Like Our Father is the latest title by author Christina Fox. In this book for parents, Fox helps gives readers a parenting perspective that is based on how God parents His children. I really enjoyed Fox’s previous book for moms, Idols of A Mother’s Heart, so I was excited to read this new release. Like Our Father is unique in the genre of Christian parenting books as it aids parents in specific areas by first looking at how God parents His children in those areas. This aspect of the book was really sweet because it led to each chapter focusing on different facets of God’s character. Even though the book’s focus is Christian parenting, this ultimately is a book about God’s character.
I appreciate how Christina writes in a way that is relatable and points parents to Christ. One of the chapters I most enjoyed was on patience, particularly because it is an area where I struggle. I was encouraged to learn that I’m not the only mom who struggles in that way. I love how Christina shared her own struggles and reminded me that the Holy Spirit is working in me as a parent to complete the work that God has begun in Christ. I was encouraged by Like Our Father and if you’re hoping to become more like God in your parenting or even hoping to increase your knowledge of God’s character, I highly recommend purchasing a copy.
I received Like Our Father compliments of Moody Publishers in exchange for my honest review.
