** spoiler alert **
Caution: If you are sensitive to reproductive references, there are a few of them in this book.
Don Miller writes about how he felt insecure growing up without a father in his life. Through mentors at his various churches, he begins to look at God in a new light, as a personal Father instead of a distant concept, and it helps him to change his perspective.
He still struggles with feelings of insecurity or being cheated at times.
The premise of the book is, children need a father figure. If there is no father, they need a mentor to show them how to mature and grow up. Even girls without a father, he wrote, are more likely to be taken advantage of than a girl with a father in the home.
He started a mentoring organization to help the fatherless.
The book seems more aimed at males than at females.
