Carey Casey

This book is in response to the movie Courageous and is a challenge to men to step up to the call of Fatherhood. This is a daunting task in today's society and many men feel over-whelmed and ill-equipped. This book is written with the evidence of the heart of Jesus - in that it is very encouraging and edifying to men who are in the season of Fatherhood. Though it challenges men in areas it also encourages them to continue in the daily work of being a father.

Like mothers, fathers too need the mentorship of older men. This is simply the call in Timothy spelled out. In this book men will find the advice of other father's who have been down the path. They impart their wisdom that has been gleaned from experience and scripture in a way that will empower the father's of today to become great leaders.

Father's you will not be disappointed. Women - encourage your men, but don't nag them. Point out what they are doing right and allow God to show them through this book and other godly men what scripture says they need to work on. If you buy this for your husband be sure to remind him that you are proud to be married to a godly man that would be willing to read a book like this. As a mother - I know I am constantly encouraged by the huge amount of books on the subject of motherhood. I am glad to see this well-written book for men.

Headline for Book Review: A 21 Day Challenge to be the best dad in the world.
I was given a free copy of this book from Tyndale House Publishers for my honest review which I place on Amazon dot com. This book is a simple, easy to read book with practical tips for each day of the 21 Day Challenge for all dads.
This book was written and dedicated to Carey’s friend Pater Spokes. Peter and Carey were partners in leading the “national center for Fathering” center. Casey knew Peter for four years before Peter passed away from a battle with Leukemia. Carey wants to challenge all fathers to becoming better dad’s 24/7. At the end of your life will you be happy to have zero regrets concerning your fatherhood? This book will guide you on how to be the best dad you can be.
Each chapter has a “Challenge” and a “Plan” for you to read and follow and do. For example on page eight he writes, “Are you willing to try something new as you seek to have fun with your kids?” Then you can place three fun things to do with your children and follow through with them.
I loved this book because I could go online and follow the guide and challenge at http://www.21DayDadChallenge.com/Intro.
I chose this book because I am a mother of a child and her father left us when she was 1.5 years old. I had to play the father and the mother in the roles of my life raising our daughter without much help from him. It broke my heart then and it does now. I want to share with each of you the valuable gift of life we have and as mothers and fathers the time we need to dedicate to our kids is now and not when they are grown up and gone.
I would recommend this book to everyone, fathers and mothers and even children. © 2011 written by Jackie Paulson
