Life More Abundantly (feat. Tim Koch)

This week, Michael is joined by Tim once again to talk about a topic near and dear to their hearts: child sacrifices. You heard it right folks, this week we talk about abortion.

As said in the podcast, we wanted to post the emergency number for The National Life Center. If you or a loved one might be pregnant or think you may be pregnant, don't hesitate to call: 1-800-848-LOVE.
