A proven plan to raise sons of integrity, faith, and consequence
Dads today are often overwhelmed with both the responsibility and the complexity of raising sons in this challenging culture. At the same time self-initiation is killing our young men. Without strong mentors, boys are walking alone into a wilderness of conflicting messages about who they should be as men.
The Intentional Father is a helpful antidote, filled with practical steps to help men raise sons of consequence--young men who know what they believe, know who they are, and will stand up against the negative cultural trends of our day. Jon Tyson lays out a clear path for fathers and sons that includes
● intentional steps to take as you prepare and plan for your son's initiation into manhood
● principles to guide you through each step: preparation, initiation, formation, and recognition
● questions to reflect on throughout the process
● stats, charts, and data visualizations based on research among fathers across America
It's not enough to hope our sons will become good men. We need them to be good at being men. This book shows new dads and fathers, grandfathers, and other male mentors how to lead the way.

Dads guide book to help guide your Boy
Honestly, I’ve read a lot of new father books. A lot of them were very corny, bland and hard to read. I was instantly hooked when I read Intentional Father. Jon Tyson was a big reason I’m a Christian man today, and he never pushed it on you in the book. The sense of belonging I felt while reading was incredible, I’ve never felt that before. And community plays a massive role in bringing up children. I was missing that my whole life.
Jon shows you positive ways, ways to show your emotions to your son and more importantly have an open, genuine relationship with him aswell. Something I longed for. Jon, if you read this, from the bottom of my heart, you are truly a god given gift, a servant of Him and I want to say thank you for taking the time and sharing these heart felt and warming stories of your family. This book has changed my life and like a chain reaction it’s changed my son’s life aswell. Your unique ideas and approach to how western culture has failed us and ways to redeem it are next to none. Thank you. I’ll be keeping this book for years to come.
