The hardest conversations to have often aren’t with strangers, but with our own family, especially when it comes to hot-button issues like a woman’s right to an elective abortion. In this podcast, mama bear Jennifer DeFrates chats with host Amy Davison on how to speak with truth and grace on the subject of abortion rights. Here, Jennifer shares her own background going from pro-choice to pro-life. She and Amy then engage challenges like if abortion has a psychological fall-out, whether overturning Roe violates the autonomy of women, and more. With each challenge Jennifer provides questions to ask to help nurture thoughtful engagement to pro-choice views as well as resources for further study.
Given the nature of this topic, this podcast is best suited teens and adults.
