As the father goes, so goes his family...
According to a study done by the Barna Group, almost 80% of self-identifying Christian young adults are abandoning the Faith by their mid-twenties. That is a staggering statistic and one we as Christians should all be taking notice of.
​
It should cause us to stop and ask the question, "why?"
​
Is it because we need more churches? Better worship music? Better speakers?
​
No. The truth is that, as the father goes, so goes his family.
​
93% of families will follow the father when he takes an active role in his faith with Christ. Research further backs up this claim - showing that 60% of children stop attending church or leave altogether (even if mom still attends regularly) if the father is not actively pursuing Christ.
​
Dads were specifically meant by God to influence their family - to the benefit of the Church and to the world. Unfortunately, it's the other way around - the world is influencing families and Dads more.
​
DadInTheTrenches exists to provide you with Biblical Truth, challenge and encouragement as you do your life "in the trenches" - to spur you on to deepen your faith in Christ - and to spur you on to "love and good works" with your family.

The world needs to see true Christians living life - and it starts with us, Dad. We go first. As we go so will our families.
