Those who experience Fatherlessness know it is like a constant shadow cast over the whole of life. Fatherless people can feel a lasting wound in their lives and may experience an identity crisis that robs them of significance and security. They lack a blueprint for manhood, relationships, and parenthood. It forms a deficit in human society. 

This book is a comprehensive study of the father deficit in contemporary society and of fatherhood in the Bible, culminating in what it is to know God as Father.

In a format that suits individual and group study, this book explores various forms of fatherlessness and seeks to hear what the Bible says about human fathers and God the Father. The book opens a window on what it feels like to be fatherless through a range of personal stories, including that of the author. There is also a challenge for churches to consider how they can better care for the fatherless. 

There are no quick fixes for fatherlessness and the gaping hole it leaves in our society, but this book shows how the gospel can transform relationships. For those who feel hopeless because of this issue, this book points to the hope and help found in the God of the Bible, the Father to the fatherless.
