Preface
Apostle Patrick Isaac has not only inherited the role of spiritual father by vocation, but also the fruits of his ministry demonstrate the revelation of the price and responsibilities attached to it. The impact this book will have on future generations is undeniable.
Bishop David W. Burton
The Resurrection Center
Canada
"Apostle Isaac is a man of God that we have come to know as a man of wisdom and character and we are honored to call him friend. As a global apostolic leader and father to many, the importance of the spiritual father/spiritual son relationship is critical, and, unfortunately, due to misinformation and a lack of the correct information, many times those relationships do not develop into the totality that they could.
A postle Isaac poignantly speaks to the necessity of that relationship and then lays out a clear and very practical biblical plan to facilitate those relationships God’s way. We intend to use this book throughout our organization to enhance what we already teach. ‘Fatherless Nation’ will do a wonderful job to equip you as a spiritual father or son."

"We have seen a decline in fathers. This is true both naturally and spiritually. Apostle Patrick Isaac has responded to this need. He has written a book that will challenge the leadership of the Church. This book is based on both the Word of God and experience.
I have known Patrick Isaac and I have seen his passion for truth. You will feel it as you read the pages of this book. I believe this passion can be imparted. You can and will receive a passion to see spiritual fathers restored to the Church. The restoration of fathers will bring the Church into a new level of power and authority. God is teaching us the importance of the Church as a spiritual family, and this book will help reinforce this truth. Where there is no vision the people perish. Allow this book to give you a vision for churches with fathers who have a passion to see sons and daughters come into their calling and destiny."
Apostle John Eckhardt

Senior Pastor - Crusaders Ministry

"Fatherlessness is probably the greatest curse in the history of any nation. It is certainly one of the most destructive social trends in modern history. Spiritual fatherlessness is by far one of the greatest weaknesses and spiritual gaps we are experiencing in our churches and communities today.
The book Fatherless Nation
by Apostle Patrick Isaac exposes many of the social, psychological and spiritual legacies of fatherlessness in our communities: radical independence, chronic rebellion, pervasive insecurity, identity crisis and spiritual drought. This book gives a deliberate and powerful response to an incredible need in the global church. The book Fatherless Nation
calls the Church to reclaim God’s standard for educating and preparing next-generation Church leaders and ministries. As an apostle of a global network with a global vision to bring global change, I highly recommend this book to create awareness, provide some solutions, and bring some clarity to an ongoing need in the Body of Christ. Spiritual fathering in our generation has the capacity and scope to correct the outstanding dysfunction that exists in our global communities and societies."
Apostle Eliseus Joseph

Introduction
A s we take a glimpse at today’s society, we can undoubtedly notice the social issues that we are facing. The rate of single parenthood is on the rise. The divorce rate is on the rise. Cohabitation has become the norm in various regions. The homosexuality phenomenon has become more and more prevalent in certain nations. It is very common to see children born out of wedlock with different parents. That is, three brothers and sisters can be related by blood with their mom, yet each can have a different father. Social professionals have enormous difficulty managing problems that society is encountering with the youth. In many countries, the street gang phenomenon has reached epidemic proportions. Drug use has penetrated schools and affected students at an appalling level. Youths are having their first sexual encounters at ages still shy of puberty. Juvenile pornography and juvenile and young adult
