Tom Davis: Father to the Fatherless

in News, Issues, & Commentary

After you die, how do you want to be remembered?

Father to the Fatherless

Tom Davis already knows his answer.

“I want to be remembered as a committed husband and
father, and as a man who was an advocate for the fatherless—who did
something to help the poorest of the poor.”

Tom, who’s president of Children’s Hope Chest, has a passion for the fatherless, as I learned firsthand when I interviewed him for a story I wrote for Today’s Christian magazine (May/June 2008).

The father of biological, adopted, and informally adopted children, Tom is also an avid blogger. On his Notes From The Field blog, Tom takes us along on his many trips to third-world countries, and he frankly discusses many important issues.

I noticed that he is giving away two free books to other bloggers who are willing to read and write posts about them.

A few weeks ago, Tom sent me a new edition of his book, Fields of the Fatherless: Discover the Joy of Compassionate Living. The new edition has additional chapters, Tom’s personal experience in “the fields” and a study guide. He plans to release a DVD that will include personal stories and experiences of those who have walked through the Fields, along with Tom’s commentary on each chapter.

To learn more about Tom, his family, and his ministry, check out “Father to the Fatherless” in Today’s Christian.
