Beyond the Letter

What will your kids remember about you when they’re grown?In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Adam and Will have an unexpectedly personal conversation about fatherhood, work, ministry, and the pressure of trying to build something meaningful without missing your children along the way.They share stories about their own fathers, the moments from childhood they still carry today, and how those experiences are shaping the way they raise their own kids.From learning the difference between simply being present and being an intentional father, to making sure there is still something left in the tank when you get home, this conversation is a reminder that success outside the home means very little if your family only gets what is left of you.They also talk about regret, repairing relationships with your parents, and why even fathers who feel like they missed important years with their children can still rebuild something meaningful.Because one day your kids will grow up.The question is: when they look back, will they remember that Dad wanted to be there?--Do you struggle with obedience to God?Visit Faith at the Table to get your free resource today!https://tablefaith.com/--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Will Chung https://www.instagram.com/willkchung/--Join our study on the book of Acts on our Bible Club Podcast!https://www.youtube.com/@bibleclubpodcast--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?
