A Father's Covenant: 173 Promises for Consid. and Reflection

This book was a real gift to me as a woman. It was written/directed toward men, but what it did for me was to help me more clearly define the type of man I want to involve in my own and my children's lives. As a single mother of two sons (one 18 and the other 9), it offered me insight as to how to raise my sons--especially in the absence of a male role model. I want my boys to grow up to be enlightened, spiritual, loving, respectful, Godly men in their adult lives--to be successful in the relationships they form with adult friends, a potential mate, and in the relationships they form with their own children. This was a small, but very powerful book.

A Little Gem

This book has the ring of truth: simple, clear, truth. The book has a manly tone, so absent in our saccharine world. Any father who takes these promises to heart is going to become a better father and a better man. Instead of giving your old man another garish tie that'll hang forgotten in the closet, give him this little gem.

Insightful and touching!

This book is an ideal gift for any father. Easy reading, humorous, and insightful-- highly recommended!

Great gift for Father's Day

I enjoyed reading and re-reading this inspirational book of short thoughts for fathers. This book is a very easy read, its advice and insights make complete sense. This books supports the values that everyone, not just fathers, should ascribe to
