In this episode, Rev. Ryan French reflects on the joys and challenges of fatherhood and the importance of the role of fathers in society. He emphasizes the value of the family unit and the impact it has on the church and communities. Rev. French encourages fathers to break the cycle of generational curses and be examples of love, stability, and faithfulness. He also discusses the difference between happiness and joy, and how prioritizing the safety and well-being of our children is more important than their immediate happiness. Rev. French reminds parents to teach their children to prioritize the things of God and not to prioritize worldly achievements. In this conversation, Rev. Ryan French shares four lessons he has learned from fatherhood. First, he emphasizes that the safety of our soul is more important than our happiness. Second, he discusses the importance of boundaries, explaining that they don't hurt us but actually help us. Third, he highlights the unfairness of life and encourages listeners to depend on God rather than expecting fairness from people or circumstances. Finally, he emphasizes the boundless love of our Heavenly Father and encourages listeners to approach God with the boldness of a child.
