As someone who is passionate for men in the context of mothers, fathers and children, I looked through my rather large collection of books about men and fatherhood. These books have different reasons for being on my top ten list, but they are all classics.
The New Year brings new beginnings. As we head into 2026, the heart of Dads4Kids continues to beat strong with fresh energy and new opportunities.
Nathaniel Marsh reflects on 21.5 years of marriage, the beauty of shared hands and tender moments, and the enduring power of love inspired by family and faith.
These days, I’m no longer behind the camera, but the message of Dads4Kids remains constant: Our mission is to encourage dads and help them be the best they can be for their children.
Danny Abdallah could have easily smashed the man who killed his children, as at one stage he was the Australian kickboxing champion. He recently met the man in the jail where he is serving his sentence to tell him personally of his forgiveness.
Stories are even more important to children, especially when seen with Dad. There are some good family-friendly movies out at the moment. Let me give you my top three choices.
In late February 2025, Tom MacDonald released "Man in the Sky", a poignant, country-tinged ballad accompanied by a farm animal-themed music video. His poetic lyrics have a child-like innocence, yet pose some of life’s biggest questions.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s story is compelling and illuminates many important issues for us today. Hopefully, like me, you’ll be encouraged and spurred on in your fatherhood while watching this film. Stand strong, be a guide to others, protect, and lead your family in love.
My younger brother died in a car accident in Tasmania on 16 January 2025, not too far from where he lived. Cameron left a living legacy displayed in his only daughter, grandchildren, nephews and nieces.
If you can, share some memorable stories with your own children. Jodi and I often share memorable stories from our childhoods, especially those involving extended family members.
