The Founder of Action Chapel International, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams has adviced parents especially fathers based on his experience in raising his children.
In a sermon during a Sunday service, the Archbishop admitted that he was an absentee father even though he provided all the children needed.
In a video which has gone viral, he said that he never made time for his children even though he loved them he did not understand that he needed to be physically and emotionally present as well. He was focused on providing for them and doing God’s work.

However, the revered man of God said he realised his flaws as he matured. He noticed that a void had been created but only one thing can fill it.
“Nothing can fill that void but the love of a father and it’s taken a lot of work to try and bridge that gap.”
Duncan-Williams’ advice to parents
Using his experience Archbishop Duncan-Williams said parents must make time for their children because they cannot be replaced.
He argued that one can replace the spouse but not the children they brought forth.
“I know you mean well and I know you love your kids and you got to provide for them. But in the midst of fighting for everything to provide for them make a little time every now and then to bond with them.”
“Because if you don’t bond with them there will come a time and there will be such a vacuum between you and them that it will take a lot to fill…Make time, connect with them right now because a time may come when it will be too late and it will only take divine intervention to bridge the gap.”
