She seemingly had it all: she was young, rich, and famous, but, as with many of the people inside of that industry, she was also miserable. She found herself in an endless cycle of shame, drug abuse, and suicide attempts. That was until Christ stepped in and saved her and delivered her from the sex industry. She and her husband now run Love Always Ministries which directly ministers to men and women in the sex industry and people trying to overcome addiction to porn, masturbation, and sex.

In this episode, we discuss the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act that recently passed the US House of Representatives with only ONE vote from a Democrat.

In the debate over this bill, a Democratic Representative made the claim that she was a “Pro-Choice Christian.” Is it even possible for a Christian to be Pro-Abortion?
