The Kristan Hawkins Show

One of the most sobering sentiments in politics in recent years is something Vice President Mike Pence pointed out during his tenure – that the number of families choosing abortion is roughly the same as the number of families hoping to adopt. It’s a tragedy that adoption still has a stigma and that the process is often very complicated and very expensive.     On this week's episode of Explicitly Pro-Life, Kristan Hawkins is joined by Heather Mellott, Founder and president of Adoption Finder, a nonprofit organization that aims to bridge the gap between adopting families and unplanned pregnancy.

What is it like being pro-life in the United Kingdom? It might not be what you think. Free speech is a HUGE issue in the UK, and because of that, abortion is more of a social issue than a political issue. Not only are they having to fight for the lives of unborn babies, but also the RIGHT to FIGHT for them, without being stopped or arrested.   Lois McLatchie, the Senior Legal Communications Officer at ADF UK, talks about ALL OF THIS on today's episode! You will leave SHOCKED listening to the stories happening over in the UK for pro-lifers.     Available NOW on: ExplicitlyProLife.com or wherever you get your podcasts!  ✓ YouTube: https://bit.ly/2DiGLin ✓ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2X15zlZ ✓ Apple Podcast: https://apple.co/30ZA8tw ✓ Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/30V0Kfd ✓ Stitcher: https://bit.ly/331EgvL Connect with Kristan:  ✓ Kristan's website: https://bit.ly/3zsv1os ✓ Kristan’s YouTube: https://bit.ly/3IVonKg

To no one's surprise, the mainstream media is spreading lies again— this time about abortion in Mexico. Recently, there were headlines coming out talking about how the Mexican Supreme Court had DECRIMINALIZED abortion. In the US, we saw those headlines and assumed this story was real and the Mexican pro-life movement has suffered a huge setback.   We learned this isn't the case. On today's episode, we are joined by Carlos Polo, from the Population Resource Institute, to shed light on what is, at best, a misunderstanding, and at worse, a large-scale manipulation.   Learn about what is really going on in Mexico, and how you can stay informed with the TRUTH, while mainstream outlets spew lies.   Available NOW on: ExplicitlyProLife.com or wherever you get your podcasts!  ✓ YouTube: https://bit.ly/2DiGLin ✓ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2X15zlZ ✓ Apple Podcast: https://apple.co/30ZA8tw ✓ Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/30V0Kfd ✓ Stitcher: https://bit.ly/331EgvL Connect with Kristan:  ✓ Kristan's website: https://bit.ly/3zsv1os ✓ Kristan’s YouTube: https://bit.ly/3IVonKg

Whether we are discussing same sex marriage, reproductive technologies, adoption, and even foster care, it seems we have commodified children and even weaponized their greatest wounds for selfish and political gains. For example, adoption does not exist to give adults a child. Rather, the child is the client and their needs must supersede the preferences of the adult. Why and when did this change? Kristan Hawkins chats with the founder and president of Them Before Us, where their aim is to center the child in all conversations about marriage and family and prioritize their rights over the desire of adults.   Available NOW on: ExplicitlyProLife.com or wherever you get your podcasts!  ✓ YouTube: https://bit.ly/2DiGLin ✓ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2X15zlZ ✓ Apple Podcast: https://apple.co/30ZA8tw ✓ Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/30V0Kfd ✓ Stitcher: https://bit.ly/331EgvL Connect with Kristan:  ✓ Kristan's website: https://bit.ly/3zsv1os ✓ Kristan’s YouTube: https://bit.ly/3IVonKg
