Summary: I once heard the story of a teacher who called the home of a student that had not come to school that day and said, “Is it true Billy can’t come to class today because of a cold?” On the other end of the line, a young voice replied, “Yes...” “To whom am I speaking?” the teacher asked. The same voice answered, “This is my father.” Sunday is Father’s Day, which will give occasion for many of us to celebrate, honor, and perhaps even impersonate our dads. But for some of us, Father’s Day also provokes complicated or even negative emotions. How do we see our dads well? And how does this impact the way we love our heavenly Father? As we continue in the second week of our Journey Home series from John 14-15, we will see Jesus radically reshape the way most of us view fatherhood. But these few, simple statements contain words we all need to hear because they profoundly impact the way we know God as Father. Downloads
