How well did you know your dad? What did he do when he was a kid? What games did he play? What kind of music did he like?

Obedience or Exasperation…so which is it? Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. (Colossians 3:20, 21 ESV) This verse has often been a guardrail in my parenting. My lovely wife has brought it to my attention more than once as well. [...]
