Summary

Luke and Gomer discuss how hard it is to evangelize your own families and how easy it is to become an overzealous, preachy, arrogant jerk to your family instead. Luke recounts some personal experiences on how, back in college, his home visits were filled with arguments with his family. That is, until his mom told him he was being arrogant.

What leads us to place of arrogance? How can we avoid it? How do we stop using the truths of the faith as baseball bats against others?

Luke let's us in on the secret around minute 30 and Gomer gives you the best tip possible on how to evangelize one's parents, especially if you are young.
