EFI 17- Father’s Day Special: The High Call of Biblical Fatherhood

Dads have a God-given calling to raise godly children in a broken world, and they need encouragement to embrace this important role in their families.

• Children are a heritage from the Lord, not a burden but a legacy
• Fathers are the spiritual thermostats for their homes, setting the temperature for the family
• Nearly one in four American children live without a father in the home
• When a father becomes a Christian first, there's a 93% chance the entire family will follow
• Biblical examples of godly fatherhood include Joseph (Jesus's earthly father) and the patriarchs
• Practical ways to be a godly father: lead spiritually, be present, speak life-giving words, model integrity
• Surround yourself with other Christian men who can mentor you and help you grow as a father
