Synopsis

Have the day-to-day realities of being a dad and husband left you frustrated or just plain worn out? You're not alone. Jerrad Lopes felt that way too . . . until he started blogging about his struggles and discovered thousands of other men who want to be good husbands and fathers but don't know where to start.

In Dad Tired and Loving It you will learn that spiritual leaders:

● Realize their story isn't the story—it's all about Jesus

● Point their wives, children, community, and world toward God

● Stumble their way through spiritual leadership rather than doing nothing

● Seek humility rather than striving for perfection

When you begin to understand the bigger picture of God's purpose for you in your marriage and family, you'll see that the good news of Jesus makes it possible for you to love and lead without fear and discouragement. Get equipped and encouraged as you become the man God is calling you to be—even when you're dad tired.

Goodreads review by Mariale on September 03, 2019

I have been listening to the podcast from Jerrad for a while so I was interested to find out if the book is as my expectations and it was. It is inspiring to hear and read "Dad Tired" encouraging men to be the spiritual leader in their home. This is something many men are struggling with. We need to......more

Goodreads review by Rephael on February 22, 2024

I enjoyed this book, well audiobook, but felt that it was more of a primer for something more. Which would make sense, since Jerrad Lopes has built a sort of empire online with his podcasts and other resources. It does give a few practical ways to connect to your kids and wife. He is very relatable,......more
