(Foreword by J. John) A timely collection of Christmas material for every occasion from one of the world's leading developers of resource compilations.

Dr. Mark Stibbe fell in love with John’s gospel as a teenager. This set of devotional readings springs from profound reflection over many years on the character of the Father in this gospel. He writes:

In John's Gospel, Jesus is the Son who reveals the Father. He is presented to us as the one who came to show us what the Father is truly like. He says of himself that he is the only Way to the Father and the one who discloses the truth about the Father heart of God. Every verse of John's Gospel reveals the Father.

Stibbe has already unpacked the implications of the Father who has adopted us, embraced us in His family, and promised never to abandon us in his book I Am Your Father. Every Day with the Father encourages readers not to just learn but to live these truths.

In January 2009, Dr. Mark Stibbe left his role as the senior leader of a highly successful Anglican congregation. Taking a big step of faith, he founded a ministry called The Father’s House, dedicated to taking the Father’s love to the fatherless and bringing an end to the global pandemic of fatherlessness.

Mark took this risk because he is convinced that our society has been deeply damaged by absent or brutal fathers. The churches can offer a solution—a healing relationship with our Heavenly Father--but many Christians have been poorly fathered and are bound by the legacy of this wound. As long as believers are restricted by the chains of their past, their churches will not be a part of the solution to fatherlessness; they will be a part of the problem. "The whole planet is waiting for Christian believers to rise up as the adopted sons and daughters of Abba, Father."

There are many ways to approach Bible study. Here are 100 verses that together convey the essence of the Bible—the entire narrative of salvation—and can be used as a quick introduction or as a way to dig deeply and internalize each word of each verse.

In one complete volume, author Mark Stibbe has collected a plethora of stories, jokes, quotes, and readings that inspire, strengthen, and show the humor in marriage.
