The Forge
Inspired by "The Forge", communities centred on food, fun and faith can shape boys into godly men, with the life-changing power of discipleship and intentional mentoring.
Lest We Forget
Since 1915, over 1.5 million brave Australians and New Zealanders, the great majority of them men, have served in their respective armed forces across major conflicts and peacekeeping operations. No matter how you commemorate ANZAC Day, it only matters that you do. Lest we forget.
Show Me The Father
The Kendrick Brothers’ 2021 documentary "Show Me The Father" is well worth watching. Directed by Rick Altizer, it beautifully weaves together a series of stories highlighting the importance of fatherhood.
Joyeux Noël (Merry Christmas)
Joyeux Noël (Merry Christmas) tells the incredible true-life story of the spontaneous Christmas Eve truce declared by Scottish, French and German troops during World War I. Like the story of Joyeux Noël, the message of Christmas is one of faith, hope, and ultimately love.

Bonhoeffer: Encouragement for Dads

The Greatest Poem of All Time on Manhood, and the Power of Family
The "Unsung Hero" movie is a true story about a courageous Australian father who eventually found the courage to love his family unconditionally. That is why I want to encourage you, one more time, to go and see it. You will never regret the experience.
Our Family Happy Place
If you can, work towards creating a happy place for your family. Discuss ideas, then start planning and working towards it. Your family happy place could be a screen-free family meal together, a fun bicycle or scooter adventure, or a fancy picnic at your local park.
Why Do They Call It Good Friday?
At Dads4Kids, we’re all about inspiring fathers, but easily, the best way to be inspired is by following Jesus and making him the Lord (King) of your life. After all, how can we expect to be the best fathers we can be if we don’t know the ultimate father, our Father in heaven?
