Yet, in these pivotal moments, lies the opportunity to leave behind an enduring legacy of courage with full understanding of whom we surrender to our different challenges.

The relationship between a father and a son can be one of the most influential and meaningful bonds in a person's life. For many, the idea of a father-son relationship evokes thoughts of love, guidance, and support. However, for others, this relationship can be complicated, challenging, or even broken.
This is why having open and honest conversations about the father-son relationship on our podcast can be so important. By sharing experiences, insights, and wisdom, our podcast will provide a platform for fathers and sons to connect, learn from each other, and grow together.
One great example of a father-son relationship we consider when discussing topics is that of God the Father and Jesus. This relationship can serve as a model for fathers and sons everywhere, showcasing the power of unconditional love, sacrifice, and guidance.
For this season and on the podcast; We will be voicing TRUTH AND LIFE!

The Father had to send His one and only son to redeem us back to Himself, and the expression of that love with an action. He gave! He gave us his son, that through him we may be reconnected back, but the son had to experience the conditions of time on earth, to express an eternal love to us who never deserved it. A father’s time to love is the window through which a son can experience and understand the eternal love of God the Father. Listen to our latest episode to learn why LOVE is spelled as TIME, experienced on earth, but expressed as an eternal gift. Facebook: https://bit.ly/3w1AO0O

While God does not live a wastefully extravagant life, he does offer a lavish, extravagant, seemingly wasteful love to all of His children. Our Father doesn’t love us according to what we deserve, but what we need.
Have you understood that much of Christ’s mission was to set the record straight about the Father’s heart and therefore His love?
Blessings
What was the last thing that you said to your father/son?
Was it a command, an expression of disapproval, or a proclamation of your love and admiration?
What if those words were the last that they ever heard you speak?
I Pray that God gives you the wisdom to know which words your father/son needs to hear from you, and the courage to speak them.
Have a breath of fresh air, as you recommend The Fresh Fathers and Sons Air Podcast, to every boy and man near you.
Thank you so much for listening. God Bless You.
"Sometimes the purpose of prayer is to get us out of circumstances, but more often than not, the purpose of prayer is to get us through them."
Prayer should be the first thing you turn to, not a last-minute effort. We will face temptations, hurt, and disappointment, but we serve a great God that can provide strength and courage for you if you ask!
Please listen to our new episode, leave us a message and share this with other men around you. Thanks.
Blessings.
Our brother Joel Akanyetaba shared his Sonship journey with us during TDB’s 8th Sonship fellowship. He opened up about his relationship with his father, describing from his dad's own experiences of an absent father.
Joel's dad - Rev. Medad Birungi, is a special man who defied all odds to be present for his sons and avoid every mistake his father made while he grew up. He is a father of nations, who has raised so many men influencing nations for Christ.
Joel shares from the heart and expresses his gratitude for the great father he has! So patient, loving, spiritual, understanding, and never abandoned him when he was out making mistakes in his earlier stages of life.
Please listen, subscribe and share.
God bless you.
“You don’t raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you treat them like sons, they’ll turn out to be heroes, even if it’s just in your own eyes.” I have not heard and do not know of anyone in history who at the end of their life, lying on their deathbed, ever said the words, “I wish I’d spent more time in the office.” When we look back over our lives at what we value the most, the vast majority of us would point to our family. Whether we are fathers, plan to be fathers, or have a father, we all have a responsibility to our families. In this Episode 3 of our podcast, we talk about what the presence and provision of a father means to his sons. Thanks for listening, subscribing and spreading the Word!
A broken bone will often mend better with less pain than a broken heart or a crushed spirit caused by painful words.
There is no more obvious example than the angry and insensitive words than can come from the mouth of a father directed to his son.
The one common denominator of many of society’s problems - pornography, human trafficking, rape, murders, etc. all of them can be traced to abusive or absent fathers.
In this second episode of The FRESH Fathers and Sons AIR Podcast, we talk about how what a father says, determines a son’s way. Please listen, subscribe and share with the boys, men and fathers near you. God bless you
