Bob's friendship with Uganda — and his eventual role as Ugandan consul — is one of the most remarkable threads in the book. This chapter invites you to consider what happens when love moves toward the world's hardest places.

Discussion Questions

7 questions

1.How did Bob's relationship with Uganda begin, and what did it grow into? What does the arc of that story say about the nature of love when it is given consistently over time?

2.Bob did not go to Uganda with a program or a plan — he went with a relationship. How does that "relationship first" approach compare to more common models of charitable or mission work? What are its strengths and weaknesses?

3.The fact that Bob became the Ugandan consul is almost unbelievable — but it grew organically from genuine friendship. What does this story suggest about what is possible when love is patient, consistent, and un-strategic?

4.Many of us feel called to "make a difference" in the world but are paralyzed by the scale of global need. How does Bob's Uganda story reframe the starting point — not with a strategy but with a single friendship?

5.Bob's love for Uganda eventually led him into legal advocacy for children in conflict with the law. Love, in his hands, became justice. Where in your own context might love — if pursued long enough and deeply enough — become justice?
