Synopsis

A personal story of learning to trust our heavenly Father when you feel your earthly father has let you down.

Blair Linne’s personal story of growing up without a father at home reflects the experiences of millions. She weaves her personal story with thoughtful theological reflection, inviting readers to learn from God what "father" really means and to trust him, even if they feel their earthly father has let them down. 

This book will help readers to shift their eyes from what they do not have in their earthly fathers (who, whether present or absent, loving or the opposite, can never be perfect) to what they do have in their eternal Father, who will never disappoint, reject or abandon them. 

Readers will see that the gospel promises not just forgiveness but also a place in God’s family, experienced in a local church, where they can enjoy the fullness of his fatherly joy, care, wisdom, provision, protection and security. 

Also includes a chapter by Blair’s husband, the Christian hip-hop artist Shai, on his own story of fatherlessness and faith.

Everyone should read this. Not only does it walk you through how to approach fatherlessness with the Gospel, but it more importantly teaches you about God’s Fatherly role he holds in our lives. Read it and you will learn so much.......more

Blair Linne gives a transformational take on how God tangibly Fathers the fatherless. How he Fathers us all through his word and the church. There is richness in salvation as we are added into a new family. We indeed are children of God with brothers and sisters, spiritual mothers and FATHERS who ca......more

Goodreads review by Brock

There’s some really good stuff here, but also a lot of stuff that you frequently hear on this topic. The most impactful parts come from hearing Blair and Shai’s stories and how God used and is using them despite their painful past and the beautiful role the church, as an out working of God’s grace,......more

Beautifully written and filled with so much hope for the brokenness many face this side of heaven. Sweet reflections on the fatherhood of God and the gift of his church. Loved this read!......more
