The Father Factor the Key the World Forgot about

From Australia to Angola, Britain to Belize, Canada to Cambodia, study after study has shown that fatherlessness is a global crisis that carries damaging ramifications. This book espouses the intriguing biblical story of the Prodigal Son with significant details and practical applications. It sheds light on the much needed understanding of roles a father plays. Today as society hails the tremendous efforts of single mothers and motherhood (and rightly so), efforts of single-fathers and fatherhood are rarely spoken about. The author explores the story in contemporary times, and also looks at the Millennials not in terms of their stubbornness or stigmatization but of who they are, what they possess, and what they have inherited. When properly nurtured, directed, welcomed, and appreciated with unconditional love and responsible freedom, they will be a tremendous blessing to the family, the church and society by reversing the pessimism associated with fatherhood.
