Jeff Jerina • May 28, 2018

Learn how to be a dynamic dad living your life as a father the way God wants you to.   Dynamic Dads is an encouragement to other men to be the man God has called you to be – a servant leader.   Emulating your life after the ultimate model, Jesus Christ, laying your life down for your son or daughter like Jesus Christ sacrificed His life for us.   Learn healthy love and limits for your children as a dad.   Remember how God loves you as a father and how you as a Christian man can father your kids with a servant heart.  

Paul Pettit quick bio:

Author of several books on the topic of fatherhood, including his most recent book, Dynamic Dads, which offers practical advice on how busy dads can be winners at home and at work.   With a doctorate degree in theological studies , he works full time as a professor at Dallas Theological Seminary.  He and his wife have 5 children.

Key Points:

  • Learn how to maintain a healthy balance between love and limits with your kids
  • There is no such thing as a perfect dad but there can be effective and present dads.
  • You have to be willing to take and receive the advice and counsel from a brother in Christ or from your wife if you’re married
  • God is willing and able to father your kids in the gaps
  • As a dad you can’t father every one of your kids the same way as they have different personalities, etc.
  • Learn how to balance your schedule to spend quality intentional time with your son and / or daughter
  • It’s never too late to be a dynamic dad
  • Discipline yourself (the Bible says gird up your mind, be sober)
