Father Accountability (Reprise)

That was quick.

Colin, one of the inmates who began the Father Accountability class with us last evening just came by my office. Already, after just one class session, he's heard enough to cause him to know there's something more he needs in life to be the man he wants to be. He wants to be a better dad. But more than that, he wants to be a better man. What an opportunity!

We talked for a while, him asking questions and me sharing the Scriptures and relating to his struggles. He sees his need. And he's moving in that direction. He left with a new Bible and the promise to begin reading it and to come back so we can talk some more.

That's what Father Accountability is really all about.
