect with me on Facebook. Bob

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Born to an unwed preacher's daughter in the early 1950s, you would think the odds of having a successful life would have been stacked against him, but just the opposite would be true. The foundation of his grandparents' home and a loving church community would eventually lead the author to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that knew no boundaries. He has lived and is living a blessed life.
