It analyzes how fatherlessness affects multiple generations andpresents a Christ-focused approach to healing, liberation, and reestablishingidentity. Marshall merges theological insights with practical ministry strategies,incorporating data from a survey of participants in the El Paso region to examinethe emotional, spiritual, and cultural effects of lacking a father.Written from the perspective of a pastor, husband, father, and son, The Theologyof Sonship serves as both a theological exploration and a pastoral call.
