He shatters fear and estrangement in his joyful exploration of Jesus's promise to show us his Father--and ours. It is a heartwarming journey, starting with the universal experience of loss and ending in the Father's welcoming arms as dearly loved children.From the Back CoverDad, do you love me?It's a question that haunts the deepest parts of our hearts.
