Pro-lifers aren’t the only ones trying to win hearts and minds. In the aftermath of the reversal of Roe v.

July 12, 2022 09:00 - 43 minutes - 60.1 MB

After the “Leak Heard Around the World,” Planned Parenthood went largely silent. Even facing a monumental Supreme Court ruling that will decimate its core product, the abortion giant spent the month of June tweeting about immigration, "Pride month," gun violence, and everything other than abortion and the Dobbs case. But the handing down of the official ruling now forces Planned Parenthood to respond. To help us sort through how Planned Parenthood will try to survive in the weeks and month...

July 05, 2022 09:00 - 59 minutes - 81.7 MB

June 21, 2022 09:00 - 57 minutes - 79.4 MB

Ramona Trevino didn't support abortion when she went to work at Planned Parenthood.

Pride Month is here. Everything from clothing stores to breakfast cereal to children’s television programming is saturated with rainbow flags.

The Illustrious ACB--PODCAST Season 7, Episode 21

May 24, 2022 09:00 - 52 minutes - 71.9 MB

Justice Amy Coney Barrett should be a feminist icon. She's one of the most powerful women in the world and the mother of seven children (two of whom are adopted and one who has special needs).  But many self-proclaimed feminists hate her--all because she's about to allow states to protect vulnerable moms and babies from abortion. On this week's episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we discuss: Justice Barrett's Christian joy...and why it drives abortion supporters crazy; The attacks ...

Who Actually Benefits from Abortion?--PODCAST Season 7, Episode 14

April 05, 2022 09:04 - 52 minutes - 72.7 MB

Abortion advocates try to brand abortion as a “women’s rights” issue... ...but pro-abortion isn’t pro-woman. Abortion pits women against their own children. It tells women they need to destroy their most unique gift to be equal to men. And it leads to devastating physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual consequences. There’s nothing more anti-woman than abortion. But if women don’t benefit from abortion…who does? On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we introduce you t...

March 29, 2022 09:00 - 54 minutes - 75 MB

Around the world and throughout history, pagans sacrifice their children to satiate their bloodthirsty gods.  This isn’t true only in ancient, undeveloped societies.

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we address that question--as well as: The irony of modern progressives clinging to the most backward of ancient superstitions Why only God’s chosen people ...

St. Patrick, Abortion, and Evangelization--PODCAST Season 7, Episode 11

March 15, 2022 09:00 - 49 minutes - 67.4 MB

St. Patrick went to a pagan land to bring the Gospel to a hostile people. He faced both rejection and harsh persecution. But he trusted in God, who used him to convert an entire country.  Pro-lifers can look to St. Patrick as a powerful example and inspiration in our efforts to bring the Gospel of Life to the neo-pagans of our post-Christian society. Our Lord's call to make disciples of all nations hasn't expired. And as the Western world runs away from God, we need to evangelize through our...

February 22, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes - 80.3 MB

Planned Parenthood tries to brand itself as a basic healthcare provider. But it’s an expensive lobbying and public relations machine, and its advocacy is anything but mainstream.
