| 0:00.0 | This is Molly Hemingway, encouraging you to listen to my favorite podcast, issues, etc. |
| 0:07.3 | Every day you get in-depth interviews with host Todd Wilkin asking expert guests, substantive, thought-provoking questions on all of the important news and issues of our day. |
| 0:18.7 | The expert guests are in culture, law, ethics, philosophy, theology, |
| 0:23.1 | and apologetics. Expert guests? Expansive topics. Always extolling Christ. Issues, etc. Many believe it's too late. |
| 0:41.9 | It's been more than a decade since the Obergefell decision made same-sex marriage legal, well, nationwide. |
| 0:50.5 | What kind of damage has that decision done, especially when it comes to the lives of children, and can it be overturned? |
| 0:59.1 | Welcome back to Issues, Et cetera. I'm Todd Wilkin, joining us to talk about a campaign to overturn the Supreme Court's Obergefell decision by prioritizing children's rights. |
| 1:08.7 | Katie Faust, a married mother of four children in Seattle, |
| 1:11.4 | founder and director of the Children's Rights Organization, Them Before Us, |

| 1:40.2 | Well, I agree that it's impossible if we've tried it the way we've always done it. |
| 1:46.1 | And we're going to do something very, very different here. |
| 1:48.8 | I think that President Trump, just like most Americans, if you ask them, do you support gay marriage? |
| 1:55.0 | They'd say, yeah, sure, because I like gay people and I love my gay family and friends. |
| 1:59.8 | But if you ask them a different question, |
| 2:01.6 | which is, do children need their mother and father? I think everybody, including President Trump, |
| 2:07.6 | would say, well, of course children need their mother and father. That's what we're going to do. |
