Happy Father’s Day! I had the best daddy ever! PTL! My daddy took the responsibility of being a godly father to heart! PTL! Sadly, many children in todays world are not blessed like I was. Many children never get a chance to go to Sunday school, or to Church, because their daddy and mommy did not get the opportunity either or chose just not to go. It is a generational problem here in America. Many grow up without God in the home. I will be preaching on this topic on Father’s Day in Grants, New Mexico at ‘The Way, The Truth and The Life Ministries.’ See above. I pray for more Christian men and women in America. Let us review Christian responsibilities of dads. Maybe you have become a bit off course. I preach the following at weddings. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them (Gen. 1:27). Children are facing things that I never had to face growing up. Man has created in his own mind different sexes! My goodness sakes! We are so very thankful for parents that fight for what is right for their children! Let us encourage all in the name of JESUS! It is so very, very hard to be a Christian dad and mom in this dark world. My heart goes out to them. Sharon and I are parents and grandparents. Today, we honor not only dad’s, but also mom’s. For Father’s Day: Millions of men around the world faithfully strive to honor God in all their vocations in life.
