The Fatherhood of God: On Becoming a Mature Man

What does it mean to become a mature man? Growing older happens automatically. Growing into a mature man does not. It requires humility, discipline, courage, and the willingness to keep learning. It means recognizing our defenses, taking responsibility for our choices, listening carefully to others, and discovering when to speak, when to act, and when to wait for the prompting of the Holy Spirit. In The Fatherhood of God, Geoffrey Buckley explores what Scripture-and a lifetime of experience as a husband, father, therapist, and man of faith-can teach us about becoming mature men. From love and emotional awareness to brotherhood, adversity, discernment, and legacy, he invites readers to consider the kind of men they are becoming. At the center of that transformation is God the Father, whose love provides both our compass and our example.
