46. Fathering the Fatherless, with Seth Johnson
Sometimes the call to fatherhood is sudden and unexpected. Seth Johnson, director of IAMercy, experienced that first-hand when God called him to father the street children of Nairobi, Kenya. What started as a feeding ministry has evolved into so much more, with several of those street boys becoming Seth’s sons. In this eye-opening and raw conversation with Seth, he shares some of the heartwarming — and heartbreaking — stories of the children who have come to call him “dad.” He also shares important lessons-learned about fatherhood from his own journey, as well as the deep yearning in a child’s heart for a father and the powerful ways he has seen God show up as Father in the lives of the fatherless. You will be moved by the stores Seth shares in this episode and gain a deeper appreciation for the true heart of a father.
