Strong Dad June: 8 Reasons Fatherly Leadership is Needed Now More than Ever
As much as it annoys men to hear women proclaim they do not need men, that is the furthest from the truth.
In fact, society is missing strong male leadership and strong dads.
Luckily, millions of you men step up and are doing the right thing. We thank you.
We have 8 reasons why you, especially fathers’ matter and why we as an American society benefit from your leadership.
Reason #1: God gave you the job
God knew what he was doing when he made you men leaders, fathers, husbands and masculine.
If the argument is that women act too masculine, we need you to step it up so we can go back to our femineity trusting, you got it as you act in your duty, obligation, calling and desire to shape your own legacy.
The Lord created fathers to be a living, breathing display of who He is: a protector, a provider and a leader. And while some earthly fathers fail, many strive to live out God’s plan for fatherhood, even though it’s a pretty tall order. So God Made a Father (for Your Dad this Father's Day) - May Patterson
Women, whether married or not, are not fathers. That is a man’s job and only he can do it.
We need fathers to be who God designed you to be so that we women can be who we are called to be.
Consider what God asks fathers to do:
Provide for their families (1 Tim. 5:8)
Love sacrificially (Eph. 5:25-33)
Teach their children about the Lord (Eph. 6:4)
Encourage their children (Col. 3:21)
Talk about God’s word, often (Deut. 6:6-9)
Appreciate their children (Ps. 127:3-5)
Guide their families in serving the Lord (Josh. 24:15)
Set a good example (Prov. 20:7)
Love their children enough to discipline them (Prov. 13:24; 19:18)
Lead their families as Christ leads the church (Eph. 5:23) So God Made a Father (for Your Dad this Father's Day) - May Patterson
God knows what he is asking of you and he will provide what you need to do it. He chose you before you were made in your mothers womb. And we as a society need you more now than ever.
Reason #2: Build Strong Trust
Security comes from a dad that is reliable and around all the time. He comes home from work, does chores, plays with the kids and is a source to look to for comfort.
The world is a dangerous place and dad usually is the one that get early attachment to from their fears, worries and more. It even lasts into adulthood.
“Fathers are one of the first attachments that young children make,” says Dr. Jessica Myszak, a child psychologist and The Help and Healing Center director in Glenview, Illinois. “This early attachment helps form the basis for future relationships in the child’s life. Through their earliest relationships, children learn that they can trust and depend on others.” The Role of a Father: Responsibilities and Importance | Psych Central
I do not need my husband for everything.
I need him for who he is and what he can do that I cannot. Our children need that as well. It is okay if they go to him sometimes for things and they see how different we discipline, teach, mentor and react to situations. It is not bad or good but it is the difference between our beings that balance children.
Reason #3: Leading by Example
Men are saying they are walking away from women.
How do you then teach your sons how to be in a marriage if it hold no more value to you?
Many boys are being taught from women or men who are walking. Who is going to teach our sons how to be husbands if men give up?
In a vaccuum or absent male, women step up. As much as men complain about single mothers, women bosses and women in leadership roles, I ask where are the men?
Kids follow the example of their first authority figures. Boys learn how to be men, fathers and husband watching their dads, daughters learn how to be treated by men based on their relationship with their father.
Fathers lead by being the man that their kids can emulate. They walk in empathy, patience and integrity; doing what they say they will do so their kids can trust in them.
Fathers who exemplify good and healthy relationships teach their children to expect and demand the same for type of respect for themselves.
Reason #4: Treat their Children and their Childrens’ mother with Respect
Bitterness repels. And I understand why so many men feel the need to leave women alone. It isn’t a happy place to deal with mistreatment, loneliness, and hurt.
Yet, there is hope. Not every woman is out to get you or to do you wrong. That is a lie from Satan.
Advice:
Men don't bother the toxic females. They are toxic.
There is no reason to try to negotiate with them, get sex from them and to make children with someone just because it was fun. That has long-term consequences.
Good fathers instead respect the mother of their children and the kids themselves because they know good leaders bring out the best in everyone around them.
You cannot do that with a toxic mate. A strong person by your side works when you are directly involved in their betterment.

Reason #5: You have a Vision.
A father having a vision for his family is a prime example of why this kind of leadership is necessary in our society. It’s about being empowered, uplifting and a sense of purpose for why the family unit exist.
Let society sort out the rest of the drama, messiness and pain from unstable homes, failing communities and feckless politics.
Your other half is out here. You will find her/you have her if you are already together.
She is a gem, but she needs you. She is made to support (Submit to) you ideas and passions that will take the family somewhere; building land, creating generational wealth, run a business, and/or something the father sets forth.
Reason #6: You demand the best out of your children
Most kids excel with the guidance, mentorship and push of a good father. From musicians, athletes, businesspersons, fathers impact the direction of their children.
These dads coach, teach, train and are present for their kids dreams. They push them through failures, pain, rejection and pivoting to something more.
Healing is not easy but a must. If you are missing your own dad or the relationship was not great, you need to dig deep because we all need more fathers.
Children desire to live up to the expectations of a father that wants nothing but the best from them or out of them.
This builds character in a world where anything goes.
Fathers provide structure, order and rules to protect and that means child know what to do and what they ought to be doing daily.
This gives the entire family unit peace, stability and comfort as the father leads the way.
Reason #7: You are a Servant
It is unfair to make a new mate carry old pain. I know it sounds sweet like but that can lead to codependency.
Instead, true father leaders show interdependency, that everyone in the family has a place, fills a need and can contribute in some way.
You attract love by being loving. And Fathers love is something special.
Your whole persona cannot be a fight with the whole other gender so instead you love the mother in ways no one else can.
You serve.
You serve your wife, your kids, you career, you Lord and your community.
Good Fatherly leadership is one in which your love is shown not just told. In the way you make your family laugh, provide the basics and your presences in times of need.
You use sex with the one you love to build the intimacy needed to fulfil your marriage with joy.
Men lead by sacrifice, as Christ sacrificed for us. Fathers are children’s first heroes because the strength to endure is shown early on.
Father work tirelessly, through pain, through unfairness with grit and bares the responsibilities they must for those they love.
You show accountability, you take ownership, you teach children that everyone deserves to be treated like they want to be treated by your acts of service to them, the world and your community.
Summary
We need fathers. Not matter what the liars say. Strong Dads make a difference.
They make for Iconic marriages, children and families by doing the job God gave them to do that ONLY they can do.
And we appreciate you for it. That is why Iconic is celebrating you all month long.
A nation needs that leadership starting inside you, in your family and in your community.
The world would prefer for weak men so globalism can succeed. You cannot let them win by walking away. Instead, YOU Fathers must lead the counterculture.
YOU dads are the answers to the problems we face.
Fathers are that important. We know it is hard, we see your work. We see your love, your time and your energy.
We honor you for being Iconic.
