    Are Women the Second Victim of Abortion? with Ginna Cross

    In this episode, I sit down with Ginna Cross to tackle the problems with the “second victim” narrative in the abortion debate—the idea that women are just as much victims of abortion as their unborn children. Ginna shares her background in pregnancy health and what led her to challenge this perspective. We discuss why this mindset has weakened the pro-life movement, how it undermines accountability, and why a shift in approach is necessary. We also explore the growing influence of the abolitionist movement, the push for equal protection legislation, and the role of the church in addressing abortion with clarity and conviction. Throughout our conversation, we highlight the challenges of moving past the second victim narrative and why doing so is essential for the future of abortion abolition.

    The End of Negative World? What the Vibe Shift Means for Christians with Natasha Crain

    In this episode, I sit down with Natasha Crain to talk about her new book, When Culture Hates You, and the growing hostility Christians have faced in recent years. But we also dig into something that’s changing—the vibe shift happening in our culture. For years, we’ve been living in the negative world, where Christianity has been increasingly marginalized. Now, there are signs that the pendulum is starting to swing back. We discuss why this shift is happening, what it means for Christians, and how believers should position themselves in a culture that may be more open to biblical truth than it has been in a long time. We also talk about the idea of the common good, the role of Christians in political discourse, and how to push back against the media’s framing of Christian nationalism. Natasha offers a thoughtful, strategic approach to cultural engagement—one that avoids both compromise and retreat. As we navigate this new moment, how should Christians engage? How do we capitalize on the opportunities this shift presents while remaining faithful to our mission? We unpack all of that and more in this episode. If you’ve sensed that something is changing and you want to understand how to respond, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss. 🔗 Find more from Natasha Crain: 👉 Website 👉 Buy When Culture Hates You and her other books on Amazon 👉 Follow Natasha on X
