Monique and Krista continue to explore issues around the fight to protect the pre-born. They talk with Ginna Cross from Alliance Family Services about how her pregnancy resource center differs from typical PRCs because of its stand on equal protection. We’ll cover what a first conversation looks like with a woman still considering abortion, abortion pill reversal, and why they argue legal immunity for mothers leaves women more vulnerable. Pastors and donors who assume all PRCs are basically the same will hear the questions they should be asking before they write the next check.

In this eye-opening episode, Monique and Krista sit down with Dr. Markus Zehnder, author of The Bible and Immigration, for a nuanced, Scripture-centered conversation on one of today's most divisive issues. Dr. Zehnder unpacks the biblical distinctions between the Hebrew terms "ger" and the "nokri," exposing how modern discussions often cherry-pick verses, ignore context, and collapse categories. The discussion explores assimilation, love for the stranger, individual compassion versus state policy, and why mass immigration today differs dramatically from ancient Israel's low-volume, high-integration reality.
