Being a Dad—It’s Hard Work: June 15 Newsletter
Newsletter / Produced by The High Calling
Good old Dad. He’ll be happy this Sunday for Father’s Day even if you buy him another tie and a pair of socks. Right?
Some of us struggle with our relationships with our dads. Others owe much more to our fathers than we can ever make up for with a tie and socks. In this newsletter we’ll hear from a woman whose father put family first, and a man grateful to his dad for walking the walk of faith and not just talking the talk. And we’ll let the Psalms remind us that being a parent is terribly hard and important work.
If you find relating to your father hard, remember you can always speak to your Heavenly Father who loves you unconditionally. And if you get along with Dad? Please, go find him something other than a tie.

Participating in God’s Work
From the Theology of Work Project
Psalm 113 calls for practical praise to God in all areas of life. Although the psalm could have named many kinds of work to illustrate its point, it chooses the work of raising children.
The demands, pressures and stress of work can put a huge strain on relationships with our coworkers. This 4-day plan from Theology of Work Project and Workmatters provides simple steps you can take to be more loving to your coworkers that will transform those relationships and increase both joy and productivity at work.
