Becoming The Man He's Never Seen | Week 3 | Dr. Phillip Martin

What kind of parent are you really raising your children to become?In this sermon — "The Man Who Is Followed" — part of the series "Becoming the Man He's Never Seen" — we open Proverbs 20:7 and take an honest, sometimes uncomfortable look at how the way we live shapes the children we raise.Dr. Phillip Martin walks through 8 types of dads (from the Devoted Dad to the Anchor Dad), unpacks the concept of good fruit, bad fruit, and bruised fruit, and challenges every parent to ask the questions we often avoid: If your kids follow in your footsteps, will they succeed? Will they be happy? Will they know God?This isn't a message about guilt — it's about legacy. Your children are watching every decision you make, every word you say, and every way you love (or don't love) the people around them.Whether you're a parent trying your best, someone still carrying the scars of how YOU were raised, or a young person who will be a parent one day — this episode will speak directly to your heart.Scripture: Proverbs 20:7 | Psalm 127:4 | Psalm 37:25Topics Covered:- The 8 types of fathers — which one are you?- How a father's absence creates a void that lasts a lifetime- Why your relationship with your spouse is your children's marriage blueprint- Breaking free from generational curses- Securing blessings for the next generation- Why "train up a child" is the closest thing to a parenting guarantee the Bible offersSubscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a parent who needs to hear it.
