In Hebrew the word "father" is translated to Abba and is only referenced three times in the New Testament (three times mentioned. once by Jesus, twice by Paul). The word Abba does not mean "daddy," it's less of a title and more of a description associated with honor and upmost respect- associated with "source" and "sustainer."

Then to be called a "father" is of high regard and great responsibility. When Father's are not present in the home it impacts the family, the community, and the nation. When fathers are not present in the home it ushers in a spirit of death.

This will be a three part discussion.
