Trinity Family Conference 2022 | 2. Fatherhood and Loss | Rev. Joseph Bayly

This year’s Trinity Family Conference focuses on one of the family’s most attacked and villainized positions: the father. Our conference is designed to help families address real problems men face in leading the home as well as arming them with the tools to continue the work of fatherhood in a spiritual war against the original Father. 

Fatherhood and Loss
Rev. Joseph Bayly
God does not comfort us like a mother. He comforts us like a father. When fathers encounter loss, they need their heavenly Father. The road toward recovering from loss cannot be walked without our God's gracious work. Loss can teach us about the fatherhood of God and the fatherhood God expects from us.
