God doesn't make life choices for his children.

Neither should fathers.

Um, what

Yep.

Except… that’s not even remotely biblical. God absolutely directs the steps of His people.

Proverbs 16:9

Proverbs 3:6

God isn’t some passive dad cheering from the sidelines. He calls, commands, disciplines, and leads.

And if you’re a father made in His image, that’s your job too.

Fathers aren’t called to sit back and vibe. They’re called to lead the household like a shepherd leads a flock…not with passivity, but with purpose.

God doesn’t just let His children “find themselves.” He conforms them to Christ. That’s discipleship.

And good fathers do the same.

So no. This take isn’t just wrong.

It’s lazy, liberal, and biblically illiterate
