This Father’s Day, let’s try to be intentional about spending time with Dad. There are usually so many distractions that keep us from family time. If he’s far away, then make a phone call or plan a video call. Ask about what life was like when he was a kid. What were his hobbies and dreams when he was your age? Think about the good memories and make plans to get together in person again. What will be the first sports game or concert you attend together?
