The Narrow Path Ministries

Hi Selah - "Fathers" can show up in many places. In the fellowship I was part of in Texas, the men made efforts to take the young fatherless boys fishing, or help them with their sports - guy stuff. It was a wonderful fellowship. They preached God's love and discipleship. I am seeing our societal f...

I think a case can be made that "resisting" the devil can include commanding him to back off. That appears to be what Jesus did. I don't think it is wrong to voice our disdain for what he is doing or attempting to do. He is an adversary, but he is a defeated adversary and I believe, to a large exte...

We suspect drugs. We can't imagine this young man doing this crime without the transformation of illegal drugs.

Does anybody know how to turn the hearts of gangsters and hoods to Jesus Christ?

On August 7, he was arrested and held in jail all this time until this Thursday, he has court. I have visited him every visitation opportunity and his emotions have been up and down between severe depression and anger to moderate optimism. I am very concerned for him. Last night, I went to see him i...

I think this has been a good example of what makes this forum such a blessing, at least to me. I appreciate everyone's time who has responded.

Hi Everyone, Fatherless young men, I believe, have unique challenges to forge pathways of success in adult life. This, I believe, is primarily a problem of self-identity. They don't know who they really are. Everyone needs to know who they really are because God-is-who-He-is, but I believe that fath...
