  • 197: Men in the Pro-Life Movement
    Jan 21 2025

    The show is literally called "The Pro-Life Guy's Podcast", so let's review how to respond to the statement/accusation, "No uterus, no opinion!"

    While many in the pro-abortion movement (women, as well as men, somewhat ironically...), would love it if pro-life men would stay silent, or better yet, become pro-abortion, it is vital that pro-life men not only hold fast to their pro-life worldview, but also speak and act publicly in defense of the weak and vulnerable.

    In today's episode, Cam talks through the straight-forward response to the challenge that if you cannot become pregnant yourself, you shouldn't have an opinion on abortion (though again, you're welcome back into the debate if you happen to support abortion...!).

  • 196: How To Respond: "Abortion Doesn't Impact Me."
    Jan 14 2025

    While many people have an opinion on abortion (with varying degrees of depth...), there are many who wish to remain neutral, at times claiming, "Abortion doesn't impact me!".

    Whether said by someone who is pro-life, someone outside of traditional child-bearing age, a guy who can't bear a child, or someone else who may not be personally impacted by abortion access, it is important to engage them none-the-less, as many don't realize how influential their support, or tragically lack of support, may be for the lives of those around them.

    In today's episode, host Cam talks through the background and tools you need to clearly and concisely respond to this attempt to avoid engaging on this issue which results in the death of tens of thousands of little boys and girls in Canada every year.

  • 195: New Year's Resolution 2025
    Jan 7 2025

    First and foremost, merry Christmas and happy new years! From all of us at CCBR and The Pro-Life Guy's Podcast, we hope that you had a blessed Christmas, and that 2025 is off to a great start!

    Inspired by the wisdom of Mike Schouten and his team at ARPA Canada, for this year's new year's resolutions, host Cam focuses on the importance of building relationships, While it can be easy to grow frustrated when our requests for church support, volunteer recruitment, or cultural change are not immediately met with resounding involvement, it is so important to invest into meaningful relationships with those in our community.

    Whether they are our church or political leaders whom we'd love to collaborate with to bring about sweeping change, our volunteer teams whom we're hoping to further mobilize, or those whom you are speaking to at outreach, change is so often expedited when it interactions start with and build upon relationships. So give it a shot!

    Thanks for your participation in this journey, and as always, don't hesitate to reach out to Cam at email@prolifeguys.com!

  • 194: How to have Christmas conversations about abortion
    Dec 17 2024

    For some, Christmas cooking, church services, and family get togethers are enough to keep conversations about abortion to a minimum, whereas for others, it's a time to discuss and debate the happenings of our world, more and more of which seem to be touching the abortion crisis.

    In this episode, host Cam talks about how to navigate conversations about abortion over your Christmas break, whether you are initiating the conversations, or whether you are being invited (or even forced) into them!

    Starting with the principle of not being weird, Cam talks through different strategies not only for starting conversations with friends and family about this cultural crisis, but often even more importantly about how to manage the conversation in such a way that it leaves the door open for more productive conversations in the future.

  • 193: How to - Manage Large Groups
    Nov 27 2024

    While following the road map and having productive conversations can be quite manageable and straight-forward when you're only talking to one or two people at a time, things can get a lot more complicated when you're talking to a large group of people (especially high school students) who all have different questions. Often, pro-lifers end up answering countless questions, only to have the end-of-lunch bell ring and realize that while they bridged the gap really well 100 times, they didn't make a tremendous amount of progress beyond that.

    In today's episode, host Cam lays out several principles for how to ensure that if you are talking to a group of people, you still make meaningful progress with as many as possible, while also ensuring that the people who are the most receptive are the ones whose questions you respond to the most readily.

  • 192: What if the Child Has a Disability?
    Oct 31 2024

    For pro-life and pro-choice advocates alike, the question, "What if the child has a disability?" often results in a moment's pause, as the focus appears to have shifted from the pregnant mother to now include the developing child.

    While there are countless heartbreaking cases of young children growing up with regular or even constant pain and suffering, it is vital even (and arguably especially) now that we do not attempt to "solve" these difficult situations by intentionally killing innocent humans.

    In today's episode, host Cam explores the profound pain and suffering that not only children may encounter, but also by extension their parents and others in their lives. He talks about how recognition of these realities is essential, and advocates for effective and compassionate solutions which do not include killing children, whether before or after birth.

  • 191: Are Vasectomies Really the Answer?!?!?!
    Oct 8 2024

    Are vasectomies really the answer to the abortion crisis?!?!

    For many, the answer is an obvious, "No!", yet many pro-lifers continue to hear this while doing outreach, not to mention the number of media personalities who claim that if all men would just have vasectomies, children would no longer enter the world through unwanted pregnancies, and therefore the abortion crisis would vanish (along with the human species...).

  • 190: How to Respond When TRUMP Comes Up in Pro-Life Conversations
    Oct 2 2024

    With the 2024 US election just over a month away, more and more conversations about abortion are being impacted by politics, particularly the politics of Donald Trump. So, how do you respond when Trump comes up in your pro-life conversations? In today's episode host Cam tackles just that!

    #prolife #trump #prolifegeneration #podcast

    Regardless of whether you're a massive Trump supporter, a "Never Trump" advocate, or anyone in between, it is vital that we ensure our conversations about abortion keep the main thing the main thing: Can we solve the very real, and very difficult problems of our world by killing innocent humans?

    In this episode, Cam talks through several strategies for how to pivot conversations back to the abortion crisis, how to think critically about imperfect politicians, and how to protect the lives of the weakest and most vulnerable.
