Powerful Fathers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781546748038)

Powerful Fathers is a hilarious but ultimately serious book by a man who is a successful father, a veteran pastor, and a colorful writer and news reporter. Using laugh-out-loud humor, he moves from funny true stories to serious issues. Then he gets practical. He says we've raised a generation of fatherless kids. They are smother-loved but untrained, like modern orphans of the state except they are never deprived. Disrespectful, self-centered, and irresponsible, these kids are the result of abandonment by fathers amidst America's disintegrating families. Yet they are the future leaders of America. This is trouble with a capital "T."

Fatherless boys often struggle in our feminized public schools where the only value enforced is no bullying, but sullen kids will bully their teachers into early retirement. What's the answer?

Real men need to quit rebelling against their duty, step up to their responsibility, and learn how to become effective fathers. What do men need to know? Where do we turn for guidance? Using his colorful conversational writing skills, Ron tells side-splitting stories from his own life. The topic turns serious when he begins commenting on America's fatherless kids - a topic he's reported on in newspapers and radio for decades. Then he puts on his teacher's hat and explains practical steps men, truths we men need to know. No subject is off-limits! Sex, marriage, gender, and parenting. Ancient wisdom shows us how to raise confident kids and create happy homes. It works!

Do children deserve a daddy in the home? What is the role of a man? Single moms are heroic, but they're burned out. The author shows us the answer. It lies in learning the ways that are taught in the Bible but often neglected, even in modern churches. There is no better alternative.

An unexpected bonus? The author says, "Experience tells us your wife will appreciate you more and have time and energy to be a generous lover if you will become the kind of father your kids deserve."
