Tools to Ready the Journey: A Father's Guide to a Faith-Filled Family

What are the basic tools that men of good will can firmly grasp for while intentionally building a faith foundation worthy of being reflected into the will of the family they are or will be leading through our physical world?

In our increasingly secularized culture, where situational truths cloud our perception of what is good or evil, men are losing their sense of the critically important role they play in the world. The failure of past generations not understanding the value of the gifts found in handing on their masculinity has lead tus o this impactful moment in time. Our result is that we have lost sight of the tools required to become a good man, husband, and father.

The tools for the journey, the masculine journey, are meant to be forged first in humility and fortitude. These two virtues can begin to help men form a deeper understanding of the power of their God-given gift of free will – their “willpower.” How well men can intentionally direct their “willpower” as they progress on their personal faith journeys will be determined by how well they come to understand and utilize all the available “tools” in their spiritual tool chest.

It’s one thing to know what a hammer is, and quite another to use it in a way that creates a solid structure that evokes beauty and strength. This book introduces men to the tools needed to build strong, faith-filled families in a world that maliciously and persistently attacks the value of men, their place in the family, and the foundation of faith that fortify them. A study guide follows each chapter with intent to assemble together men of all ages and denominations to engage in group discussion. A gathering where men of faith can share their personal experiences and life lessons, grow in faith together, and become more intentional in passing on their faith-filled gifts to each other, and to the families they are or will be leading. Intention that will avail peace of mind as a return on their effort, all while transform their own lives, the lives of their families, as they ultimately transform the world around them.
