A Father's Gift of Prayer (ePub)

For most of my life I have had a strong sense of doing something special in life. As a college professor of 40 years, you may believe that I have already done so. But, while I have taught 300 plus academic courses and over 6000 students, published a dozen books and hundreds of papers, and even co-founded the American Society of Exercise Physiologists as the first professional organization of exercise physiologists in the U.S., my desire has always been to teach others about Jesus Christ as the Son of God. This is a book of hope and faith; it should be treasured by every father who loves his family and wishes the very best for his wife and children. It will encourage, motivate, and help fathers to bring prayer into their family matters and, thus should greatly enrich the life of each family member (especially the children). My religious credentials are minimal, although I am the author of The Power Within book (also published by AuthorHouse). However, I am a Christian, educator, and a concerned citizen of this world. This book addresses critical issues while offering hope and spiritual help and guidance in dealing with life's challenges. The central theme is simple: A father's gift to his family is "prayer" that will transform and maximize the lives of his family. This is the greatest gift he can give to his wife and children. I know this is true, and I wish I had done more of it as I was raising my family. Today, as I look around and see the very young parents with their children, as I look back on my PhD in exercise physiology, master's degree in public health, master's in management, and a master's of business administration all above the doctorate degree, I know in my heart that what I really wanted was a master's in theology. Well, I don't have it but I do have the desire to share my beliefs and ideas just the same. That is what I have done while living here in Duluth, MN where I teach at the College of St. Scholastica.
