I mean, I talk to them, but first of all, I just try to model the life that I want them to live.
And I try to model kindness and love, and I teach them to respect their neighbor.
And they learn about the faith.
They're sitting there listening to their dad preach.
They're not impressed.
It's in those quiet moments when I'm sitting with my daughter and my son, as my parents did with me right before bedtime, when I read the stories of our faith to them, and we pray together, and you hope that in the midst of that situation,
They get it.
They catch it.
I think they're more likely to catch it than me giving it to them.
And so I try to live my life in a way that they catch what gives their dad hope, even in a dark moment like this.
