The Heart of the Father is a must read for those who want to be enlightened by the power of true paternity. This is a book with a clear and direct message that captures in a simple, but profound way, one of the most important and least understood themes of the 21st Century in the Body of Christ. Pastor Joshua Rodriguez manages to inspire us and assist us in evaluating our relationships through his own experience during a time when true paternity has been distorted by men-lovers of themselves-who have confused paternity with paternalism. Like Esther, God has enlightened the author to create this literary jewel in a time like this, arriving to the rescue of many sons and daughters that await the heart of a true father. This book should be a part of every minister’s personal library.
