We have a great new episode for you all about the command to be fruitful and multiply. As the world's population rate is rapidly declining, there is a part for the Church to play in this. Join Reformed Perspective's executive director, Mark and Lucas for a discussion on what can be a sensitive topic. We hope this thoughtful and balanced conversation looking at serious questions will inspire you to have your own Real Talk on what it biblically means to be fruitful and multiply.
