As we engage our sense of touch, we want to feel God’s love for us through our closest relationships. Mother’s Day is coming up, but we’re first taking a moment to talk about Dads. To help us more clearly see the role of a Father as God intended and to help us help the men in our lives feel more seen themselves, good friends you’ll recognize from previous episodes are back again - Blythe Daniel with her son, William Daniel and her mom, Helen McIntosh. What a joy to have three generations speaking on this very important topic supported by their book, I Love You Dad!: Words to Honor and Humor You.
