    Celebrating the Journey to Becoming a Dad

    Celebrating the Journey to Becoming a Dad

    After a successful football career in the NFL, Benjamin Waston has turned his attention to celebrating fatherhood by encouraging first-time dads to be the man their wife and children need them to be. Benjamin speaks into the crisis of fatherlessness and the necessity for men to step up and take responsibility. A father’s role is a cornerstone in the family, and men must be ready to be physically and emotionally present. Benjamin walks through practical steps that dads can follow during the pregnancy all the way to raising newborns. Parenting kids is a full time commitment and can be chaotic at times, but Benjamin reminds us that all children are a gift from God.

Blessed

I live in Pinjarra Western Australia and I love to listen to the variety of family stories which are it seems speaking to me as I can relate to so many. I have cried and laughed. What a blessing to have access to these podcasts to navigate ours and our family's way throughout our walks with God. I pop these on with my 3 year and 9 year and 16 year old in the car. Well the one’s appropriate at least and the kids you think aren’t listening are in fact are and ask me questions. I watched Greg Laurie’s sermon on Harvest plus on the 10 commandments and committed my life to God in my lounge room. Because I believe and through this I found his podcasts and now yours. So thank you for delivering such great testimonials from many different walks of life and also sharing your knowledge on scriptures. Today I was baptised and a lady who was just a stranger on the beach come up to me after and asked about it and our church. I hope she comes to our church so we can praise the lord for ever and ever. So what a blessed day I have had. I have learnt through these podcast's always be open to talking to other's about our Lord and saviour and let God take the lead in your life.

Thank you from Sydney, Australia

I live in Australia and listen to your podcasts most days! Focus on the family has given me a very clear understanding of the importance of marriage and raising my kids with a biblical foundation. Thank you all for what you’re doing. Lydia

Amazing Podcast.

My family and I live in remote Australia and don't have a radio station that plays these great programs. What a blessing it is to be able to listen and download these at a touch of a button.
