| 0:00.0 | We're not just a family like ministry that just says family needs to be better or whatever. |
| 0:04.3 | We're trying to signal that there's something like foundationally wrong with the way we even |
| 0:08.9 | think about family. |
| 0:14.5 | What's up guys? |
| 0:15.3 | Welcome to another five-minute fatherhood. |
| 0:16.9 | So I don't know if you guys know who Peter Thiel is. |
| 0:19.5 | He is a famous tech venture capitalist and invested in Facebook. He's also a really professing Christian. He wrote an incredible book called Zero to One. And he has this question. And I wanted, Jeff, if you get your take on this, because I have not been able to stop thinking about this question ever since I heard it. In every interview and almost every |
| 0:40.7 | conversation Peter Thiel has with somebody, he asked them, tell me something that is true |
| 0:45.2 | that almost nobody agrees with you on. And I love this question. And I think what Peter |

| 1:09.5 | or the school system or any |
| 1:11.4 | the family or any systemic problem in the world can be rooted back to the fact that we all have |
| 1:17.1 | collectively agreed on something that's actually not true. And so what happens is people have |
| 1:21.9 | these weird, intuitive, instinctual, or sometimes biblical insights where they're like, oh, what if this is true? And they are, |
| 1:31.3 | they are holding in their hands in that moment the key to disabusing all of us of this lie that we've |
| 1:39.0 | been believing. And so there's probably nothing more fun to talk to somebody else about than what is that thing that you believe that nobody else agrees with. And I want to bring this up in this context because in family teams, you know, one thing is unique about what we're trying to sort of suggest to the Christian world is really a truth that that until we've been really trying to articulate it, |
| 2:02.8 | nobody agreed with us on, right? We're not just a family like ministry that just says, |
