The Dad We Never Knew We Had

Ditching the Judge to Meet the Dad

Forget the stained-glass windows, the echoing halls, and the distant throne. This isn't a book about religion. It's a re-introduction to the Dad you were always meant to have—the one who isn't waiting for you to be perfect; He's just waiting for you to come home.

"For my dad, who taught me what a real relationship with a father should be. I never would have found the Father in heaven if I hadn't first been loved by a great one on earth."

About This Journey Home

This book is an invitation to tear down the old, scary pictures of God and meet the Dad who throws a party instead of a trial.

For years, I saw God as a king who demanded my allegiance, a judge waiting to punish my mistakes. I lived with a fear that I could mess up so badly He would turn His back on me. But what if that's not the real story? What if we've been looking up at the sky for a God who is untouchable, when all along, our Father has been right here on the ground, kneeling at our level, trying to get our attention?

This is a journey to rediscover the God who feels your heartbreak as if it were His own, who would rather walk through fire than see you face it alone. It's about trading a religion of rules and performance for a real, messy, and beautiful relationship with the Dad who doesn't just love you, but actually *likes* you.
