What Does the Bible Say About A Fathers Role #2

Arnie and Fred continue their discussion of a father's role by noting that a father is required by God to correct his children. Solomon has a good bit to say about this and we look at several of his Proverbs teaching this. Paul and the Hebrew writer also teach us about this concept. Encouragement of children is also in the mix, and we discuss this. The father's responsibility as head or leader of the family is an important role for him. We examine this and talk about why God would require this of fathers and the result if this responsibility is not exercised. Spiritual guidance is another important aspect of the father's role, and we note what the Bible says about this. We conclude by discussing the father's responsibility to provide the necessities of life for his family. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion.
