I Call Shotgun By Tommy Newberry and Curt Beavers

love that there is a book that is by Dads for sons. You see so many books on Mothers and daughters, though maybe because I have not searched out books with this content.

You can read this book straight through or turn to the lesson you need. As a reader who read straight through, the letter format made the book easier and faster to read. Changes in fonts helped fiend off monotony. Text bubbles gave a modern take and look to letter writing.

I found this book very refreshing by using Bible verses and personal life stories to help explain the lesson. The letters are not demanding, my-way-or-highway. They are positive, understanding and relatable in nature. The Fathers gave their sons respect. As if they are writing in the same context or lesson they are trying to teach (i.e. to teach understanding, the tone of the letter comes from an understanding aspect), if that makes any sense.
