In the last chapter of “Point Man,” Farrar writes, “If you know Jesus Christ personally, you have not only a rock, but a role model.” (256). And the takeaway from that is this: even if your dad was not solid, and even if he was not a good model Christian for you, if you know Jesus as your Savior, you DO have a model to follow.
Farrar admits for us, “It’s a Herculean task to lead a family,” but, he adds, “with the power of God supporting you, it is a tremendous privilege.” (258). You can count on God’s support and power and wisdom if you’re willing to be the point man in your family. He is, after all, Immanuel.
