The role of "Dad" has changed so much over the years—from the times of side-by-side farming to the hands-off/purely breadwinner role and back again to a focus on dads having a key role in their children’s lives. It is nearly universally agreed upon that children need their dad in their lives in a meaningful way. If you’re a dad, one of the truly important things you can do for your children is to love and support them by sharing your love of Christ with them.
