I Just Don't Want to Shame My Daddy's Name: Stories From Men About Their Fathers and Their God

		Tanya’s first book, May I Please Speak with My Father?, was designed for women to explore how their relationships with their earthly fathers impact their relationships with God. However, after receiving just as much feedback from men on her book, she realized that a book needed to be designed especially by them and for them. I Just Don’t Want to Shame My Daddy’s Name is that book.

 

 

What an Impact a Father Can Make!

For some reason, it’s often hard for women to see God as our Father. He seems so distant, and we often feel dread in His presence. We know the Bible says He is loving, so what could be our problem?

What we need to realize is how the presence or absence of our fathers helps or hinders our relationship with God. The book May I Please Speak with my Father? enables women to share with other women how their relationships with their earthly fathers have impacted their relationship with their heavenly Father.

The book’s unique interactive format combines not only Tanya’s stories but the stories of four other women who have all been fathered differently. These varied stories give the book the feel of a coffee shop conversation being overheard. Readers can then answer journaling questions so they can explore their own relationships with their fathers and with God. A special extended journal section at the end of the book lets the reader write their own story to “complete” the book.

May I Please Speak with my Father? is a great resource for book clubs, Father’s Day gifts, and church groups. While the book is designed for women, men have also enjoyed reading it. Daughters can fill it out to give to their dads, and dads can fill it out to give to their daughters.
