Show Notes

Steven Manuel takes time to answer a listener’s email about why fathering feels more like drudgery and less like delight. There could be several factors at play including: Are you and your wife on the same page? Do you enjoy your children? (i.e., are you training and disciplining them?) Do you have a family vision? And do you see fathering as part and parcel with your discipleship? Steven comments on being the first in a family to follow the LORD- that’s what a patriarch is! Steven also takes his mic on the road (literally) and gets the input from Michael, a happy father of 8 in this honest episode. And, for YT viewers: a visit to the treehouse!
