Courageous Voices for the Unborn with Kristan Hawkins

January 31, 2026·59 min·5 clips

One million children are killed in the womb each year, a direct consequence of rejecting the belief that life comes from God.

The opening question is blunt. The host asks what the number one issue in America is, then answers with the sanctity of life and the unborn. His argument starts in theology. Human life comes from God, bears God's image, and has an eternal destiny. Then he widens the charge. Leftism, atheism, secularism, and Marxism are presented as ideas that teach a country to cheapen life itself. The guest moves the conversation from conviction to pressure. She says people need to spend more time, and make more noise, against what she calls the violence and cruelty of abortion. Her main target is the FDA. She argues the agency has not reassessed chemical abortion pills, while the Trump administration still found time for marijuana deregulation. The contrast is there to bite. If federal leaders can act on one priority, she argues, they can act on pills she believes harm women and kill children. The claims come fast. More than one in ten women, she says, end up in the ER with serious complications after chemical abortion pills. Then the water argument raises the heat. She claims chemically tainted blood, placental tissue, and human remains are entering waterways through these pills. Her remedy is direct: the FDA should enforce the Comstock Act and stop abortion drugs from being mailed. Richard presses the strategy question. The ending separates principle from caution, warning that fear of political cost can become a tactical failure. Studentsforlife.org is the handoff, along with her social media accounts, for listeners ready to act.

As heard by us

A sharp, scripture grounded pro life case that favors conviction over nuance.

This episode treats abortion as the central moral issue in public life and moves quickly from biblical framing to pressure on policy. Hawkins calls for action on chemical abortion pills, the FDA, and the Comstock Act, and the discussion stays on advocacy rather than debate.
