Some times when you are talking to an abortion advocate it becomes clear that they will not becoming fully pro-life (and maybe not even more pro-life) before the end of your conversation with them. Maybe they need to reflect upon the question of whether we can solve problems by killing humans, maybe they need to research when human life begins, maybe they need to consider whether they are comfortable discriminating human rights based on a human's age or ability. Whatever the reason, we must also...

Is abortion appropriate if the childs parents wouldn't be good parents? This is a question pro-lifers are often asked, either by those who doubt their own ability to provide a high quality of life for a child, those who are unwilling to provide a high quality of life, or by those who are considering people struggling with addiction, homelessness, or other life circumstances which may compromise their ability to provide a high quality of life for a child. In today's episode, host Cam addresses ea...

Many pro-lifers have been told that pre-born children are simply parasites, leeching nutrients and energy from their mothers. While it can be tempting to try and explain how the relationship between mother and child is not simply one-sided, in today's episode, Cam explains how to address the underlying concerns which may be motivating abortion advocates, or simply those experiencing challenging pregnancies, to consider pre-born children to be parasites. #prolife #prolifepodcast #howtotalkaboutab...

While many pro-lifers (and even many abortion advocates) have come to accept and embrace the public display of abortion victim images, there are still at least some who question the strategy, asking questions about the impact abortion victim images have on one's worldview, on their likelihoood of supporting various forms of legislation, and most often the impact showing these images have on people's perception of the pro-life movement. In today's episode, Cam sits down with Trevor Polo from Prot...

How do you end a conversation about abortion in a polite way that keeps the door open for further thought and reflection? That's the topic of today's PLG Podcast episode! We've done episodes in how to start conversations about abortion, and usually most episodes feature strategies for keeping conversations going, but what if you need to end a conversation, either because you need to get back to work or school, or simply because you've reached an impass in conversation that requires personal refl...

A recent study published in Scientific American suggests that since the overturning of Roe vs. Wade in 2022 via the Dobbs decision, approximately 59,000 women have become pregnant through sexual assault in states where abortion is illegal regardless of the circumstances of the child's conception. In light of this study, many pro-lifers are conflicted in their response, suggesting that these numbers must be somehow inflated or even else wondering if these laws might be illadvised. In today's epis...

Have you ever been well into a really good conversation with someone who supports abortion, only to have all the rapport and momentum you've built thwarted by a well-meaning, but poorly equipped pro-lifer who interupts you and says something less than ideal?

Cam is flipping the episodes this week and kicking things off with a reaction episode to Ben Shapiro and Tom MacDonald's Billboard #1 rap song, "Facts". This song is a hilarious commentary on modern music, but Cam dives a little bit deeper into why pro-lifers and conservatives can laugh along to what may be a very cathartic song, but one that maybe shouldn't become our mantra or anthem.

Many of the justifications for abortions start with pro-life ambassadors challenging abortion advocates to consider the lives of pre-born children, yet when abortion advocates attempt to defend abortion seemingly out of compassion for pre-born children when parents are given a difficult pre-natal diagnosis, pro-lifers can feel as though the tables have been turned, and that they are now the ones not caring "enough" for pre-born children. In today's episode, Cam explores considerations around app...

While helping a mother choose life for her pre-born child is the most important step for many pro-life advocates, few if any are naive enough to think it is the only step. Once a mother has said, "yes!" to life, what happens next? With countless parents facing generation poverty, the road after the initial "yes" is often plagued with barriers and road blocks, many of which might push parents back towards abortion, whether during that pregnancy or during future one. To explore the reality of gene...
