Tommy and Sherry were typical American parents. He was a manager at FedEx and she was a soccer mom raising two boys. But when the pressures of work began to affect their family, they chose to make significant changes to their lives to prioritize their family.  A Journey Home is the remarkable true story of divine intervention and a decision to choose family over work and career.

In light of the USA mid-term elections this week, I thought I would post one of my favorite Tim Hawkins videos. Hopefully (but not holding my breath), the election results will help begin the process of reversing what Tim so comically communicates in this music video. Enjoy!

Be sure and watch this video to the end. It has a powerful ending and convicting message to fathers.

Hey fellow dads, Can you relate to this video? They’re watching and learning from us. Share your comments below.

This is an inspiring story about a unique father-son relationship. The first time I heard their story, I was deeply moved by the father’s love and commitment to his son.

The dad works a graveyard shift — 11pm to 6am — so that he can accommodate his son’s schedule.

But that’s not all.

As you will see in the video, this dad gives us a wonderful example — perhaps more extreme than mine or yours — about what it truly means to prioritize our family, even in the midst of difficult circumstances. It involves sacrifice, denying self of comfort and “status quo,” but also much joy and greater blessing than we can imagine.
