Daddies and Daughters

"When a father fails to capture the heart of his daughter, it makes her terribly vulnerable. The father is the first man in a girl’s life. If he is distracted and operates under some illusion that girls raise themselves, tragedy follows." -Daddies and Daughters

From time to time I will share a post. One of my favorite bloggers is Ingrid Schlueter, the author of the quote above. For many years she was a Christian worldview radio host with Crosstalk America, her father's ministry.   One of my favorite shows she ever did is called It's 911 Time For Christian Girlhood: Reclaiming Our Daughters for Christ.  Click here to listen to that show.  Her recent post on Daddies and Daughters also struck a cord with me. Although I did not grow up with a father, I can see what a blessing it is for girls to have involved and caring fathers.
