by Timothy Z. Witmer

135 Pages

Husbands and Dads play a crucial role in the health and survival of the family. That’s why leadership expert Tim Witmer has written this course – to strengthen our efforts to lead well. He applies a biblical framework to the role of leadership in the home, showing how effective shepherding involves “knowing, leading, protecting and providing for your family”; all the while communicating solid principles with a down-to-earth, relatable tone.

Here’s What People Are Saying!

“With marriage and the family under present-day pressures, it takes a wise man to think and write well about being a husband and father under God. This book reveals Dr Witmer as just such a wise man, and makes his wisdom available to us all. Highly recommended.” James I. Packer (Vancouver, Canada)

“Another great study. As I noted in the answer book, I wish I had this book before I got married.”  Geoff – an ECS student

“Going through this I see that like a lot of things I was hot and cold, hit and miss. I got some things right and other things were so inept……I look at my family life and see it was like the rest of it – inconsistent. Truth is I really would like to have known all this before I got married or at least had kids.” Phil – an ECS student
