Friday is for Family

Today is Friday, and that means family time for me. If you haven’t been on your family vacation yet, you probably will be doing so soon. Why not maximize this family time together? Last year, C.J. Mahaney wrote a great article about leading family vacations for the joy of the family and the glory of God. He writes:

“So in this season where family vacations are being carefully planned and eagerly
anticipated, I thought it might be helpful if I passed along seven lessons I’ve learned
over the years, in hopes that your family vacation will be a God-glorifying, grace-filled,
relationship-building, memory-making time together.” Below is the outline:

1. A Servant Heart
2. A Tone-Setting Attitude
3. An Awareness of Indwelling Sin
4. Studying Your Family
5. Skillful Surprises
6. Intentionally Together
7. Gratefulness to God

Take up and read! Access the entire article over at C.J.’s blog, or download the PDF file here.
