About this episode

Dr. Kimo Walls delivers a Father's Day message using banyan trees as a metaphor for fatherhood.

Regional pastor Dr. Kimo Walls delivers this Father's Day message, drawing on the banyan trees of Hawaii as a picture of what a good father provides. He walks through five marks of fatherhood — stability, shade, fruit, roots, and spiritual influence beyond biology — weaving in stories of his own father, his grandchildren, and lessons learned the hard way. A reminder that legacy isn't found in a will, but in a life.
