How Embryo Adoption Turns Frozen Embryos Into Family

Breaking Down Stem Cell Facts with Dr. David Prentice

Love the show? Text us your feedback! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/fan_mail/new] If two million people have been helped by using Adult Stem cells, why are we still talking about embryonic cells?  How do adult stems cells work and why do embryonic stem cells not succeed? We answer these questions and more as we sit down with Dr. David Prentice, a longtime stem cell researcher and policy adviser, to separate stem cell hype from stem cell results, and to name the ethical stakes that often get blurred on purpose. We also get practical for anyone considering stem cell therapy now. We share what to ask your doctor about sourcing, why many procedures use your own cells, and how donor matching works. Then we look forward to where ethical stem cell treatments are heading, including research and clinical progress in multiple sclerosis, stroke recovery, heart damage, graft versus host disease, sickle cell disease, frailty, and even rare HIV remission cases.  If you care about science, medical ethics, and real-world healing, subscribe, share this conversation, and leave a review so more people can find it.

Former Abortionists Speak Out

Love the show? Text us your feedback! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/fan_mail/new] How does the abortion industry shape language and conscience over time? How does moral relativism make the unthinkable feel routine? Why is abortion often driven by fear, shame, and a sense of unwantedness? Two practicing OBGYNs once saw abortion as normal medicine. Then something happened that neither training nor politics could explain away and it changed everything. This week we talk with Dr. Catherine Wheeler and Dr. John Bruchowski about the moments that shattered the “fog,” the cost of facing what they had done, what truth plus grace looks like for healing and action, and why they now speak publicly for life.  If you care about abortion, pro-life advocacy, medical ethics, and real-world support for women, this conversation will challenge you.

A 14-Year-Old’s Story Of Pressure, Silence, And Lasting Trauma with Sherie Marie

Love the show? Text us your feedback! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/fan_mail/new] A 14-year-old walks into a clinic expecting a test and walks out carrying trauma, silence, and questions that no adult around her would answer. That’s the reality Sherie Marie shares with us.  This week Sherie describes the chilling lack of informed consent, the absence of basic compassion, and the way a minor can be pushed through a life-altering procedure without anyone stopping to ask, “Is this what you want?” We dig into what coercion looks like in real life: * intimidation from a boyfriend  * pressure from parents  * rushed messaging from medical staff  * the quiet manipulation that makes someone feel trapped  The chemical abortion pill raises new alarms around forced and coerced abortion. When pills can be shipped, hidden, or misused, oversight shrinks and vulnerability grows, especially for teens and women in controlling relationships. What can lawmakers, churches, and everyday people do right now:  * create safer systems  * take coercion seriously  * build real paths for post-abortion healing and abortion trauma recovery  If you’ve ever wondered what real care and real protection should look like, this conversation is for you.

Choosing Life After A Shattering Prenatal Diagnosis with Wayne Topp

Love the show? Text us your feedback! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/fan_mail/new] A single sentence from a doctor can turn a joyful ultrasound into a spiral of fear, and for many families the next sentence is even worse: abortion is presented as the “option.” Why does modern healthcare so often fast-track abortion after a prenatal diagnosis? How does disability-selective abortion echo eugenics in practice? This week we talk with Wayne Topp about getting devastating prenatal news twice and how our families can respond when fear and pressure hit at the same time. We unpack why abortion is often presented as the default after a diagnosis and why human dignity cannot depend on health, ability, or prognosis.

Why Men Must Speak Up About Abortion with Sean Corcoran

Love the show? Text us your feedback! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/fan_mail/new] A lot of people treat abortion like men should sit down, shut up, and stay out of it. We reject that premise and explain why it has been so damaging, not only to the unborn, but to women who feel alone and to men who are told their grief is irrelevant.   We are joined by Sean Corcoran, CEO of Men for Life, for a candid conversation about men and abortion, post abortion grief, and why the pro-life movement cannot win while half the country stays passive. Sean shares his personal story of losing his child to abortion, being dismissed by counselors, spiraling into addiction, and eventually finding healing through truth, mourning, and forgiveness. From there we dig into what it means for men to protect and lead with humility, and why fathers have a real role in the decisions surrounding abortion. We challenge men to step off the sidelines, tell the truth clearly, and fight for their unborn children while still making room for real healing. If you care about ending abortion, engaging pro-life men, and building a culture where every unborn child is treated as an image bearer of God, we hope this conversation will challenge you.    Subscribe for more, share this with a man who needs to hear it, and leave a review. What would it look like for the men in your life to get off the sidelines and step into the fight? Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2259902/support]
