Fathers Who Fight

Rob and Lloyd take the opportunity to review a few talks from the April 2021 general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, specifically parts that applied to fathers and things we can do to become better fathers. There were definitely some Eternal Warrior principles we heard over the pulpit! The talks they review are from Elder Thierry K. Mutombo, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, Pres. Russell M. Nelson, and Sis. Joy D. Jones.

For men, feelings are not always fun to discuss, so Rob and Lloyd teach about a tool we fathers--and anyone--can use to help us recognize and deal with our feelings in an appropriate, healthy way. They also talk about how using this tool can help in recognizing Satan's lies and defeating them.

The quote they use from Elder Bednar in this episode can be found in the talk "Quick to Observe."

If you feel you and/or your family could use some personalized help in perfecting how to apply these principles please click here.

Rob and Lloyd talk with Kellie Webster, mentor and author of the children's books "Rebecca's Trick" and "Alexander's Trick". She talks about how the books came to be and the importance of teaching our children and grandchildren which voices we can and cannot trust. She testifies that some of the voices we can trust come in the form of ancestors who act as guardian angels for us.

You can pick up Kellie's books and other valuable materials from Life Changing Services here.

Rob is solo for this episode and shares an experience he and his wife recently had with his son that made him rethink where the focus should be when teaching his children. Using teachings of leaders and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Rob talks about how we can become better teachers of our children and hopefully influence them to change behaviors that may need changing. He uses quotes from the following talks/articles:

Little Children

The Home: The School of Life

Our Identity and Our Destiny

The Calling I Didn't Know I Had

Rob and Lloyd interview Jeremy, a courageous father who took the steps to rid his life of pornography. He has been free of it for over a year now and he talks about how he has done it, what he has learned in the process, and how his life has improved thanks to his success and efforts--and Heavenly Father's help.

If you are a father enmeshed in the vicious web of pornography addiction, or know someone who is, please consider the Men of Moroni program, which has helped many men learn Eternal Warrior principles to help them become free.

Thank you for listening. Email us at [email protected] for questions or comments. We also appreciate positive ratings and reviews and sharing the podcast with others who could benefit.

Maurice Harker, founder of Life Changing Services joins Rob and Lloyd this week for the first part of their discussion on self-mastery and how to apply gospel principles to life and parenting so you can become an eternal warrior fighting for the good of your family. Maurice gives some good parenting "hacks," including the Positive Assumption Technique.

Maurice is the author of "Like Dragons Did They Fight," a veritable handbook for spiritual and scientific principles to help with self-mastery of any kind, including sexual self-mastery. Maurice can also be heard on his podcast, "Memoirs of an LDS Therapist."

The highest form of love is charity, and Rob and Lloyd explain what charity means to them, share experiences with charity, and talk about how important it is to develop it as a husband and father. To strengthen their points they use a few talks from general authorities past and present from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including this one from Elder Jeffrey R. Holland and this one from Elder Hartman Rector Jr.

If you could use some help strengthening or repairing your marriage, Life Changing Services has several powerful resources to help with that, namely the Lazarus Lectures, and online Marriage Repair Workshops.

Love is always important to give, not just around Valentine's Day. Rob and Lloyd talk about the importance of showing love to the women who make us fathers--our wives. They are our most essential teammates.

If you currently happen to be in a marriage that is less than ideal, Life Changing Services can help. You can work together through the Lazarus Lectures, or individually in marriage repair workshops for men and women.

Rob and Lloyd discuss some things a father can do--and things he shouldn't do--to earn the respect of those most important to him: his wife and children. We rely heavily on this talk from Bishop H. Burke Peterson, former counselor in the Presiding Bishopric of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We also bring up this talk from Elder Jeffrey R. Holland about the quest for perfection. And here is the full quote we used toward the beginning of the episode.
