  • What was it like to see an idea go from your mind to paper, to the imaginations of so many families, and then see it translated into an animated series? 
  • For families who already love the Wingfeather Saga, what will they find familiar in The Prince of Yorsha Doon, and what’s different about this new project?
  • As you were raising your own kids, did storytelling play a role in how you shared your faith? 
  • How has being a dad impacted the way you see the gospel story for yourself? 
  • Why do you think there is such a shortage of great Christian storytelling?
  • What is the inspiration behind The Rabbit Room Ministry?
