While following the road map and having productive conversations can be quite manageable and straight-forward when you're only talking to one or two people at a time, things can get a lot more complicated when you're talking to a large group of people (especially high school students) who all have different questions. Often, pro-lifers end up answering countless questions, only to have the end-of-lunch bell ring and realize that while they bridged the gap really well 100 times, they didn't make a tremendous amount of progress beyond that.
In today's episode, host Cam lays out several principles for how to ensure that if you are talking to a group of people, you still make meaningful progress with as many as possible, while also ensuring that the people who are the most receptive are the ones whose questions you respond to the most readily.

For pro-life and pro-choice advocates alike, the question, "What if the child has a disability?" often results in a moment's pause, as the focus appears to have shifted from the pregnant mother to now include the developing child.
While there are countless heartbreaking cases of young children growing up with regular or even constant pain and suffering, it is vital even (and arguably especially) now that we do not attempt to "solve" these difficult situations by intentionally killing innocent humans.
In today's episode, host Cam explores the profound pain and suffering that not only children may encounter, but also by extension their parents and others in their lives. He talks about how recognition of these realities is essential, and advocates for effective and compassionate solutions which do not include killing children, whether before or after birth.

In today's bonus episode, host Cam sits down with Hugh Brown, Vice President of the American Life League, to talk about his journey in the pro-life movement, the important work of the American Life League, and many considerations regarding engaging youth and young adults in this important conversation.
Hugh had a successful 25-year career as a corporate executive managing one of the nation’s most well-known direct mail marketing firms. He has real world experience to speak on regarding the practical and spiritual means of handling the daily stresses that work and the secular world can have on family life and fatherhood.
Hugh consistently writes for American Life League on the most important and timely pro-life topics, and appears regularly on “Trending with Timmerie”, a popular show broadcast on the national Relevant Radio network.
Hugh and his wife Ann have five children. In 2004, motivated by his desire to ensure that his children and other students could receive a quality Catholic high school education within his community, when none then existed, Hugh worked to plan and open St. Michael the Archangel High School in Fredericksburg, Virginia. This co-ed high school has been a model school based on pro-life values included throughout the entire 4-year curriculum, and it is certified by its diocese. Hugh also serves as Head Football Coach, integrating sports with faith and morals.

Are vasectomies really the answer to the abortion crisis?!?!
For many, the answer is an obvious, "No!", yet many pro-lifers continue to hear this while doing outreach, not to mention the number of media personalities who claim that if all men would just have vasectomies, children would no longer enter the world through unwanted pregnancies, and therefore the abortion crisis would vanish (along with the human species...).

The battle for life in Florida is in full swing as people prepare to vote for or against Amendment 4 which would override the current abortion restrictions once a child's heart-beat can be detected, replacing it with constitutionally protected abortions as we've seen in numerous states already.
#prolife #amendment4 #prolifegeneration
In today's episode, host Cam sits down with Mark Harrington from @createdequalorg to talk all about the upcoming amendment votes in Florida and other states which may open the floodgates for countless more abortions.

With the 2024 US election just over a month away, more and more conversations about abortion are being impacted by politics, particularly the politics of Donald Trump. So, how do you respond when Trump comes up in your pro-life conversations? In today's episode host Cam tackles just that!
#prolife #trump #prolifegeneration #podcast
Regardless of whether you're a massive Trump supporter, a "Never Trump" advocate, or anyone in between, it is vital that we ensure our conversations about abortion keep the main thing the main thing: Can we solve the very real, and very difficult problems of our world by killing innocent humans?
In this episode, Cam talks through several strategies for how to pivot conversations back to the abortion crisis, how to think critically about imperfect politicians, and how to protect the lives of the weakest and most vulnerable.

Do pro-life laws kill mothers? The answer to this question has been the topic of discussion by mainstream media in the lead up to the 2024 American Presidential election with the news of death of Amber Thurman, Candi Miller, and potentially more mothers who tragically died after taking the abortion pill, though media personalities and politicians are consistently coming to the wrong conclusion.
In today's episode, host Cam breaks down what you need to know about these heartbreaking stories, and how you can navigate conversations about them to demonstrate that these tragic deaths are a result of the abortion pill, realities within any medical system (including those in pro-abortion states), and at times medical errors.

Personal experiences shape who we are, what we believe, and how we interact with other people. This is true for those who support abortion, as well as for those who do not.
In today's episode, host Cam talks about appropriate and effective was to introduce your personal experiences, or those of others you are familiar with, to help abortion-supportive women and men to reject the pro-abortion worldview.
#prolife #prolifegen #howto
Whether your experience relates to poverty, sexual assault, disability, or any other formational experience, there is tremendous value in both humanizing pro-lifers and inspiring those with whom we are speaking. With that said though, we don't want to weaponize our experience, refuting the arguments of our friends or family by demonstrating that they are not as difficult or relevant as they are suggesting. Our experiences can provide the greatest impact when they are shared to help build common ground, develop relatable analogies, and inspire people once they have recognized the logic of the pro-life worldview.

Central to conversations about abortion is when human life begins, and in today's episode, host Cam takes a deep(er) dive into how to talk about the science of human life.
The first step in establishing the importance of when human life begins is reiterating the human rights argument which includes the following questions:
Do you agree all humans get human rights?If something is growing (in an organized way), isn't it alive?If that living organism has human parents, isn't he or she a living human?Doesn't that make abortion a human rights violation?Next, we'll offer clarifications, including at times tracing our lives back from our current age and stage of development to the moment of fertilization, before appealing to biological authorities and offering a more thorough understanding of the behaviour and composition of pre-born children which comprehensively demonstrate the presence of a new human life at the moment of fertilization.

Adoption is a process which many people, including those in the pro-life movement, are often very unfamiliar with, and Terri's personal experience adopting a child herself, and helping many others through the adoption process is invaluable for each of us to know and understand.

Pro-lifers are confronted with a wide variety of justifications for abortion, and for many of us, we are tempted to either refute them by explaining why their justification is illogical, or to try and resolve the challenges brought forth.
In today's episode, host Cam talks about why we should avoid refuting altogether in an effort to win people while being pro-life ambassadors, and why we should be wary of trying to resolve problems before working through the foundational principle that we cannot kill humans to solve problems.

Better late than never to react to Harrison Butker's commencement address at Benedictine College, and to think about how to respond when famous people say pro-life things.
In today's episode, Cam talks through the importance of researching the pro-life statement (and who actually said it), how these media sparks can be used to start conversations about abortion, and how important it is to connect with these courageous men and women and thank them for the aspects of their statements we agree with and appreciate.

While many of us welcome the surprise of meeting someone who is already pro-life while doing activism, rarely do we know what to do once they tell us they are pro-life; so much so that we often just let these men and women walk away without even a follow up question!
In today's episode, Cam talks through a simple approach to how to engage pro-lifers through the simple steps of:
AffirmationConfirmationMotivation/educationActiviation/mobilizationThrough these four steps, we're able to solidify the positions of those we talk to, while also recruiting new members to join our pro-life outreach.

Pro-lifer advocates are often challenged with the question, "What about when the mother's life is in danger?", and regardless of whether this comes from a well-meaning pro-lifer struggling to come to terms with this crisis, or an abortion advocate using these scenarios as something of a Trojan horse, it is vital that pro-lifers respond with clarity and compassion.
In today's episode, host Cam talks through how to navigate these conversations to help those we're speaking to appreciate that while medical intervention can absolutely be appropriate, the mechanical intentions of that intervention entirely dictates whether a particular procedure is appropriate.
