Should Women Lose the Vote or the 19th Repeal?

Leah Sargeant was a proud atheistic feminist who experienced a deep conversion to Christ. But she couldn't fully ditch the term "feminism," and in today's episode she explains why. She also shares her struggles with fertility and policy solutions for stronger families, and we discuss whether gender roles are helpful.
