    Episode 80: Why we are losing the pro-life/abortion debate
    Oct 7 2024
    Recent state-wide initiatives have pointed in one direction. Pro-life legislation has failed. Pro-abortion legislation has succeeded. One major political party has made abortion a central part of its platform, and the other major political party has shown clear signs of distancing itself from the pro-life cause. Why? This is not a top-down process. It is a grassroots effort in which voters' opinions shape political positions. So why is the pro-life argument losing ground? Lindsay and Derek discuss this crucial issue on this episode of The C2 Life.

  • Episode 77: Toxic Masculinity or Perpetual Boyhood?

    Episode 77: Toxic Masculinity or Perpetual Boyhood?
    Aug 13 2024
    God designed men to be the pastors, protectors, and providers for their families and, in many ways, for the entire culture. Modern culture works against that design, and one of the hot-button phrases is "toxic masculinity." In this episode, Derek and Lindsay discuss toxic masculinity and address the question, "Does our culture suffer from an overabundance of men who are too manly, or is the real problem a lack of boys who grow into mature manhood?" Yes--real men are nurturing, approachable, non-threatening, polite, men of conviction, responsible, diplomatic, progressive, and reverent. But they are also warriors. That is not toxicity. It is masculinity.
