Devotional and instructional reading brings growth in one's personal Christian faith and lifestyle. Devotional reading is one of the key spiritual disciplines for those believers that desire to mature in their Christian faith and walk. Through devotional reading we have fellowship with the Lord himself and learn to live and walk the Christian life more fully. Devotional reading is more than casual reading or enjoyment; it is part of the process of learning to personally experience who God is, who my neighbor is, and how I impact others by my daily walk. Devotional reading is a good way to learn to live the Christian life before others and personally gain from the experiences of others……from our fathers, to be sure. From a systematic reading of Lessons from my Father, we learn the value of self acceptance, the importance of encouragement, the intimacy of relationships, the process of caring, and the unfolding of an active and vital faith. Devotional reading is a daily experience for the growing and maturing Believer. Lessons from my Father was written to assist you in your personal growth experience and walk with the Lord. Your family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, vendors, competitors, customers, clients, pew sitters, teachers, employers and business associates, to name a few, will all benefit from the impact these devotional readings will have on you. I pray that this devotional, Lessons from my Father, will help you have a worldwide impact on others for the cause of Christ In summary, devotional reading is to be inspirational, motivational, informational, and impactful. An old proverb put it this way, “Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at the present.” May you find such an experience as you read Lessons from my Fathers as a personal resource and spiritual guide book. Allan G. Hedberg, PhD Clinical Psychologist Fresno, California
