Emphasis Preaching Journal

A friend, who was about to become a father, asked me about the relationship I had with my father when I was growing up. My friend sensed that my relationship with my dad was a good one, and that I regarded my dad as a good father. This friend of mine, however, had grown up without a father, and so as he anticipated becoming a father himself, he found that he was without a good role model. He hoped to be able to borrow one from me.
