In an age where fathers are separated from their families for most of the day, how can we fulfill the biblical mandate to train our children when "you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up" (Deuteronomy 6)? Given our current culture, is it possible to integrate family, work and ministry in a biblical manner? What is God's provision for raising godly children and what are our responsibilities? Read on to discover God's vision for fathers as we are challenged from the Scripture to balance the areas of family, work and ministry and to blend these three ingredients to form a godly stew, a sweet smelling aroma to God.

This review is from: A Father's Stew: The Biblical Integration of Family, Work & Ministry (Paperback)
Used this book in our man group at church. They liked it so much that the older men said that they wished they had read this book years ago. Many even asked for more books to give out to family and friends.
