Overview

Fathering comes naturally to God. The rest of us can use some pointers. Who better to provide them than the Father who truly knows best? Following that reasoning, father-and-son authors Kenn and Jeff Gangel explore God's ways of forgiving, communicating with, disciplining, and loving his children. Each chapter is packed with amusing anecdotes and personal vignettes that illustrate how fathers can model godly character for their children. Fathering Like the Father will inspire any dad or men's group with a heavenly perspective on fatherhood.

    Best Fathering Book In Years

    If you buy one fathing book this season, choose this one. It is philosophical yet funny; profound yet simple; short yet thorough. No scolding "you can do better" focus, this book encourages dads and gives practical advice for effective fathering. It's a winner!
