Decent

This podcast is decent if you’re a father within the Christian faith. I am not religious, which means I seek answers and ideas that go further than blind faith in God. As someone in the MFT field, I found the concepts and ideas to be fairly basic, but for your average father, the camaraderie of a group of average American fathers could be the very support you need.
