There have been too many negative impacts on our culture in what has been called the \u201cFatherless Generation\u201d because so many dads have abandoned their families and kids have been raised without a dad in their lives.\u00a0 But it seems like these days, our society is embracing the idea of broken families as a positive.\u00a0 It\u2019s like they have decided that the traditional family is not such a good thing\u2014that there are no real benefits to having a mom and a dad who get married have kids and raise a family together.\u00a0 But the truth is that our society has suffered because of the lack of responsibility of so many fathers.\u00a0 And our culture has discounted the impact that good, godly fathers can have on, not only in their own families, but on society as a whole.\u00a0 A Godly dad inspires courage, compassion, morality, and most important of all soul-saving faith in his progeny.\u00a0 And if you multiply those qualities across a society of children you wind up with a courageous, compassionate, moral, and faithful generation, which benefits society with people who increase kindness, hard work, prosperity, and prayer.\u00a0 And when that happens, the nation and the world becomes a better place to live\u2014not to mention a lot more people who enjoy a living relationship with the Lord.<\/p>\n
