Father's Day 2025 is a special one for me, because my wife is pregnant with our firstborn child, so it is my first father's day as a father! For reasons that still remain unclear to me, my pastor asked me to speak at our church on Father's Day Sunday. Initially, I didn't have much to say about Father's Day and was going to teach a lesson that I had already put together about something else. But the night before, I was really struggling to figure out how to present that lesson. My wife suggested I spend some time in prayer (which is always wise, and should usually come first) and as I prayed I felt the Lord giving me liberty to go in a different direction in light of some of the things I have been thinking about as I prepare to be a father.
Here's the YouTube video with the message, if you would like to listen to the message I gave:
In that message, I also discuss the chiastic nature of the story of Solomon. I figured I would include that graphic here, in case someone wanted to see a visual representation of it.
