Becoming Dad is a testimony of God's faithfulness in the life of a young man learning to trust Him through every season-loss, love, waiting, and miracles. Justin Hairston shares how God used childhood wounds, financial hardship, infertility, and a devastating accident to shape him into the father and leader he was called to be. Through every valley, he discovers that God's plan is never delayed, only developing, and that "The Lord answered from Heaven; He thought enough about me to answer me."
This memoir reveals how faith carried Justin and his wife through unemployment, PCOS, miscarriage, and the long road to their miracle children. It is a story of surrender-of learning that fatherhood begins not with birth, but with obedience, healing, and spiritual growth. As Justin writes, "You cannot afford to forfeit your destiny, your purpose, your divine appointments."
Becoming Dad is an invitation for every believer to trust God's timing, embrace His process, and believe that even in the darkest moments, He is writing a story worth telling.
