This special bonus episode features author, filmmaker, artist and activist Frank Schaeffer, son of Francis Schaeffer–the hugely influential intellectual evangelical and anti-abortion activist.
Frank, along with his famous father, helped to launch the evangelical anti-abortion movement back in the 1970s and 80s with their film series “Whatever Happened to the Human Race?”
