June 12, 2013 - Fatherhood Responsibilities - LDS Social Network ...

Every father in the Church should function as the patriarch of his home. He should take the lead in spiritually guiding the family. He ought not to delegate or abrogate his responsibilities to the mother. He should call for family prayer, family home evening, scripture reading, and occasional father's interviews. He is the protector, the defender, and the kindly source of discipline.

It is the father who should lead, unify, and solidify the family unit by accepting the priesthood of God and responding to the calls and privileges associated with priesthood authority. His relationship with God and His Son, Jesus Christ, is one of the beacons which will lead his sons and daughters through the stormy shoals of life.
