Wooing Daughters; Serving Fathers

The greatest gift a dad will ever give away is his daughter. But before he does so, wise fathers win the hearts of their daughters. Similarly, a woman will someday serve beside her husband, but before she does so, she learns to serve her father. At this past weekend’s 2005 Father and Daughter Discipleship Retreat, we thought it would be a good idea to take these themes and to have a little fun with both the dads and the daughters.

We surprised some of our dads by rating them on their ability to serenade their daughters — in front of five hundred people.

Our girls competed to see who could do the best job at grooming, shaving, and tying a tie on their father. It was a hoot from beginning to end.
