In Part 2 of our series on equal protection for the preborn, Alisa sits down with Ginna Cross, co-CEO of Alliance Family Services, to hear the case for why equal protection should be pursued now—not later. Grounded in a deep conviction that Scripture demands equal justice for every human being made in God's image, Ginna argues that Christians should advocate for laws that protect preborn children the same way they protect every other innocent person.

Together, Alisa and Jenna discuss:

What "equal protection" actually means

Why some pro-life leaders oppose equal protection legislation

The biblical case for equal protection

Common objections, including concerns about criminalizing women

What happened behind the scenes with equal protection bills in Tennessee and other states

The differences—and similarities—between the pro-life and abolition movements

Why this debate matters for Christians who want to think biblically about justice, law, and the sanctity of human life

Whether you agree with Scott Klusendorf's strategic concerns from Part 1 or with the arguments presented by Ginna Cross in this episode, this two-part series is designed to help you hear the strongest case from each perspective so you can think through one of the most significant debates in the pro-life movement today.

Equal protection for the preborn has become one of the biggest and most divisive debates in the pro-life movement. Everyone agrees abortion ends the life of an innocent human being. Everyone wants to see abortion end. The disagreement is over how Christians should get there.

In this episode, Alisa sits down with pro-life apologist Scott Klusendorf for a thoughtful and friendly debate about whether pursuing equal protection legislation right now is the best path forward.

Scott argues that while equal protection is the right destination, pushing for it today could actually undermine the pro-life movement and cost lives. Alisa, who supports equal protection, challenges his position while seeking to understand the strongest case against it.

Topics include:

What equal protection actually means

Incrementalism vs. abolition

Should women ever be prosecuted for abortion?

Lessons from William Wilberforce and the abolition of slavery

Why worldview—not just politics—is at the heart of the abortion debate

Whether pursuing equal protection now is wise or premature

Next week, Ginna Cross joins the podcast to make the case for equal protection and explain why she believes it is the only consistent application of justice for the unborn.

Charlie Kirk's assassination sparked an explosion of conspiracy theories. Many of those claims, amplified by Candace Owens, have accused eyewitnesses, Charlie's friends, and even TPUSA of participating in a massive cover-up.

In this episode, Frank Turek responds directly.

Frank was with Charlie the day he was murdered. He rode with him to the hospital. He has also become one of the primary targets of these accusations.

We examine the biggest claims one by one:

Was there really drone footage?

Did Frank change his story about his cell phone?

Did he perform CPR?

What does credible eyewitness testimony actually look like?

Why should Christians care about conspiracy theories?

This conversation goes beyond one tragic event. It's about truth, evidence, discernment, and the biblical responsibility to reject slander, baseless accusations, and defend those who are being unjustly attacked.

Was Phoebe the first female preacher? Was Junia an apostle? Can women preach, teach, or host Christian podcasts?

These questions are fueling some of the biggest debates in evangelicalism today.

In this episode, Denny Burk joins me to separate biblical complementarianism from the caricatures.

We tackle the Al Mohler controversy, the real meaning of 1 Timothy 2, whether Phoebe preached Romans, whether Junia was an apostle, and how Christians should think about women in ministry without going beyond—or falling short of—what Scripture teaches.

Is Women of the Word by Jen Wilkin a reliable guide for learning how to study the Bible?

With more than 250,000 copies sold, Women of the Word has become one of the most widely recommended books on Bible study for Christian women. But does it offer a biblically sound approach to interpreting Scripture?

In this episode, I take an in-depth look at Jen Wilkin's bestselling book, examining its central claims, evaluating its approach to hermeneutics, and comparing its teaching with biblical principles for handling God's Word.

Along the way, we'll discuss:

Why it's important to ask what a passage meant before asking what it means for us.

The relationship between the mind, the heart, and spiritual transformation.

Common mistakes Christians make when studying the Bible.

Why context matters—and why Scripture must interpret Scripture.

The difference between description and prescription in biblical narratives.

How our view of the Bible shapes the way we read it.

Practical principles that can help you grow in biblical literacy.

I'll also share several of my own Bible study tips, recommend additional resources for going deeper, and explain why sound Bible study matters for every Christian.

Whether you're just beginning to study the Bible or you've been reading it for years, this episode will challenge you to think more carefully about how we approach God's Word.

What do you do when you pray for healing...and God says yes? What do you do when He says not yet—or not in the way you hoped?

In this episode, I sit down with Corley Spell, co-founder of Good Ranchers, to hear the remarkable story of her battle with melanoma. Diagnosed while pregnant with her fourth child, pressured to abort her baby, and later facing a life-threatening recurrence that left her bedridden, Corley shares how God met her in the darkest moments of her journey.

Together, we wrestle with some of the hardest questions Christians ask:

Does God still perform miracles today?

Why does God heal some people but not others?

Should Christians pray for physical healing?

How do we trust God when the answer isn't what we hoped for?

What does it look like to surrender completely to God's will while still believing Him for a miracle?

This is not a formula for healing or a blueprint for medical decisions. Every cancer journey is different, and Corley repeatedly encourages listeners to work closely with qualified medical professionals and seek the Lord's wisdom for their own circumstances.

Whether you're walking through cancer yourself, caring for someone who is, or simply wrestling with questions about suffering, faith, and God's sovereignty, I hope this conversation encourages you to trust the Lord—whatever His answer may be.

AI is already shaping the way we search, learn, create, and even think. The question isn't whether Christians should engage with AI, it's how.

In this conversation, Alisa sits down with Ryan Pauly to wrestle with questions like: Can AI think? Does it have a mind—or does it just process information? Why does it so confidently get things wrong? And how can Christians avoid letting technology shape their worldview instead of allowing Scripture to shape the way they use technology?

They discuss:

Why AI is never truly "neutral"

The crucial difference between a mind and a machine

How technology quietly forms our habits and worldview

AI's tendency to hallucinate—and why that matters

Biblical principles for stewarding AI without becoming mastered by it

Practical ways to use AI while protecting wisdom, discernment, and human flourishing

Whether you're enthusiastic about AI or deeply skeptical, this conversation will help you think biblically about one of the most influential technologies of our time.

What if the biggest threat behind today's alien obsession isn't extraterrestrial at all?

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day has people asking questions about God, creation, and whether discovering intelligent life would shatter the Christian worldview. But would it?

In this episode, I review the film, respond to its biggest theological claims, explore what the Bible actually says about extraterrestrial life, and explain why the existence of aliens wouldn't undermine Christianity.

Then, former occultist Jac Marino joins me to share her chilling story of what she once believed were alien encounters, including abduction experiences, channeling, and supernatural phenomena. Today, she believes those experiences were real, but not extraterrestrial.

Could the modern fascination with UFOs and "the grays" be pointing to something far more spiritual? Join us as we separate biblical truth from speculation and examine one of today's most intriguing—and controversial—subjects.

Were Christians always pro-life, or is opposition to abortion a recent political invention? Did the Southern Baptist Convention prove that Christians were historically pro-choice?

In this episode, Alisa responds to claims made on The Joe Rogan Experience by Texas State Representative James Talarico, who argues that the Christian pro-life position has no historical foundation and that abortion and homosexuality only became central Christian concerns in recent decades.

Looking at Scripture, the earliest Christian writings, and the historical record, Alisa traces the consistent Christian witness from the first century onward. You'll discover how the early church confronted a culture where abortion, infanticide, and sexual immorality were widely accepted—and why Christians stood apart by affirming the dignity of every human being as made in the image of God.

Topics include:

Was the early church pro-life?

What did the Didache, Epistle of Barnabas, and early church fathers teach about abortion?

Was the Southern Baptist Convention historically pro-choice?

Why did early Christians challenge the sexual ethics of the Roman Empire?

Are Christians making abortion and sexuality the primary issues, or responding to the issues culture has made primary?

Whether you've heard these historical claims before or are encountering them for the first time, this episode examines what the earliest Christians actually believed—and why that history still matters today.

Truth. Love. Justice. Tolerance. Authenticity.

Everyone uses these words—but are we even talking about the same things?

In this Q&A episode, Alisa tackles one of the biggest challenges facing Christians today: the redefinition of language. From moral relativism to "love is love," from authenticity culture to social justice, discover how changing the meaning of words can completely reshape the way we think about God, morality, identity, and reality itself.

If you've ever been told you're "unloving" for holding a biblical view, or wondered why conversations about truth seem impossible, this episode will help you cut through the confusion and recover clear, biblical definitions.
