Our Daddy Who Art In Heaven

Summary

In *Our Daddy Who Art In Heaven*, I explore the deeply personal journey of fatherhood, drawing from my own experiences as both a father and a Christian. As I reflect on the role of an earthly father, I can't help but see the parallels with the loving care of God, our Heavenly Father. The book is built around questions children often ask their dads, like "Daddy, Are You There?" and "Daddy, Do You Care?", which I answer through a blend of personal reflection and spiritual insight.
My journey into fatherhood began unexpectedly, with the adoption of my daughters after years of struggling with infertility. That experience reshaped my understanding of what it means to be a father, and through it, I began to connect more deeply with how God loves and cares for us, His children. Throughout the book, I reflect on my relationship with my own father and how it has shaped my growing understanding of God as the ultimate father figure.
In each chapter, I dive into themes of love, security, guidance, and care, pulling from my own life and biblical teachings. I explore how we, as human fathers, can reflect God's love and patience, while also recognizing the pain that comes from absent or imperfect fatherhood. Most importantly, I share how God fills that gap, offering the perfect example of fatherly love.
The tone is warm and reflective, and my hope is that this book will offer encouragement to fathers and to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of God as a father figure in their lives.
