Like Father, Like Son by Pete Alwinson

"We're [men] not only to wield the plow but to bear the sword...To be a man is to stand up and be counted when there is danger or other evil."
                                                                                    Richard Phillips

     Like Father Like Son by Pete Alwinson is written by a Pastor who sees men as Warriors.  A father can nurture, protect and prepare a young man for life's adventures and adversities, feed his spiritual thirst and develop a Christian theme or completely destroy.

     This book interested me because my husband didn't grow up with the most supportive father and found it difficult to raise our son.  We'd visited many marriage programs and family services that catered to both my husband and son as focus, but nothing every got through.  This book helped break the barrier.  It allowed him to see the changes within himself so he can then properly train our son in the manner he should go.

​     I also took the opportunity to see myself in this book, finding Christian attributes that could be applied towards myself and daughter.  

---

 There is nothing more important than carrying a strong relationship with God, thus allowing me to create strong and loving relationships with my family,  I found this book enlightening, funny and thought-provoking.  Not one time did I feel preached to and the references Mr. Alwinson used made the book easy to read and study.

​     Speaking of study, the questions provided allowed my husband and I to go deeper into our thoughts and prayers, I felt empowered in seeking His desires for us as parents and encouragers, more than our own wants.  I will pass this book to any of my friends and family who wish to read it, (and you KNOW how I am about loaning books) but it has to come back in goodt condition.  I really want to keep this one and go back periodically.  That's the definition of a good book. 

On to the next book and have a great day!📚
