The Bulletin

More Old People! More Babies!

Rising deaths of despair, the future of Roe, and gaslighting over gas stoves.

The kitchen heats up this week with discussion about church life and right-to-life as hosts Mike Cosper and editor in chief Russell Moore address the rise in deaths of despair and the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Could the solution for our pervasive loneliness be found in resurrecting adult Sunday school? If embryos are our neighbors, must immigrants be too? Is the gas stove really as hot a topic as Twitter might lead you to believe? Listen in and satisfy your appetite with this week’s news roundup.
