Thank you for exposing your heart on the loss of your father. We are all made of flesh and vulnerable. We need more people who are real who can empathise, and we can really only do that when we have gone through the situation.
Thank you for your vulnerability in sharing your story. I am aware that many ministers have traumatic or difficult father wounds. I have my own as well. I think your reflections following your story are important and powerful. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your openness Chris. My mother really never knew her blood father. She went into foster care and then was adopted, both with good and bad along with them. My father's mother died when he was very young.
Now today my daughter lives with me with her two children. My grandson has no idea who his father is and my granddaughter knows her father, but he only vidits once in awhile.
As for myself with six adult children a thought was challenging me as a father as I read your post.
Often a father is known by his children mainly from the days when they were young, not by what he himself is growing, becoming. While the father remembers not his children by what they were, but rather what they are becoming.
