DadAwesome DA378 | Shepherding Your Family Through Grief, Launching Disciples, and Finding Light in the Darkness (Brian Doyle)
In this episode, Brian Doyle shares what it was like to parent through the unimaginable. After losing his wife to cancer at age 54, Brian had to navigate his own grief while guiding his teenage and young adult kids through theirs. His story will challenge you to keep your eyes on the future, disciple your kids with purpose, and take initiative to invest in the dads around you.
TAKEAWAYS:
-
Instead of avoiding grief, learn to walk through it in a healthy way so your sorrow can eventually lead to joy.
-
If you want your kids to follow Christ, you have to show them what that looks like in your everyday life.
-
You’re not raising kids; you’re launching disciples.
-
No one else can do what God designed you as a man to do.
-
The time you invest in younger dads today can equip them for the challenges they’ll face decades from now.
