Hi, my name is Josh Rodriguez. You have landed on my website: Lead, Dad. Lead.

Welcome!!

I am a Christian, husband, Dad, and writer who is struggling to learn to love, lead, and nourish my large family for God’s glory. As Victoria, my wife, and I walk together on this wonderful path God has called us to, we pray you will find encouragement, laughter, healing, and hope as we share from the crazy unpredictable life God has given us.

For Dads, but all are welcome

I write primarily to dads who are struggling to lead their family. But that doesn’t mean only dads visit my site. Moms, Grandparents, Aunt, Uncles, and just about everyone can find encouragement and inspiration. 

Why I write

I blog to encourage and inspire Dads who are struggling to be better dads today than they were yesterday. It is my desire to assist and support Dads who need a shoulder to lean on. Someone that understands and appreciates their struggle.

Here are some of the topics I write about:

• Being a Dad
• Having a Godly home
• Nurturing and raising a large family
• Dealing with pregnancy and infant loss

Here are few of my most popular posts:

• So Who Else Loves Being Called Dad
• Jared’s Story – a multi part series about the loss of our Jared, stillborn at 7 months
• My Worst Mistake as a Dad
• Struggles of a Dad-less Dad
• 7 Simple Ways to Have Great Conversation With Your Kids

Other projects:

I also write radio and audio dramas and am developing a book series for kids. 

Whether you are a family of two or twenty-two, all Dads were made to lead. At times, that can be extremely difficult today. No matter how hard it may be, we have to be leaders in our families, our communities, our workplace, and where ever we find God has placed us.

It is my prayer and desire you find encouragement, strength, and help to become the leaders God has called us to be.

Thanks for reading. Come back soon.
