The Dad in the Mirror: How to See Your Heart for God Reflected in Your Children (The Man in the Mirror Library)

I actually have the soft cover of this book. And since I got the kindle, I wanted to always have it on me ready for whatever I need as sort of a reference guide. I use this book above all father books as my foundation structure. It is a great book!Ricardo Butler[...]

We bought a few more copies to give to friends because it is so good. We needed more books like this years ago when we raised our kids. We had girls, but many of the principles still apply, and now we have two grandsons to apply more of it!

Great book! All fathers need to read!!!

Since my wife and I first learned that we were expecting over 3 years ago, I've gone through several different books on how to be a great dad.Unfortunately, most of the books just freaked me out and got me all panicked that my kid would end up the school bully or worse!The Dad in the Mirror is the book that I was looking for all these years! Finally! This is a book written for the dad who's looking at the heart of his kids... not just the A's on the report card. It actually felt while reading it that this book was specifically written for me!I found this book to be a great read and lots of the topics covered can easily be incorporate into my fathering skills.I would strongly recommend this book to any dad, grand-dad, or soon-to-be-dad!

If you have read "The Man in the Mirror", dont' be mistaken in assuming this book is just a different wrapper on the same material. Morley and Delk use a familiar metaphor but lead men to a deeper, Biblically clear understanding of how to be the dad who will see Proverbs 20:7 fulfilled. How to be the father our heavenly Father desires we be. Short, powerful, true to the Word of our Creator - "The Dad in the Mirror" is a terrific book for any man with kids - or grandkids. Don't let this book pass you by.

This book has had a tremendous impact on me as a dad! Patrick and David have done a superb job in describing the difference between 'fathering for performance' and 'fathering the heart'. I especially like the "Straight to the Heart" section at the end of each chapter. I highly recommend this book for all dads, soon-to-be-dads, and grand-dads.

This book moves from superficial "how tos" to that which will have eternal impact - fathering the heart of the child, as opposed to behavior modification. This book is a must for fathers and grandfathers who are interested in helping shape the true character of their children and grandchildren.

I could not put this book down. Pat Morely and David Delk have really come up with a formula for raising great kids. I found the content stimulating and thought provoking. Any man struggling with raising children with a godley perpective should read this book.
