  • Links to Fun and History - for Dad's Day!
    Like most people, I bet you thought Father's
    Day was started to sell greeting cards as a
    compliment to Mother's Day.

    According to the website I have listed below,
    Father's Day was created by Mrs. John B. Dodd
    of Washington. Apparently, she simply wanted
    a day to honor her father.

    It seems her dad was widowed when his wife,
    passed away during chilbirth and left him
    with 6 children to raise. When she became
    an adult, Mrs. Dodd realized the strength

  • Father's Day
    My father wanted a son. I understood that from the time I could intuit those secret messages that children know without knowing they know. My dad loved me. I also knew that. But, raising a daughter was foreign to him. Certainly, it wasnt his first choice. So, in the ways that a child tries to please a parent, I tried to please him, to fulfill and give him what he wished for. It worked up to a point. Although in later years he was proud of me, f ...

  • The Spirit of Father's Day

    Some time ago I received a gift from both of my children. It was spontaneous and had nothing to do with Fathers day. Yet, at the same time it had everything to do with Fathers day.

    My son, Kai, - he was 17 at the time - was attending a private boarding high school in Colorado. While we were talking on the phone he shared some wonderful news with me.

    Kai said, You know Dad, I am really happy with my life. I cant think of a thing that I would change about the way that I grew up, ...

  • The Importance of Honoring Mothers and Fathers

    With another year full of family events coming upon us, those of us that are lucky enough to have parents to honor will celebrate Mother's and Father's Day. We set aside one day a year for this, but it should be something we do everyday of the year, as commanded by God. There is a good reason for this, or else He wouldn't have commanded it!

    Exodus 20:12 "Honor thy father and mother that you may enjoy a long life in the land the Lord gives you." (Amplified)

    Note that this commandme ...

  • Celebrating Fathers

    On Father's Day, we celebrate the guys in our lives. Not just our dads and the fathers to our children, but all the men who have made a positive impact on a childs life.

    A number of recently published studies call attention to the effects of good fathering. Men who play an active role in their childrens lives stimulate all aspects of development: emotional, academic, behavioral, and social, even when those men dont live in the same home as their children.

    But we dont need a st ...

  • 10 Great Gift Ideas for Father's Day

    What do you get for the man who has always been there for you? You want it to be something special, something he hasn't gotten before, something that he will cherish. It cannot be the tired old gift of after shave lotion or soap on a rope. Not this year!

  • Father Knows Best

    A good strong example of a family leader would be Joshua in the Bible. He was a true spiritual leader and a strong man of God. He was not one to let the circumstances of the outside world convince him of defeat. Because of his strong leadership and convictions, everyone looked up to him as a father figure. Everyone but him and a few others were cut short and fell in the wilderness journey because they would not obey and follow God's instructions. Even today we still fall short of who we will ...

A recent survey, by RadioShack Canada, shows that while women want to keep Dad organized and on track this Father's Day, men are more interested in keeping him entertained.
