Richard Kannwischer | on God as the model for fatherhood.

In this interview, Spencer Dalke talks with pastor Richard Kannwischer about fatherhood, masculinity, and the importance of understanding God as our Father. Drawing from both Scripture and his own experience as a parent, Kannwischer reflects on how earthly fathers are called to model God’s care, courage, grace, and presence in the lives of their children. The conversation explores the challenges facing families today, including social media, anxiety, the decline of fatherhood, and confusion surrounding masculinity, while emphasizing the need for fathers to move from passivity to active engagement. Kannwischer also discusses how parents can cultivate grace-filled homes that balance truth and love, establish healthy boundaries, and anchor their children’s identity in Christ rather than performance. This episode points listeners back to the heart of Christian parenting: abiding in God, depending on His strength, and helping the next generation discover the security, freedom, and flourishing that come from knowing the Father.  Connect with Richard Kannwischer on Facebook, Instagram, and at RichardKannwischer.com.  For more faith-filled, Gospel-centered content, download the Pilgrim Radio app today on Google Play and Apple, or stream at PilgrimRadio.com.
