More Influences from the Pulpit

Statistics show fewer people are marrying, contributing to an increase in fatherless homes.

Historically, Americans relied on religious leaders to guide lifestyle choices and behavior. Some churches have recently reasserted themselves in the area of fatherhood, urging men to step up to fatherhood responsibilities. I saw an interesting YouTube video related to this trend. The video shows an interview with three people that came from homes with absent fathers. Each of the interviewees has made it their life’s goal to not allow this to happen to the children in their lives, whether they are biologically linked or not.
