"Our Father" [Importance of Fatherhood in the Church & Our World]

God describes Himself as “Father,” and Pastor Allen uses Scripture to illustrate why that male descriptor is central to our understanding of God, and our relationship with Him. He also discusses the importance of fatherhood—a role assigned specifically to men. Recognizing that our earthly fathers can cause hurts, Pastor Allen offers insight on forgiveness, and how God can heal the sting of broken relationships and situations. He then offers a list of attitudes we can embrace to show we are maturing as God’s children, giving our best to Him.
