Current Men's Study (Fatherhood)
|
|
Fatherhood is more than providing half the genetic material at conception; it's
being there for the long haul. In Fatherhood we relate how being a father is a demanding
pursuit with a heavenly goal-raising kids who know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
Few things in life can be more intimidating that taking on the role of fatherhood.
Whether it's a planned event or one of life's little surprises it demands
our full attention and a commitment to put our all into it. This study addresses
the challenges in being loving and Christ-like fathers to our families, especially
in a society that frequently portrays dads as buffoons and ill-equipped to care
for themselves, much less their kids.
Full of Scriptural insights and personal observations this study offers help to
current, would-be-, step-, divorced, single or widowed dads, who want to make the
most of their lives with their families. Even as Christ's focus or goal was
to accomplish His Father's mission on earth for our salvation, so should our
objective be to become Christ-like dads for the raising and well-being of our families.
Being a good father isn't an impossible dream, but it does take staying the
course, especially in a world where sacrifice and upright character are often not
highly valued. Difficult as the task may be, there is always hope. With God at the
helm, all fathers-whether rookies or veterans-can know the adventure of fatherhood
as one that is full of promise and possibility for them and their families.
We will meet every Wednesday for 4 sessions starting April 4th, upstairs at
Wegmans (directions are here) starting at 7pm and ending at 8pm.
