Steadfast Dads — The First Duty of a Dad

In my readings, I came across this article that I thought was well done of Christian Family and on a father's role in particular.  I think parents and especially fathers will find this article helpful.  Below you will find the start if the article.  You can click the picture of Martin Luther and his family below to get to the full article.  Let me know what you think in the comment section, by clicking on the pencil icon below this post.



Here is the start:

The first duty of Dad is to know who is boss.  No, it’s not you.  And it’s not your children.  It’s God the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth.  “I believe that God has made me.”  In making you he has defined for you what you are all about.  The fatherhood of God determines for us Christian fathers what fatherhood is all about.

Fathers, you don’t need your children’s permission to be their father.  God made you their father.  God decides what you are to do.  Your children don’t decide.  You don’t decide.  God decides.

God has given to fathers and mothers the responsibility of teaching God’s word to their children.  (Read more of the article by clicking on the picture above.)
