Welcome to
A physically and emotionally involved father can radically change the course of his child's life.
Pursue your purposeful fatherhood journey today.
// PURPOSE
01
Why
Many studies have correlated an increase in drug use, higher depression rates, lower grades, more likelihood of living in poverty, and more to children who live without a father, or permanent male influence in their home.
At The Intentional Father, we believe a physically and emotionally involved father can radically change the course of his children's lives for the better.
02
How
In order to change the course of our child's life, we must first step up as men and fathers and take action. To enable this movement, The Intentional Father's mission is to Encourage and Equip fathers to develop purposeful relationships with their children by being Present and Intentional daily.
03
What
To accomplish our mission and enable men to pursue purposeful fatherhood daily, we offer many free Fatherhood Resources:

As a husband since 2013 and father of 3, I have a passion for faith, family, and fatherhood and a continual desire to learn and improve. This site is as much for me as it is anyone else.
The Intentional Father is a passion project I greatly enjoy working on. The site is continually growing, but if nothing else comes of it, it has been worth the time, money, and effort for the growth I have personally experienced as a Man, Husband, and Father.

// THANK YOU
Thank you for visiting The Intentional Father
This site is a passion project that was built solely to assist fathers in bettering their relationships with their children. I believe if a foundational relationship is properly build between a father and a child, no adversity will destroy it. The house may get demolished, but the foundation will remain on which the house can be rebuilt.
My hope is to provide anything and everything a father needs to build that foundation and nurture that relationship.
Throughout this site my faith shows through. I am a Christian and my thoughts and actions are rooted in prayer, the bible, and Jesus Christ. While this is the case, every child in this world needs an intentional father-figure. The vast majority of content is applicable to all fathers to learn and benefit from.
That being said, if you would like to learn more about Christianity please visit our Grow In Faith page. If you have questions or simply want someone to pray with or for you, send us a message here: Connect With Us.
I sincerely thank you for visiting The Intentional Father.
