For many women, it can be hard to grasp God as a father figure, and this can have an impact on their relationship with God. The reasons are many for why these ladies struggle, but for most, it starts with not having a father in their life or having an abusive father.

About the Film He Calls Me Daughter
He Calls Me Daughter is a faith-based documentary. This is a deeply personal and emotionally powerful film that explores what it means to carry a father wound and what it takes to heal from it. Through raw storytelling and spiritual insight, the film reveals how unmet needs from an earthly father can shape identity, relationships, and self-worth. But it also offers a path forward. One rooted in the love of a Heavenly Father who restores, redeems, and redefines what it means to be a daughter.
This is not just a story about pain. It is a story about healing, forgiveness, and identity.
He Calls Me Daughter is an invitation to experience the love of a Father who does not withdraw. He is one who offers peace, belonging, and restoration.
Healing the Father Wound
As a daughter of a father who was not present in my life, I can relate to this movie. While listening to the various ladies share their stories of their non-existent dads or abusive fathers, their words brought up a past life that I have put behind me. I heard myself saying out loud, “Yep, that was me, and I can relate to the Father Wound.”
The “father wound” shapes how daughters see themselves, love others, and relate to God. For me, my Father Wound, stirs up painful memories of emotional abuse and non-existent love from a father who was dealing with his own painful relationships.
When I accepted Christ into my life, I was able to deal with my past and learn how to forgive my dad, but I still had a hard time grasping God as a loving father figure. I saw God as a powerful creator and healer, but never as someone who truly loved me as His daughter.
Watching He Calls Me Daughter helped me realize that I am not alone and that there are many women out there struggling with seeing God as a father figure. This film brought clarity to my pain, while offering me hope for healing.
If you desire healing from the Father Wound, ~ Watch He Calls Me Daughter now on Angel and experience a story of healing, identity, and restoration.

I had some great memories of my dad as a kid but as I got older, & learned more...let's just say I don't talk to him anymore. This movie hits home for me tbh
My dad would always play baseball with us. He taught us how to play. Those were fun times being in our yard and dad joining my siblings and I.
Might have always drive me everywhere and ultimately taught me how to drive.
My dad LOVED fishing. One time I saw him catch two at once. Will never forget that.

My Dad was a very quiet man but he showed me so much. He showed me all the maintenance and repairs on our home, took me fishing and taught me how to drive (I think I gave him a few gray hairs). He has neen gone over 40 years and I still miss him.
My favorite memory of my father is when he took me on an camping / fishing trip. It was just the two of us and he cooked over the campfire. It was a great time for just the two of us.

My Dad was really funny, everyone thought he was a HOOT. We'd watch TV sitcoms together and whenever something funny happened, he would kick his legs up in the air laughing! I LOVE that memory lol
I remember my dad teaching me how to ride a bike, and later, trying his best to teach me how to surf! I never became much of a surfer, but I kept his love of the ocean and still love riding my bike.
As I was very, very young when my father passed away, my favorite memory with him is when he would drive our family out into the boonies... far before GPS. We'd go every Sunday. We never knew what we'd see or who'd we meet. We would stop at every small mart and small shop. It was an adventurous time!
I remember my dad always wearing cowboy boots, even in the hot summer months in the south.
