The concepts presented are profoundly simple. But we all know how difficult it is to implement simple truths. We know we should love better. Or be more patient. Or be more courageous, or diligent, or faithful. But can we? – “Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters: 10 Secrets,” introduction page xiv

Time is what your daughter wants most from you. Nothing communicates the priority of family more than the willingness to spend relaxed time with her. Nothing makes a girl feel more valuable than recognizing her father enjoys her company … This will make a huge impact on her sense of value. – “Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters Devotional,” page 27
