TOTH News:

As Father’s Day approaches, we want to bring attention to God the Father as our parent: our perfect parent. He loves us unconditionally. He always forgives us. He wants us to be happy. He wants us to honor Him, as we should our own parents. 

Love brings forth forgiveness and honor—it is the key. Love shines through in our relationships, be it parent to child or friendships. Friendships strengthen our bonds with one another and give us a sense of belonging, a sense of security.
