About this episode
Sometimes a country music lyric just nails it.
In 1999, a unique song was released on country radio. It wasn’t about trucks or dirt roads– it was about the relationship between a loving stepfather and a stepson.
To everyone’s surprise, the song reached number one on the country charts. The key lyric, sang by artist Brad Paisley, reads: “I hope I’m at least half the dad that he didn’t have to be.”
You may not have a biological son. But every young man longs to be mentored, invested-in, and listened-to– not out of obligation, but simply out of love. Be prayerful about finding a boy in your church or your extended family who needs a dad-like figure to show him that he is worthy– just like the young man in that famous song.
