Produktbeschreibung
When Brian's weekend visitation with his kids ended with unenthusiastic hugs from his children, he knew it was another failed weekend with them. He was failing as a father. But a chance encounter with Peter, a bespectacled man with a crooked, ironic smile, changed everything. As they started meeting after each weekend of visitation, Peter showed Brian God's plan for fatherhood. In the Beginning . . . Dads is not a theology book; it is the story of two men, an older man walking a young father through the issues of fatherhood. It allows you to sit in on their conversations as Peter walks Brian through the first three chapters of Genesis showing how it applies to God's plan for fatherhood, what happened to that plan, and the struggles all fathers face. In the Beginning . . . Dads:Provides clarity about the roles God intended for fatherhood. Demonstrates how being created in the image of God affects fatherhood today. Describes what happened to God's plan for fatherhood. How to face the temptations every father struggles with. How fathers differ from mothers and why that difference is critical to children. How to make a plan to become the father God intends you to be. This book is for every father: for fathers who live with their children, for fathers who don't, and for fathers who are estranged from their children.
Autorenporträt
Tony is the author of In the Beginning . . . Dads the first of a planned six-volume series called Fatherhood in Genesis. As a father, Tony has been a resident father, a nonresident father, and a stepfather. His creative, think outside-the-box approach to fatherhood was the result of a serious study of what the Bible teaches about fatherhood. He learned that God calls all men to fatherhood, whether it is to be a father of his physical children, or to be a spiritual father to other boys. Fatherhood is what defines us as men. It is not just the ability to produce physical children but imparting ourselves as fathers to others that they may see our true Father in heaven. Tony has a Master's degree from Reformed Theological Seminary, Washington DC and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Biblical Studies at Lancaster Bible College. His goal is to teach biblical fatherhood to men, and to equip men to live that calling out and to encourage them to understand their fatherhood in the light of God's Fatherhood of us all. Tony lives in Southern Maryland with his dog and cat. His children-three of his own and a stepson?are adults and living on their own. He lost his wife to cancer in 2019.
