61. (De)Theologizing Abortion [Meet Me At The Hot Topic]

STARTER PACK: Meet Me At The Hot Topic

Emily dives straight into what may be our culture's most controversial subjects! We discuss how we were raised to think about abortions and the shortcomings of polarized arguments that often talk past each other. We ravel out the meaning of "pro-life" and attempt to untangle the thin basis for theology among these debates.

Mentioned in the episode: 

• Who Lives? Who Dies? Who Decides? by Sheldon Ekland-Olson
• The Evangelical Vote on Throughline
• The God Committee on the IN2 Podcast
• 22 Weeks 6 Days on Radiolab
