In this episode, Guy and James visit with author Micah Leydorf about her new book, "The Unseen Battle: An Unexpected Love Story." We find out what led her to become an author, the misperceptions of authors getting rich off their books, and some of her criticisms of the American Church. We also discuss the resurgence of interest in marriage and family in the U.S.

Along the way, we discover why Micah believes in the power of story to convey important ideas, about her recent conversion to Catholicism, and why she thinks the family is the foundation of society. She also shares insights from having what she calls a "religiously and politically diverse family."
