Be The Dads – Your kids, Your wife, and this world needs.
That God created us to be and that our kids, family, and the world needs us to be.
It’s interesting as the topic of getting back on track is multi-layered. First, I haven’t been posting here daily as I had been with the excuse that I left my devotional book downstairs. Second, I have a friend who needs to reconcile and realize what is taking place in his family with his kids but…
Are you friends who can sit with someone through the hard times? Do you deal with facts and empathy or misinformation and chaos?

So where are you at in your life today? Who knows you best? Have you ever been asked about your strengths and weaknesses? What about your likes and dislikes? Is there anyone who is better set to answer those questions than you? Have you ever asked God to search you and reveal what He finds?…

As today starts it is interesting to consider how some people answer questions with a question like “Why?”. From an etiquette perspective, we shouldn’t answer questions with a question. Let’s be the dads who aren’t being evasive and uncooperative when conversing. Are you asking “why?” because you are facing suffering or a tragedy? Do you…
Have you ever got yourself into a rut or situation by comparing yourself to others? Don’t compare yourself to others. Did it mess you up because you thought you were better or worse than another dad? We each have our own families so we shouldn’t be comparing and not coveting one other family. Today, let’s…
So you find yourself in a situation and it’s go time, decision time, how do you know what to do? Your circumstances are heating up and you are facing decision time, how will you know what to do? Should you do it? Shouldn’t you do it? What are the risks of doing it? What are…
Will you be a friend indeed? Are you a dad dealing with something that feels overwhelming? Is it related to a friend in need? Are you the one in need? Did something happen that is causing trouble or strife? What are you going to do? How will you choose to respond? Will you be a…
Some say patience is a virtue. I missed getting this post out on time but the topic seemed so important and relevant that I didn’t want to miss it. Are you patient? What events, circumstances, or situations cause your patience to wear thin? How do you respond in moments when you need patience? Do you…
It’s been a while since I’ve posted, and I’m glad today’s topic discusses the importance of doing our part to accomplish God’s plan for our lives. I need to get back into a routine of posting daily again which will feed the ability to start posting podcast episodes too. When God said my purpose was…
As dads, we must be good stewards of what God has given us. No matter how large or small, we are called to be good stewards, and if we can’t be trusted with the little things, how can we be trusted with any larger things? Firstly, how are you doing with the provisions God has…
Nobody knows the day or the time so we need to be ready. Preparedness to wait for the exact perfect timing He has set in motion. We can’t lose hope because it’s taking time, we need to trust Him because His plans for us are for good and not evil and to give us hope…
You might be asking yourself, what does zealous mean? The definition of this adjective tells us that it means “showing great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or objective“.

Over the weekend a great message from 1 Corinthians 13:7 speaking to Hope and Endurance was preached. Pastor Josh pointed out the importance of what we put our hope in because when we put our hope in the wrong things or people who aren’t able to do it, including hope in ourselves, it creates roots…
Protecting our minds and those of our loved ones should be a priority. As a kid, I remember not having to wear a helmet; nowadays it’s a requirement. I also remember how seatbelts weren’t required for a time either, yet they are a requirement too. So if we consider how important our brains are to…
