This week\'s episode dissects the results of the 6th Annual American Family Survey conducted by BYU. Over 3,000 Americans participated in the extensive survey, and the results are conclusive: despite the challenges of 2020, the American family is resilient.\\xa0

The survey covered many items from faith, Covid, politics, and issues most affecting American families. Most of the results are split according to Republican, Democrat, and Independent results. While there may be gaps according to a family\'s political affiliation, the general conclusions show American families are ready for the challenges ahead and survived 2020 feeling stronger than ever.\\xa0

Let\'s not invest in the doom and gloom; let\'s pick hope, faith, and love. We are in the 4th quarter of 2020 and the best is yet to come.
