Ever wonder why God – the creator of the universe, the maker of heaven and earth – revealed Himself as our Father? What did He want us to understand about His role in our lives, and about what makes a good father? How can a biblical perspective help us to come to terms with our own feelings about the father who raised us or who did not live up to our expectations? Whatever our experience, past or present, good or bad, it’s worth considering what God has to say about the matter.
