10/16/21 Precious
The definition of the word precious is “something that is of great value or high priced, highly esteemed or cherished.” Even though this word is not often used to describe men, the definition really fits how God sees his husbands and fathers. In His eyes, we are highly esteemed and very valuable. You, as a […]

10/15/21 Your Word
At one time, I was blessed to live in a farm community where the longtime farmers have a higher code than you see most places. In essence, their word is their bond. To shake on something is closer to the covenant meaning in which that gesture originated. Shaking hands (actually wrists) was a blood tie […]

10/14/21 Stewards, Not Owners
If you are a believer, it’s a given that God owns everything. He’s the sole owner of every heartbeat of all who have ever had blood pumping through their veins. The cattle on every hill are marked with His brand. Then why is it we, as humans, have the audacity to claim anything as our […]

10/13/21 Concealed Carry
There is a license called a concealed carry license. It means you have the freedom to carry a weapon to protect yourself. To obtain that license, you need to attend school to learn about weapons and your responsibilities when you carry one. As a member of the body of Christ and as a husband and […]

10/12/21 Request Backup
When a police officer senses he needs help, he makes a call to his unit to request backup. He’s calling for assistance in a situation where he understands he can’t do it alone. As a husband and father, have you ever called upon your family and requested backup? Have you ever humbled yourself to the […]

10/11/21 A Man of God
“He’s a man of God.” There is no higher honor one can pay another than to call him a man of God. In a world of people seeking reputation or attempting to place their mark on society, this man stands out. Think of the heart joy you would have if your wife or children were […]

10/09/21 The Fight
Are you fighting for your marriage? Are you standing in the gap for your children as they war with the world and its ways? You should be! I am privileged to have a wonderful daughter who’s definitely aware of what’s going on around her. She has a heart for the lost and hurting, and notices […]

10/08/21 Don’t Be Deceived
In today’s world, there are many opportunities to see the deception many people function in. People fight for things that are firmly against God’s Word with rabid zeal, unable to see the impact their ideas have – especially in eternity. As a husband and father, you must know God and His Word, or you will […]

10/07/21 What’s Going On?
A while ago, my family and I had the opportunity of having the Lord seemingly remove just about everything from us for about two-and-a-half years – friendships, finances, ministry. Sometimes it felt as if even His presence had left us. What were we going to do with that? We’d be the first to say that […]

10/06/21 Absentee Ballots
Are you sending absentee ballots to your wife and children? Do you love them from afar because you are too busy to spend the proper time with them so they can know a Christ-like husband and father? If you are, your priorities are out of order, no matter what’s getting in the way of an […]

10/05/21 Higher Fences
Fathers, if you continually find yourself putting more restrictions on your children and applying stronger consequences to help them comply with what you feel is best, you’re doing something wrong. You can build higher and higher fences all you want as they continue to grow, but one day they’ll find a way over the fence […]

10/04/21 True Obedience
Jesus learned obedience through the things He suffered, meaning the times that He won over His flesh. Complete obedience means that He willingly and joyfully submitted to His Father in all things, no matter what. The heart of someone who is truly obedient thrives in doing another’s will, forsaking his own will in the process. […]
