Popis: | Sociological research has often evidenced significant outcomes associated with the experiences a child has of fatherhood. This article considers the importance of fatherhood from a Biblical/theological perspective. This importance is contrasted with the diminished and ambiguous valuation given to fathers in contemporary culture by examining what has happened with four predominant father roles. Implications for Christian educators are offered related to the shaping of young men in rites of passage, roles played by fathers today, and the meanings infused into rituals of the church. |
