Our Father Knows Best

We recently observed Father's Day, a time meant to honor the physical fathers in our lives. However, our societal values have shifted in a way that attacks the family model God designed, particularly the role of the father. Our Heavenly Father gave us a model for fathers in the family for our benefit, and forgetting what His model means can cause unnecessary suffering in the family. Let's look at what God truly intended for the structure of the family.

Len Martin was ordained in 1999 and is presently the pastor of the United Church of God congregations in London, KY, Knoxville & Kingsport, TN. Len has previously pastored congregations in Worcester, MA, Seabrook, NH, Cambridge, Columbus, Mansfield, and Dayton, OH.

Len holds undergraduate degrees in engineering and information systems as well as an MBA in Finance. Len and his wife have been raised in the Church of God and have 5 children and 5 grandchildren. They are very thankful for the Biblical truths on marriage, family, child-rearing and many other interpersonal relationships.
