The Illinois Family Spotlight podcast will highlight a specific cultural or political issue of which our listeners should be aware. Our discussions will be informed by a biblical worldview that will help expose the lies and distortions promulgated within secular culture. We will be interviewing policy experts and scholars whose knowledge and insights will help listeners form a wiser worldview.
In this episode, Monte Larrick converses with David Shestokas about how pro-life activists in Illinois have been targeted by a candidate of the Cook County State’s Attorney position, about the general election coming up, and much more.
