When we take a Bible in our hands, we are actually holding a user's manual for fathers. Story after story, it reveals our heavenly Father's love for his Son---and for us. It also shares the accounts of earthly fathers whose examples we'll want to either imitate or avoid. The twelve chapters in Fathers of the Bibleoffer slices from the biblical stories of men who were fathers. From them, we can learn something about the tasks, privileges, challenges, and failures of fatherhood. We'll discover the faithfulness of Noah, the conniving of Jacob, the unbridled passion of David, and the quiet confidence of Joseph, Jesus' earthly father. Each of these men were dads. Their geographic settings and life circumstances were vastly different from ours, but the struggles and challenges of fatherhood are remarkably similar. Designed for personal prayer and study or for use in small groups, Fathers of the Biblewill help you ground your relationship with your children on God's Word.

A necessary read for necessary Father's love for our lives now.,
By
This review is from: Fathers of the Bible: A Devotional (Hardcover)
I found this book to be categorically effective to offer a unique personal view where
each of us grow from a Father's Love...or not. Examples of Father to father to father even way back when [biblically] provides how not much has changed familywise...then to now as some feel we are so superior in this day and age as compared to then. It is a good source to base how to deal with our issues and how not to....learning from the past and not repeating it over and over ignorantly. God is the same then as now so when are we really going to "get it" and make room for HIM in our daily lives. We unknowingly & unconsciously need the FATHER's love when we recognize this foundational spiritual deficit missing in our modern fatherless family trends we can activate HIM to fullfill HIS original design within each of us. Buy "daddy's song" by Dennis Jernigan cd / mp3 and soak in HIS Love daily for a year or more to gain revelation for what is missing in most of our upbringing....HIS unconditional love...even if your earthly father was all that you could ask for. God is love and love is God so foundational changes are forthcoming when you know that you know and have the original Father's love despite your earthly father's experience {good or bad}.
