In this episode, Brian sits down with Benjamin Kraft, President and Founder of Life Advancement Group, to discuss one of the most overlooked aspects of the pro-life movement: helping women find pregnancy centers when they need them most.

Together, Brian and Benjamin explore the challenges pregnancy centers face in reaching women online, converting inquiries into appointments, and ultimately helping more mothers choose life.

They also dive into surprising findings from a recent national study of pregnancy centers, discuss why tracking outcomes matters, and examine where the greatest opportunities exist to save more lives in the years ahead.

Professor Camosy shares insights from his books on abortion, bioethics, and physician-assisted suicide while unpacking why the pro-life movement must focus not only on politics, but on restoring a deeper understanding of human equality and dignity.

In this episode, Brian sits down with Trevor and Christen Polo of Protect Life Michigan to talk about what it actually looks like to change minds in today’s pro-life movement.

After the highs of Roe v. Wade being overturned—and the discouragement that followed many are asking: Is it still possible to shift culture on abortion? Trevor and Christen say yes… and they have the data to prove it.

From college campuses to entire communities, they share how their team is engaging in real conversations, training young people, and seeing measurable change sometimes moving public opinion by as much as 8% in just a few months.

We dive into:

• How their “persuasion model” works on the ground
• Why young people are key to the future of the movement
• The role of messaging, human rights framing, and real dialogue
• What gives them hope in a post-Roe America
• How you can get involved or bring this model to your own state

If you’ve felt discouraged about the direction of the culture, this conversation will challenge that—and show what’s possible when people are willing to engage.

In this episode of Living Pro-Life, Brian sits down with longtime pro-life leader John Pisciotta, founder of Pro-Life Waco and the national initiative Pro-Life in the Public Square. With over 30 years of grassroots experience, John shares how a small local effort in Waco, Texas grew into a movement focused on engaging the “mushy middle” the undecided majority that ultimately shapes culture and policy.

Together, we dive into what’s changed in a post-Roe v. Wade world, why recent ballot losses matter, and how the pro-life movement must adapt to meet the moment. John unpacks the importance of consistent public square outreach from overpass demonstrations to yard sign campaigns and explains why changing hearts and minds is just as critical as changing laws.

If you’ve ever wondered what real, practical pro-life action looks like in today’s culture, this episode offers both a challenge and a roadmap.

What does truly life-affirming healthcare look like—and why does it matter now more than ever?

From its beginnings as an OB/GYN practice in Colorado to a growing, full-spectrum medical clinic serving entire families, Bella is redefining what it means to care for the whole person.

Abby shares her unexpected journey into pro-life healthcare, a powerful story from her clinical training that changed everything, and how Bella is filling critical gaps left by both traditional medicine and pregnancy centers. We also dive into the realities of today’s healthcare system—from rising patient demand to the controversial topic of abortion pill reversal—and what it means to “stand in the gap” for women and families.

Whether you're in healthcare, the pro-life movement, or simply looking to make a difference, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to lead with love in a broken world.

In this episode, Brian sits down with Jeannie French, Executive Director of the National Women’s Coalition for Life, to explore a bold, compassionate, and deeply personal approach to serving women in crisis pregnancies.

Jeannie shares the story behind Little Lamb Resale, a unique pro-life outreach located just steps from a Planned Parenthood in downtown Pittsburgh. What looks like a simple children’s resale shop is actually a hub of hope—offering diapers, strollers, baby clothes, children’s books, and real, immediate connections to life-affirming resources for women and families. The shop also serves as a place of rest and support for sidewalk advocates, creating a welcoming, non-confrontational space rooted in kindness.

The conversation also dives into Jeannie’s powerful personal story, including being pressured to abort one of her twins after a devastating prenatal diagnosis, her work with women facing similar circumstances, and how those experiences shaped her conviction that the answer to a crisis pregnancy is never the elimination of the child, but the support of the mother.

Finally, Jeannie explains how the Little Lamb model is being prepared for expansion across the country and offers insight into how pro-lifers can move forward with purpose and creativity in a post-Roe world.

This is a moving, practical, and hope-filled conversation about meeting women where they are—and changing lives through love, presence, and real help.
