“Devotions for Dads” was developed over several years as
a tool for personal reflection and family devotion by
Rick Wertz with the Faithful Fathering Initiative in
Texas as part of FFIT’s ongoing work with dads. The
original inspiration for the book was research published
by the Center for Alcohol and Substance Abuse showing
that “eating dinner together as a family” is the single
most effective way to keep kids off drugs. FFIT asked:
How much more could a weekly 30-minute family discussion
impact the kids, especially one referencing the word of
God and its practical application today? As he began to
formulate the Devotions, Rick introduced their use into
FFIT’s workshops, studies and retreats, and the
reception from the dads was very strong. He routinely
gets calls and emails from men sharing how they use the
Devotions beyond the original goal to enhance their:
- Personal devotion time;
- Devotion and discussion time with their wives; and
- Men’s small group meetings and studies.
Our prayer is that the Lord will encourage you through
the weekly devotions that make up “Devotions for Dads”
and equip you well through the resultant discussions to
grow as a faithful father, a dad that prioritizes
physical presence, is engaged emotionally and leads
spiritually by example.
