A father's love gives strength to his sons, guidance to his daughters, and protection to the home. He is the most important teacher in their lives, because in him his children see the qualities they will look for in other men. —J.K.M.

"The Lord … commanded our fathers that they should make [His Word] known to their children: that the generation to come might … set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God" (Psalm 78:4-7).
