In twenty–six short meditations, readers are invited to experience the joy of knowing the God who lavishes His love on His adopted children. His scripture expositions are clear, his illustrations sparkle, and his plentiful quotations draw on the treasures of Reformed writers who have thought deeply about God’s fatherly love and care for His dear children.
Charles M. Wingard, Associate Professor of Practical Theology and Dean of Students, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi
Charley Chase not only writes about the love of God, he lives his message day by day. It is an honor and privilege to sit at his feet via Good, Good Father and learn from one who has such a strong grasp of a truth we all need to experience, regardless of how much we have read and heard about it before.
Chip Miller , Senior Pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Macon, Georgia
Of all his many talents, Charley’s greatest gift is the ability to uplift a fellow traveler with a well–timed word of encouragement and a reminder that God is, indeed, good. That rare gift is on full display here, offering readers comfort and reminding them of the amazing grace God offers His children.

Dr. Charley Chase, my beloved pastor, has a heart like the heart of Jesus, pointing us to the treasures found in enjoying God as Father. He has a winsome way of conveying rich truths, and I am so grateful for Good, Good Father. It is a valuable resource for any believer who desires to grow in the abundant life.
Ellen Blake , Host of A Moon in the Dark podcast Author of A Light Shines in Darkness
In Good, Good Father, Dr. Chase sits down beside you and looks into your eyes; and out of an encyclopaedic grasp of the Bible, with the passion of a dear friend, the calm assurance of an old sage, and the humor of innumerable anecdotes – spun from the porch chair, Charley assures you that God is good every day, all day. He reminds you that God is your Father and that He means to be your Father just as He is the Father of Jesus.

Reading this book has flooded my soul with praise and adoration and makes me press toward knowing and enjoying my heavenly Father more as the Good, Good Father that He is to me in Christ.
John Owen Butler, Pastor, Lebanon Presbyterian Church, Abbeville, South Carolina
Dr. Chase writes with a flare that makes this book a page–turner. But more than that, he makes us glad that the Sovereign God of the Universe is our Father. And for that, I am grateful to him. More than I can say.
Derek W. H. Thomas, Chancellor’s Professor, Reformed Theological Seminary; Teaching Fellow, Ligonier Ministries
Through this book, C.L Chase has provided me with the missing puzzle piece I’ve needed for living the ‘abundant life’ Christ died to give us. Like a good Presbyterian, I have delighted in the truth that: ‘God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable…’ (WSC). Yet, as beautiful as these truths are, there has been a disconnect in experiencing God as my Father. As my friend Charley points out, ‘Jesus’ habitat was God as His Abba, Father.’ Read this book to discover how to make that your habitat as well!
Cheryl Lutz , Founder at Securely Held Ministries, Atlanta, Georgia
Charley’s book has encouraged my heart with the wonderful assurance that God is indeed, the Good, Good Father of all who trust His Son. I pray his book will bless you the way it has blessed me!
Robin A. Crosby, Executive Director, Campus Clubs, Inc.
Dr. Chase writes with a crisp, clear, engaging style that fills the reader’s mind with similes, metaphors, analogies, and bite–sized stories that both clarify the content and serve as mental speed bumps, causing the reader to slow down and savour what it means to enjoy life as a child of the ultimate Promise–Keeper.
Steve Jussely, Senior Pastor, Lakeland Presbyterian Church (PCA), Flowood, Mississippi and Former Adjunct Professor of Homiletics, Reformed Theological Seminary
Enjoy this thoughtful presentation from God’s Word that allows us to live confidently by the grace of God as revealed from the Word of God in Good, Good Father.
Harry L. Reeder III, (1948 – 2023) Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama
So often our struggle is not in denying God’s sovereignty but in doubting His goodness. Bring your questions and your doubts to this book and allow Charley – persuasively and compassionately – to present to you the faith building case for the truth that our Father in Jesus is always up to His children’s good.
Jeff Lowman , Senior Pastor, Evangel Presbyterian Church, Alabaster, Alabama
Charley has the ability to point us to God’s promises, helping us to keep sight of the love of our Creator…no matter what! I pray you will get this book, read it, and discover God’s faithfulness in all ways. He truly is a good, good, Father!
Bob Hoffman , Head Men’s Basketball Coach, University of Central Oklahoma, Edmond, Oklahoma
… an important, practical, accessible exploration of the New Testament’s theme of the Fatherhood of God. C.L. Chase makes the case that realizing that God is our Father is the key to unlocking greater blessing as a Christian. Read and enjoy!
