Fatherlessness: How to Thrive and Succeed in a Fatherless Generation

What happens to a life built without a father? Some become fighters. Some become pleasers. Some never speak of it at all. But deep within every fatherless child—boy or girl—there is a silent question: "Who am I, if he never chose me?"
