Welcome to the Ezekiel 22:30 Fatherhood Blog!

Let me begin by stating that I am BY NO MEANS an expert in fatherhood. In fact, seeing as I am, as I sit here typing this in early June 2022, not even yet a father, it would be the height of hubris for me to even imply that I might be. This blog is NOT for me to provide anyone with expert advice. Instead, the purpose is for me to share my thoughts, struggles, successes, and failures as I begin my journey as a soon-to-be father.

But it's more than that. I want this blog to be treated like a meeting place, a command tent perhaps, for all fathers who are determined to lead their families in Christ. I want this to be a common ground where Christian husbands and fathers can make use of the comment sections to share about your thoughts, struggles, successes, and failures. We have all heard that iron sharpens iron, and I hope that this can become a community where we can all grow together.

So what do I envision for the content of this blog? Well I hope to feature 3 main types of blog posts:

  1. Personal Anecdotes - I want to share stories from my personal journey as a Christian Father.
  2. Biblical Wisdom and Learning - I want to share what I am learning about fatherhood from Scripture and from the Christian fathers speaking into my life. Hopefully these will spark great conversations in the comments section so that I can learn from all of your insights as well!
  3. Guest Posts - My hope is that as we build a community here, many of you will be inspired to share your stories and the things you are learning or have learned as Christian fathers so that I can post them for everyone to benefit from.
That being said, if you have found us here and are a father or ever hope to be a father someday, I hope you will join our community. Click the follow button on the left, join our mailing list to hear about the latest posts, and please start or join in on the conversations in the comment section! Also, if you have any stories, devotionals, or lessons from your own fatherhood journey and are interested in becoming a guest contributor, please reach out to me by way of the contact form!

Thanks for being here!

Why Ezekiel 22:30?

"I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one."  Ezekiel 22:30 Why have I  chosen this verse to be the theme of this blog and the theme of my own fatherhood? The short answer is that I believe this verse epitomizes what it means to be a Christian husband and father. But more than that, this verse issues a challenge — a challenge I desire to rise to, and a challenge I want to share with you. But first, some context. There is nothing worse than cherry-picking a verse out of the Bible and making it say whatever you want it to say, so let's start by talking about what's going on here in Ezekiel: In short, the book of Ezekiel begins about five years after the first exile of the southern kingdom of Israel. Ezekiel was one of the captives taken away to Babylon and God appears to him and tells him to make accusations on God's behalf against the Israeli...
