Dr. Robert Jeffress explains why America is—and has always been—a Christian nation.

Crossing the Line: In Louisiana, faith and politics are at a crucial intersection. It’s a state where being anti-choice is mainstream. And one legislator managed the impossible: He created a law so restrictive, even anti-abortion organizations turned against it.

In this episode, Kate and Jamia test the boundaries of anti-choice ideologies, and speak to someone providing the care and spiritual nourishment folks continue to need in a post-Roe world. Our sponsor, ActBlue, has tools to help you support local reproductive justice groups or abortion funds by either donating directly or creating your own fundraising form.
