Bad Dads of the Bible

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. Bad Dads of the Bible 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.
