It is easy to say one is pro-life. It is much harder to actually do it in practice. In this episode, Scott and Todd talk about what it means to be a pro-life pastor today, how it affects preaching, catechesis, and pastoral care, and how things have changed over the decades. Join us for episode 32 of The Crux of the Matter.
