Dad: Stop Beating Yourself Up!

This isn’t a typical Father’s Day message. It’s a confession. There was a time when I fathered from my wounds and I hurt the ones I loved most—my children. They didn’t need a drill sergeant; they needed a safe space to make mistakes and grow. In this video, I share how I had to face my past, own my mistakes and start healing the father in me, so I could stop wounding my children… and so can you! “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.” – Ephesians 6:4 Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro: A Father's Honest Reflection 00:46 - The Harsh Way I Fathered My Daughter 01:45 - When Intentions Hurt More Than They Help 02:46 - Breaking the Cycle Through Inner Work 03:46 - Healing Doesn’t Happen Overnight 04:46 - You’re Not to Blame for Everything 05:46 - The Real Reason We Lash Out 06:46 - Ephesians 6:4 – Don’t Provoke, Protect 07:31 - Becoming the Father Who Heals, Not Hurts
