Overview

Just as children are a gift from God, so too are fathers in the lives of their children.


This book aims to impress upon the hearts of parents, guardians, and caregivers the pivotal role of the father figure in the family unit, especially in regard to children, while also providing Biblical guidance as it relates to practices instituted by God for raising our children.


Throughout her career, Pamela has served in the capacity of Counselor, Child/Adolescent Therapist, Behavior-Disorder Teacher and Behavior Intervention Specialist, which has provided her with a plethora of expertise in the field of Child and Adolescent Growth and Development. Her knowledge and skills have enabled her to assist children, parents, and caregivers in the development of healthy social and emotional values.

Pamela believes that growing up without a father can have a domino effect, thus affecting a child's ability to transition successfully into adulthood and/or parenthood. Pamela believes that both parents play an equally important role in the rearing and development of their children's emotional, social, and physical well-being. However, the child looks primarily to the father as the protector, the one who provides a sense of security both physically and emotionally.


Pamela hopes that through her words, readers will become more knowledgeable, insightful, and receptive to God's instructions for raising our children and that less children will need to ask the question, WHERE IS DAD?

About the Author

I, Pamela Perry Jordan, was born and raised in Jackson Mississippi. I am blessed to have been raised by both biological parents, the fifth of eight children. I say "blessed" because today it is not so common. I am the proud parent of two adult children, who were raised in a single parent home. Danielle and Rhashad remain the joy of my life, however I was recently honored with the gift of a grandson, Asiah, my other treasured possession. Early in life, I realized that I had been anointed to counsel. I began to follow my calling while a junior in high school, when a neighbor asked me to counsel her "troubled" son. At that time, her son was a student in my biology class. After graduating high school, I earned an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Mental Health from Tougaloo College in Jackson, Mississippi. I obtained a master's degree in Community Counseling from Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi. Additionally, I obtained a certification in Behavior Disorders and then a specialist degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tennessee. My professional experiences in both public and private sectors include working as a vocational counselor, clinical administrator (state hospital), teacher for students challenged with behavior disorders, and a child/adolescent therapist (emergency shelter). Currently, I am employed with Clayton County Public Schools as a Behavior Intervention Specialist. I have always had a heart for God. Growing up in the church, I served as Sunday School teacher and sang with the adult choir. As a member of New Macedonia Baptist Church, I continue to serve in the capacity of Youth Sunday School teacher, choir member and volunteer for Vacation Bible School. Because of my love for God's creation, much of my leisure time is spent going for long walks, traveling, and tending and nurturing my yard, however, most rewarding is time spent fellowshipping with family and friends.
