Ep 612 | DEBATE: Pro-Life vs. Pro-Choice Christian | Guest: Brandan Robertson

Today we're happy to welcome Pastor Brandan Robertson to the show to discuss and debate the issue of abortion. Brandan represents the pro-choice side of things and gives his thoughts on Roe v. Wade being overturned as well as what he thinks laws regarding abortion should look like. We end up debating the theological and scientific question of when life begins, and although things get a little intense at times, it's so important that Christians with differing views are able to come together for civil discussion and debate. Note: There are times in the conversation when Brandan tried to interject but his audio did not come through due to Skype settings. This was not intentional on our part. We pause halfway through the interview to fix this. --- Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (2:05) How to respond to friends/influencers who have posted on social media, demonstrating they're pro-choice (12:27) Debate with Brandan Robertson (48:35) Going through John Piper's 'Ten Reasons Why It Is Wrong to Take the Life of Unborn Children' --- Today's Sponsors: Chamonix by Genucel — go to Genucel.com/ALLIE for up to 50% off world class skin care.
