Father’s Day is an important date on the calendar for families, churches, communities, and our nation. It’s a day to celebrate dads, to affirm them for the strength they bring to their families, and to encourage them to be the fathers that their kids need them to be.
But it takes more than words of encouragement for men to become better dads. Even the best men need a plan, a blueprint, for becoming intentional fathers. So, in an effort to help our dads step up, we at Blueprint for Men, are providing you a wide variety of resources that can be put into action immediately.
Watch this 4 minute video and start taking action to become an intentional father today!
