My Review-
This is a must read for anyone with a family, especially fathers. In this book, Andy teaches about the balance that we believe exists between work and home. Many workers today are working for some distant goal and putting their families on hold for the future - and they are missing out.
He talks about the principle that God called us to be part of our family and we can not be replaced in that unit, so we should not give priority to our job, where we can be replaced. When all is said and done, our family will still exist, or job will not.As a stay at home mom this book really spoke to me even if I dont work sometimes my priorities are on things like doing the laundry and such and as I was reading this it got me thinking.Overall good book for anyone who wants to make family a little better.
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
