The Proverbial Father

Proverbs define the true meaning of success, wealth, and joy. Proverbs is a dictionary whose substance remains unchanged over time and unaffected by modern fashion.

I am working on revising my little work on fatherhood, published eleven years ago. It’s a rewarding and humbling process, especially to see how my writing has evolved and how much more clearly I understand things now, having been a father for 17 years. I hope subscribers enjoy these revisions, which will eventually be re-published with additional chapters (including a chapter on the Singing Father). All paid subscribers will receive a PDF copy of the revised book once it is completed, and I hope to send out several physical copies as well.

If you would like to follow the progress, here is the revised introduction and the opening chapter, and Chapter Two on glad fathers and glad sons. For those who are not paid subscribers, I’d be happy to comp you for 90 days so you can follow along. Send me your email via Substack.

Chapter Three

“If we will but let our God and Father work His will with us, there can be no limit to His enlargement of our existence.”
― George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons: Series I, II, III

A Proverb a Day

Proverbs define the true meaning of success, wealth, and joy. Proverbs is a dictionary whose substance remains unchanged over time and unaffected by modern fashion. Proverbs is not just true for all times, it is at all times true. It is a marketplace of ideas— inerrant ideas. But it takes a wise father to make wise economic investments.
