Otac obitelji : devet tjedana s patrom Kentenichom, duhovni put za supružnike

The book Father of the Family: Nine Weeks with Father Kentenich, by Tilmann Beller, serves as a practical and inspiring spiritual-pedagogical handbook for husbands and fathers who wish to deepen their role within the family and society. The author—a long-serving priest and prominent figure in the Schoenstatt Movement—systematically presents the ideas, methods, and spiritual legacy of the movement’s founder, Father Josef Kentenich, while adapting them to the challenges and needs of contemporary family life. The book is structured as a nine-week journey consisting of reflections, prayers, and practical exercises. Through thematically organized chapters, the reader is guided through key dimensions of fatherhood—ranging from building a personal relationship with God as Father, to developing emotional stability and maturity, and actively participating in the upbringing of children and supporting one’s spouse. Beller’s writing style is characterized by simple, direct, and encouraging language, enriched with real-life examples and concrete advice. This work remains a valuable resource for personal spiritual growth, family prayer, and use within men’s or family-oriented prayer groups.
