Synopsis

The Necessity of Fathering

In 1 Corinthians 4:15, Paul talks about how the Corinthians had thousands of instructors in Christ. However, they did not have many fathers like him to serve as a spiritual covering. Through four decades of experience in ministry, Bishop David A. Lazarus has seen up close the need for such spiritual fathering and mothering. Only through an appreciation for foundational biblical teaching and close relationships fostered in an atmosphere of mutual submission and accountability can the Church hope to develop into a spiritual powerhouse. This is the kind of house needed to usher in a worldwide revival in the 21st century.

In Where Have All the Fathers Gone? Bishop Lazarus relates some of the troubles he endured when he tried to raise up spiritual leaders without these kinds of close relationships. And, the fruit that followed once he established this principle in training sons and daughters for ministry. This book includes a detailed exploration of the powerful example of Elijah and Elisha, and how the father enabled the son to do even greater things in ministry.
