AN HONEST & FOUNDATIONAL LOOK AT FATHERING IN ASIAN SOCIETIES

Brothers, we hear you. Fathering is hard work, but you’re willing to get your hands dirty. You want to be more involved with your kids, but your work schedule is unforgiving. 

Parenting theories abound, but who has the time to read them all?

The Modern-Day Dad takes an honest and foundational look at fathering in Asian societies. Passionately written by Parcsen Loke, who has influenced many Singaporean fathers through coaching, training, and counselling, it is a compelling read for modern dads of all ages. Backed up by research and interspersed with Parcsen’s personal stories, you’ll find tips to father effectively, despite the many roles you juggle as a 21st-century dad.

No book ever written has been a better or more practical guide than Proverbs for helping fathers guide their children toward right choices and away from wrong ones. The advice of wise King Solomon remains invaluable for today’s dads struggling with the pressures of home and career responsibilities, travel, broken families, and other realities of modern life. With this book, Pastor James Merritt encourages dads to pass along to their children God’s timeless wisdom found in Proverbs.

Through his personable and engaging style, he reveals important life principles on such key topics as - finances - the power of words - sexuality - work - faith - friendships. Take your role as leader in your home seriously. Embrace your high calling to teach godly wisdom to your children in today's increasingly secular world!

There is a path leading to authentic manhood, cut by men who have gone before us, sons following in the footsteps of their fathers, generation after generation. There are perils along the trail, even disasters - all the more reason to rely on the guidance of a Father who has gone before.

But in an age when true fathers are in short supply, how do you find the path to manhood? How do you steer clear of the dangers?

John Eldredge calls men back to a simple and reassuring truth: God is our Father. In life's trials and triumphs, God is initiating boys and men through the stages of manhood from Beloved Son to Cowboy to Warrior to Lover to Sage.

This book maps out the path of manhood - not more rules, not another list of principles, not formualas, but a sure path men have followed for centuries beoffore

THE EXPECTANT FATHER’S GUIDE TO SURVIVING PREGNANCY

Pregnancy books for couples abound, but You Got This, Dad is just for guys. Aaron Sharp, a dad of four, draws from his experiences to help husbands, especially first-time dads, navigate the amazing, uncertain, and sometimes scary process of pregnancy and childbirth.

With self-deprecating honesty, plenty of humor, and amusing asides from his lovely wife, Elaina, Aaron steers soon-to-be dads through the complex events and emotions surrounding pregnancy. From finding out their spouse is expecting, to bringing baby home, husbands will be equipped to handle whatever the next nine months (or their wife) throws at them.

Guys will receive not only practical guidance but also a better appreciation for God’s miraculous gift of a new life to care for. When they know what to expect and how to support their wife, new dads will gain confidence and learn to laugh at their foibles. Give this guide to an expecting father with a reassuring smile and remind him, “You got this.”

NO MAN SUCCEEDS BY ACCIDENT. YOU NEED A PLAN. THIS IS THE PLAN.

No man fails on purpose. Quite the opposite. When our feet hit the floor every morning, we're looking for a win. We all want to be the heroes of our own story. But these are turbulent times to be a man.

It's increasingly difficult to juggle all the responsibilities we face as men, husbands, fathers, friends, workers, businessmen, churchmen, & citizens. Patrick Morley (author of bestseller The Man in the Mirror) offers a game plan with 10 key principles that will empower you to get the win you're looking for. The Christian Man is filled with powerful stories and refreshingly practical answers to questions like: 

• How can I lead a more balanced life?
• How can I have a deeper walk with God?
• What makes a great husband?
• How can I become a dad who makes a difference?
• How should I think about my work?
• What's the right way to deal with lust?

By the end of this must-read book, you will know how to intentionally release the power of God on the issues that matter most to you. You'll be able to walk with confidence in the one identity that matters most: The Christian Man.

Become the Dad Your Kids Need

The rewards of being a brave dad are great. But no guts, no glory. First you have to be willing to follow God's job description for dads as given in the Bible.

In Brave Dad you'll receive guidance on...

• the starting point of being a godly dad — loving your wife
• how to raise children who desire to follow God
• ways to lovingly discipline kids & encourage obedience
• traps to avoid in the course of parenting
• the power of a dad's example to shape children for life

When you commit yourself to being a brave dad, God will help you every step of the way. There is no surer path to a lifetime of family blessings!

Some of the most noted, celebrated and godly men in the Bible made some very big mistakes when it came to raising their children. Roland Warren, former President of the National Fatherhood Initiative, calls these errors “bad dad” mistakes. Warren examines these mistakes, brings them into a contemporary setting and gives today’s dads much needed advice on how to avoid them. Moreover, should a dad unfortunately make some of these common mistakes, this book will give him practical advice and an easy-to-follow roadmap to help him repair his relationships with his children before it’s too late.

As dads study the examples of the fatherhood legacies of men like Abraham, David and Eli, men who loved God deeply, they will learn from their missteps. More importantly, this book can serve as a clarion call for men to take action now to be the fathers that God designed them to be.

Each chapter includes Reflection, Correction and Connection sections at the end to help dads easily apply what they have read, as well as a “Good Dad Promise” to pave the way for future good parenting decisions.

Never underestimate your power as a father. You undoubtedly will influence and shape future generations.

Every father has a hidden desire for his children - to see them surpass him. To help him achieve this, Ken Canfield offers a three-part plan. First, a dad should examine his own heart. Next, he should take steps to improve the way he connects with his children. Lastly, he should take a longer range view and plan specifically for a lifetime of involved fathering.

Canfield's plan addresses a father's past -- a father should resolve his relationship with his own father in order to effectively build a relationship with his children. Canfield also explains how to build the four "walls" or dimensions, of fathering: involvement, awareness, consistency, and nurturing. He then supplies a plan for the future. From being a new father to being a grandfather, dads face challenges at each stage of their life.

With the long-range perspective this book provides, fathers can anticipate and prepare for the changing situations they'll face. Based on years of careful research involving thousands of fathers, this book is a solid reference tool for dads.

Derek Prince has often stated that absent or uninvolved males are the #1 problem in society, and his insight into the topic of husbands & fathers fulfilling their roles has been quoted by many highly regarded leaders.

In Husbands and Fathers, Prince, the father of twelve adopted children, sets forth the biblical foundation for men to function -- and excel -- in their most vital roles. Men seeking wise counsel on leading their families, as well as women longing for the men in their lives to grow in godly leadership, will find priceless insight and clear instruction in these pages. No matter where men are in their journeys as husbands and fathers, Prince explains exactly what it takes to bless those closest to them.
