Vacation + Leadership: A Winning Combination

C.J. Mahaney:

"The difference between forgettable vacations and unforgettable vacations is not the location or attractions. Nope. The difference between forgettable and unforgettable vacations is the father’s attitude and leadership. This makes all the difference. Family vacations provide a unique opportunity each year for fathers to create memories their children will never forget. Memories that will last a lifetime. Memories that will be recreated by your children with your grandchildren. Memories that will outlive a father. But in order to create these memories, a father must be diligent to serve and lead during a vacation. How a father views his role on a vacation will make all the difference in the vacation."

With this introduction, C.J. Mahaney proceeds to outline seven lessons he's learned over the years in hopes that your family vacation will be a God-glorifying, grace-filled, relationship-building, memory-making time together.

Lessons:
1. A Servant Heart
