Chapter 3: Spiritual Generation

1. How does God's command to "increase and multiply" manifest itself in your life in the non-biological sense? (page 57)

2. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church (2337) "chastity means the successful integration of sexuality within the person and thus the inner unity of man in his bodily and spiritual being. Sexuality, in which man's belonging to the bodily and biological world is expressed, becomes personal and truly human when it is integrated into the relationship of one person to another, in the complete and lifelong mutual gift of a man and a woman. The virtue of chastity therefore involves the integrity of the person and the integrality of the gift." How is chastity a source of "fire" in your marriage? (page 60)

3. As parents, we have the "power and duty to foster the vocation" of our child(ren). What practical means does this entail in your home? (pages 61, 67-72)

4. How do we invite others, especially non-believers in our own family, to embrace the faith? (page 63)

5. Sheen calls meditation the "self-denial that carries from the heart the dead things of the world." How have you seen this type of prayer bear fruit in your life? (page 67)

6. How can we help our child(ren) hear the voice of God, do good works and avoid sin? (page 70)

7. Do you have any success stories of "reform" either of yourself or your child(ren)? (page 71)
