This podcast is about helping dads become better fathers.

It’s for dads who want to make a big difference in their kids’ lives (and be the best dads they can be) and want their children to have a loving and present father to help them.


It’s the reason we call it The Father Difference.

When God the Father makes a difference in us, we can make the same difference in our children's lives.


Imagine being the father God desires you to be, actively contributing to your children's dreams and future. Being a dad in their life story is crucial, and I believe it’s your most important role in life.


It only takes one Loving Father to change the course of a family for generations - and one perfect heavenly Father to begin the process in us.

We will post new podcast shows weekly.

It is our hope that The Father Difference will equip you to become the father you were meant to be.

I have coached and equipped men for 34 years in 14 countries.

Praying for you - Ed McGlasson

  • Resurrection Power For Real Life
    Apr 5 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Mary Magdalene shows up at a grave expecting loss and walks away with a name, a calling, and a future. That’s the doorway we step through this Easter morning to the places we actually live: shame, father wounds, regret, family pain, and the quiet fear that it’s too late to change.

    We follow the Bible story of the empty tomb, and the moment Jesus speaks Mary’s name, we move straight into what resurrection power means right now. We talk about a new beginning through surrender to Jesus, access to God as Father, and a new identity that is not built on performance or broken appetites.

    God chooses you, renames you, blesses you, and gives you an inheritance you can pass on to your children. Listen, share with someone who needs hope, and if it helped you, subscribe and leave a review so more families can find it.

  • The Man In The Middle
    Apr 4 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    The most honest question you can ask yourself on Good Friday is also the most uncomfortable: if you stood before God right now and He asked, “Why should I let you into heaven?” what would you say? If your answer starts with “I tried,” “I was better than,” or “I did my best,” you’re not alone. That instinct is the default setting of the human heart, and it’s exactly why the cross of Jesus can sound like foolishness until grace finally breaks through.

    Then we sit with the thief on the cross, the man who brought nothing to the table and still heard Jesus say, “Today you will be with me in paradise.” No baptism. No Bible. No time to fix his past. Just one qualification: the man in the middle cross said he could come. We also connect this truth to real life, especially marriage and family conflict, where blame and bitterness grow when everything stays in the first person.

    If you want a faith grounded in forgiveness, repentance, and the finished work of Christ, press play. Subscribe, share this with someone who’s tired of striving, and leave a review so more people can find this Good Friday message.

  • The King Rode For Peace
    Mar 29 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    A parade can hide a diagnosis. When Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey, it looks like a celebration, but it is really a declaration: the King is coming in peace. We slow down the Palm Sunday story and ask why humility is the chosen vehicle of power, why the crowd shouts “Hosanna,” and why a donkey says something a war horse never could. If you have been craving peace with God, peace in your mind, or peace at your table, this message aims straight at the ache beneath the noise.

    Then we bring it into real life with a hard but hopeful question: what would change if we stopped waiting for broken people to make it right and we took the first step? We talk about bitterness, family division, prodigal children, and how receiving grace gives us grace to give. You will also hear a story about a skeptical man, a surprising prayer, and a moment of healing that turns anger into openness, followed by guided prayers for salvation and for family restoration.

    If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs peace, and leave a review so more families can find it.
