Dad Devotionals: Advice for Christian Fathers, Husbands and Men of Faith

In this episode, Dave sets the stage for a book study series on Raising Them Right: A Saint’s Advice on Raising Children. The book is based on the writings of Saint Theophan the Recluse. It offers both practical and spiritual insight into a variety of areas of concern to parents, such as baptism, guiding the spiritual and psychological development of children through their teens, and preserving grace in a child's life.

Welcome to Fridays with Abbot Tryphon presented by the Dad Devotionals Network. In this episode, Abbot Tryphon encourages us to move beyond isolation and become a full part of the our church.

Greg McEvoy joins Dave on the show to discuss how dads can be more intentional with their children. Greg offers insight into his model that helps Christian men get unstuck and live a deeper life. For Greg, it is imperative that men learn to navigate their emotions as part of their daily interactions with their wives and kids. Instead of getting stuck in "paralysis by perfection," Greg calls each of us to take steps in faith as we trust in God's divine plan.
