Fatherhood is one of the most profound roles a man can take on, but what does it truly mean to provide, preside, and protect? How does being a father give us a glimpse into the divine nature of God? In what ways does the modern world challenge or distort the role of fathers, and how can men rise to meet this sacred calling? If God asks us to address Him as “Father,” what does that reveal about His relationship with us? In this episode, we dive deep into these questions and explore the weight, beauty, and responsibility of fatherhood.

Im so excited for this!
First one here!
Firrrrst
I gave my youngest daughter her first blessing in sacrament today
I have 11 days as a father and it is a blessing and a huge responsability
I love this topic! My daughter is expecting our first grandbaby in March, and I’m grateful she’s been sealed in the Temple of the Lord to a righteous patriarch. I love your channel!
A surgeon can make an incision that heals quickly because his scalpel is sharp. He doesn’t need to exert a lot of pressure to cut deep. Too often we equate sharpness with harshness, which it is not. Words can be sharp even when whispered. Next time you are tempted to be harsh, even if you THINK it is righteous anger, ask yourself – am I operating with a dull steak knife or a scalpel?
The buck stops with me amen and stay safe, Brother!
Great chat!
Listening to this in the NICU
So good. Men are kind of falling behind in life and the church and I have had strong feelings that, if we better understood what it is to preside, then more of us wouldn’t disengage or fall prey to nihilism. More of us would see why the church and our families still need us for things that only we can uniquely do. BUT I haven’t had a good grasp on what it means to preside. This helps a lot. Thank you.
I love this channel
As the mother of a son, I wish we had more voices, examples and encouragement like this for him to emmulate. I'm divorced from his abusive father who he no longer as a relationship with. I teach him every chance I get how to one day be a good husband and farher, and I try to point him to good role models. But nothing I can do, except pray his relationship with his Heavenly Father grows stronger every day, will make up for a great father in the home. They are priceless.
Righteous dominion… it's not just for men.
Well done! I especially appreciate the reference to D&C 121. Semper Fi!
I had a strong prompting that I needed to leave my Job and come home to be with my children. I then had a strong prompting not to think about another job until our youngest is in 6th grade. I also got in the same prompting to not continue my education until that time as well.
When I started thinking about it more, i realized that my oldest will be a senior in high school when my youngest is in 6th grade.
My kids need me home, and I need to let my husband provide.
I do run a small massage business in our home, and I am a substitute teacher to help bring in some extra income.
Every little bit helps.
This is a great time and topic. I read a great book on the subject, I think the title was Man of Steal and Man of Velvet. Alot of good stuff here. Thanks, and stay safe, brothers.
I was not a good father. I wish I had heard and demonstrated this 40 years ago. Thank you for sharing this!
This was great. Thank you for sharing this.
From my Marriage and Family Relations class at BYU: “sharpness” means “exactness”. Meaning to address the issue or the behavior without making broad statements about character or worth of their eternal soul. Research shows that verbal abuse is more damaging than physical abuse. And neither is okay to ANY degree. And as the scripture says, show forth an increase of love!!!
Studies have shown that a lot of our views of God comes from our relationship with our Father. If he is authoritarian you will view God as authoritarian and so on. A great parenting tool that has helped me as a father is to study the scriptures to see how God interacts with His children. For example, you could say Nephi and his brothers failed two times to get the plates or you can see it as God gave Laban two chances to give them up willingly knowing what would happen if he didn't. That's a God of mercy and justice to me.
I am a woman, but I understand exactly where your heart is. In today's society, women are mocked if not working, and men look for working women to marry. Even in LDS society where this truth is taught with boldness, fear rules. Thank you.
At 38 still a future father.
Amazing. Thank you.
Bro video looks like Utah state dorms lol bruh make ur bed in that cell lol jk
Thank you. My soul needed some lifting. God is good.
My wife has been starting to preach to our kids about the evils of patriarchy and it hurt. It's been challenging teaching my kids how to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ when their mother does not believe God exists and she has no intention of getting to know Him. I am painted as the enemy by my wife and our kids believe her. They are oblivious to the peace I am earnestly seeking to bring to our home. I am mortal and make mistakes regularly which adds to them trying to tune me out. I do not want my kids to be confused nor do I want them to think ill of their mother. In seeking guidance from God the answer I've felt is to not retaliate and never give up trying to teach them about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
This was much needed 🙏🏼
Yes! I am a wife and mother and I have been thinking so often lately about how vital it is that my husband preside in our home, even though I’ve struggled to figure out what that means! I need him to keep us on track spiritually, which he does amazingly. I need to express to him more often how grateful I am for the way he presides in our home.
Amen brotha
Fantastic. I love that you presented this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! 🎉❤
At 22:37 you quote "sharpness". If you look up the word in Webster's 1828 dictionary, which comes from JS's time. Sharpness=clarity. Reprove with clarity, is how we would say it today. Hope your finances come together for you. Hope-a-hope!
Thank you.
Great video as always! My wife and I are expecting our first child in July, and it’s been good to start shifting my mindset into father mode!
I was Baptized myself on December 21st and on February 8th ill be baptizing my oldest daughter into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints as well!
They see us and follow our examples
