45. Love Letters to Dads

We wanted to just take this episode to give a shout out to Dads and give credit where credit is due: we share some shout outs, memories and hope for all Dad’s!   Our society and culture has definitely changed the picture of manhood and what being a good Dad requires. TV Dad’s have not accurately depicted what it takes to be a good father.  We know the media and more have stopped celebrating the men and how incredible God designed them!    While all earthly fathers fall short of our perfect Heavenly Father, we believe their role is one of the greatest ones on earth. We are grateful for our own Dads, the incredible models and fathers our husbands are to our children and our hope and desire is that everyone has a chance to stop and recognize no matter your circumstances, that the role of a Dad is extremely important.    Some statistics we shared:  *When fathers are involved, children are two times more likely to go to college, 80% less likely to spend time in jail and 75% less likely to experience teen pregnancy! *Children in father absent homes account for 71% of all high school dropouts, 90% of homelesss and run away children and 63% of youth suicides.    Just take a minute and let those statistics sink in…the numbers don’t lie.    We just want to encourage you that if you have the opportunity, to tell your Dad “thank you” or send your husband a text to say “Thanks for being a great Dad to our kids.” Our hope and prayer is that we continue to value the role of a Dad in (or out) of your home no matter your circumstances.    💙Audible Premium Plus Join our community on Facebook and connect with us on Instagram!  Write an apple review and YOUR review could be read on our next episode!  Hosted by Tori Shirah and Tracy Stine Contact us ➡️ [email protected]
