Honor Thy Grandparent: How to Embrace the Wisdom of Elders to Raise the Youth

Matthew 6:3: A New Perspective for Fathers Seeking Approval and Praise

Ep. 28 Unravel the mysterious phrase "Never Let Your Left Hand Know What Your Right Hand Is Doing." From parenting to interpersonal dynamics, we'll discuss how it encourages trust, open communication, and a balance between individual autonomy and shared responsibilities. Discover the origins of this phrase, rooted in the biblical teachings of the Gospel of Matthew (6:3), where Jesus advises doing acts of charity in secret. We'll delve into its cultural interpretations, examining its relevance in various contexts and its broader meaning over time. In the realm of fatherhood and relationships, we'll explore how this principle emphasizes humility, selflessness, and the significance of acting with sincerity.   Connect with Fatha Torch:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fatha_torch/@FathaTorch [https://www.instagram.com/fatha_torch/] Website: https://www.fathatorch.com/www.fathatorch.com [https://www.fathatorch.com/]  ABIMILECHH FOUNDATION -Local Programs for Fathers [https://www.abimilechh.org/] Want to be a sponsor or guest on the podcast?

Abolish Fear-Based Assumptions

Ep 9 Fear-based assumptions can lead to a parent-child relationship of pain, drama and heartache for all involved. As fathers we often lash out at our kids in order to protect them from the unknown, or to prevent them from getting involved with something that we don't understand but are afraid to admit it. In this episode let's explore another way to approach fatherhood in the New Year 1. What does it mean for a father to actively listen to his children and not assume he knows everything? 2. How can fathers instill fear of God and not fear of the world in their daughters? 3. What is the importance of self-control, communication, and emotional connection in fatherhood? As a father of nine, I have come to understand that assumptions about my children, myself, my family, and even my manhood can lead to pain, drama and headaches. I know that I cannot assume that one conversation is enough to teach my children, and I must actively listen and show them love and support. I must also be mindful that although I have experience, it does not make me an expert on my children's lives. I must be adaptable and have self-control, knowing that what I say will affect my children. I strive to speak life, prosperity, liberty, and innate spirit, teaching my children to be secure in themselves, and to be prepared and have the tools needed to protect themselves.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Stop Being Your Child’s Friend, Start Being Their Leader

Ep. 17 This episode is a must-listen for parents seeking guidance on discipline and communication with their children. In today's society, many parents walk around on eggshells, and it seems like fathers have no authority when it comes to raising the kids. As an advocate for traditional fatherhood, I have dedicated myself to helping other parents like you reclaim your power and raise kids who respect and obey you.  It's important to establish boundaries and respect, rather than trying to be your child's friend. Issues of teen mental health issues, addiction, and other taboo subjects must be address properly. By advocating for open communication and a supportive community, I believe we can help our children become confident, successful adults.  SPONSORED BY CREATE A PIZZA: home of the FATHA TORCH Lunch Special Try the Vegan Meatball Pizza with Sexy Cheese and a Drink for only $5.99 766 Monroe Ave, Rochester, NY Order Ahead at www.createapizza585.com [http://www.createapizza585.com/]   Connect with Fatha Torch:  Instagram: @FathaTorch [https://www.instagram.com/fatha_torch/]  Website: www.fathatorch.com [https://www.fathatorch.com]  ABIMILECHH FOUNDATION -Local Programs for Fathers [https://www.abimilechh.org/] Loved this episode?
