A redeemed child of God, happy husband, homeschooling dad of ten, and lifelong lover of good books.
Hey Fellow Dads,
Today we begin a three-episode series introducing both true and fictional stories from Alaska—tales of heroism, survival, and faith that can inspire you and your family to follow wherever God leads.
In this episode, my friend Pastor Bruce Hamilton introduces his first book—God of the Brooks—before I give a few excerpts to whet your appetite. We also briefly discuss God of the Aurora, a modern missionary autobiography adventure, and give a preview of next week’s episode.

I wrote the verse at the top of my planner pages for several weeks in a row and tried to pray more often throughout the day—but felt very unsuccessful. I really couldn’t figure out how to consistently think about God when my days were filled with constant responsibilities and distractions.
