In this episode Byran and Kerry discuss Byran's article, which explores the impact that Lehi's Dream/Nephi's Vision can have on families. In particular they discuss the difficulty Lehi has as he sees some of his children choose not to join him at the tree. Yet Lehi stays at the tree. Kerry and Byran discuss the ramifications of this for families, and what it may look like in real life. They talk about how this is an important and tender issue for so many. They also discuss the need to experience joy at the tree, even when not everyone is there. This is important both for the people at the tree, but also for those who are not.
