• How did Genesis 1-2 change the way you thought about being a father?
• What advice would you give to parents who struggle to see the significance of their daily tasks at home in God's larger plan? What encouragement would you offer to parents who feel overwhelmed or undervalued in their role at home?

• Why are so many people afraid or disinterested in heaven?
• What did you write the “The Royal in You”?
