It’s the time of year again when we think of our fathers and honor their influence in our lives. Those who have lost their fathers might feel sadness, but we can all remember what our fathers taught us. Join us for a closer look at daddy-daughter relationships.

We are joined by three of the co-authors of the new book, Daddy Daughter Love Stories: Celebrating African American Fathers. Join us for this inspiring and enlightening conversation with Denise Grant, Kimberly Varner, and Quand Robinson Thomas. 

Show Highlights:

• How the book idea came to Denise after her father passed away
• How the book concept is for each of the seven co-authors to share memories of their fathers and lessons learned from their fathers, highlighting some of the characteristics of God that are represented by fathers
• How Quand contributed to the book as a 100% “Daddy’s Girl” to find healing through the pain of losing her father
• How Kim views the expectations that her father placed on her as she grew up
• The importance of the relationship between a Black father and his daughter
• How we can feel the presence of our fathers who have passed on
• How writing the book brought up memories
• Why the challenge for Kim was in writing and sharing about her father’s frail moments due to illness
• How a relationship with a father can still continue when he isn’t physically present any longer
• How Denise recommends bringing the Heavenly Father into lives when a physical father isn’t present
• How the ladies remember and pay tribute to their fathers for Father’s Day
