Stumbling Your Way to Spiritual Leadership

Publisher's summary

Have the day-to-day realities of being a dad and husband left you frustrated or just plain worn out? You're not alone. Jerrad Lopes felt that way too...until he started blogging about his struggles and discovered thousands of other men who want to be good husbands and fathers but don't know where to start.

In Dad Tired and Loving It, you will learn that spiritual leaders:

• Realize their story isn't the story - it's all about Jesus
• Point their wives, children, community, and world toward God
• Stumble their way through spiritual leadership rather than doing nothing
• Seek humility rather than strive for perfection

When you begin to understand the bigger picture of God's purpose for you in your marriage and family, you'll see that the good news of Jesus makes it possible for you to love and lead without fear and discouragement. Get equipped and encouraged as you become the man God is calling you to be - even when you're dad tired.

Phenomenal

A great book for those seeking to grow closer to Jesus and hearing a few ways from another dad and husbands perspective on how to do so. Jerrad does a great job pointing you towards Jesus and new ways to help you grow and ways to help you and your family to grow closer to the lord, what a great book.

Awesome book!

Jerrad does an awesome job! I absolutely love this Book! Definitely going to recommend this book to every Dad I meet!

Relatedable/Well Done

I liked everything about it, I think this book covers the major things most fathers most likely fail to do because we naturally want to be subject matter experts and when we’re not, it can be tougher to lead in this situations so I thought it was good.

Really Encouraging!

I’ve read a lot of books that speak to the “ideals” of parenthood, but this book feels more accessible and down to Earth. This was a really encouraging read for me. It made me laugh and brought tears to my eyes multiple times. Not tears because of something sad, but more because I could relate so much to what was being said. If you’re a tired dad, you need to read this book.

Extremely Gospel centered and loving it

I really appreciate that the entire book focuses on the Gospel and then he gives the how and why this impacts us in our day to day lives as dads and husbands.

Hope for a Burnt Out Dad and Husband

This book is like a 8 piece nugget meal. Each chapter has encouraging and challenging points that are easy to digest and in a memorable story form. I found myself in silence at the end, contemplating lots of things about my life as a dad, husband, and disciple of Christ. I couldn’t help but feel less tired of it and little more hopeful about it all.

This is what men need!

Loved the brutal transparency and candor as he works the gospel into every nook and cranny of being a man who is a dad.
