"God - the Father of My Dreams" is a journey of one person's search for love after never receiving it while growing up with an alcoholic father. This left the author both disappointed and disgusted with the whole concept of fatherhood. We were all created by God to be loved by our Dads and by God the Father. Unfortunately for many of us, our Dads have done a poor job of expressing love and this leaves us with an incomplete and distorted understanding about God and His love. This distortion arises because we form our first impressions about God from our Dads when we are young.

This book also explains the theology of the Fatherhood of God as expressed in the Bible, contrasting God in the Old Testament, who is called Father only about 13 times and commonly perceived as angry, quick to judge and punish; with the New Testament, where God is portrayed as a loving Father who sent His only Son to die for our sins, and is called Father an astonishing 238 times. It was Jesus who came to this world two thousand years ago to reveal God to us as a Father - with fatherly love - who can more than satisfy our starving need for love. God is the Father we have all wanted and need (From back cover).
