Transformation | Healing the Broken Father/Child Bond

Loading player...
Intro: Over the last few weeks, we have explored the causes and
impact of absent fathers. Today, we want to talk about healing. It
is especially difficult to experience the father wound as a Christian
because we are taught to honour our parents. We are taught to
forgive. It can be very confusing to know how to navigate a
relationship with our father or what is okay and not okay to feel.
