Kieran Devine’s Reviews > The Dating Booklet: Practical Guidelines for Life-Giving Relationships > Status Update

It seems clear to me that the world is hurting from a lack of men and women living out their respective gifts well. JP2 says in Familiaris Consortio, "The family is the first and fundamental school of social living."

The book cites a study (p. 88) that says, "A father's [influence] matters more... for faith practice from adolescence to young adulthood." Fathers must delight in leading their families in the faith.

Might have some good advice to build off of the old adage of "just be a man."
