Randy Alcorn is perhaps the most well-known Christian who writes and speaks on Heaven. Yet two years ago, his childhood bride, Nanci, died of cancer.

Sean and Randy both get personal in this interview.

He makes the case for an ethical way of practicing IVF, and I push back. We certainly don't settle the issue, but invite you to consider what is at stake in the practice.
