About this episode

Evangelist Jacob Holman examines biblical descriptions of what God wants fathers to be, based on 1 Thessalonians 2:9-12.

1 Thessalonians 2:9-12. Although the Bible doesn't give us a picture of an ideal father as it does an ideal mother (Proverbs 31), it does give us partial pictures of what God wants fathers to be. In this study, Evangelist Jacob Holman examines one of the descriptions that Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 2 to help men be godly fathers.
