Summary
Some tough questions rolled in this week, two of them dealing with family issues. What's a Christian mother to do when her 12-year old daughter announces she's "a bisexual," and the non-Christian father wants to support the daughter in her "identity"? And one Christian couple has differing opinions of whether to implant or adopt out the embryos they created through IVF.
And then, when it comes to voting next month, how do we weigh the personal character of the candidates and the policies they support.
John Stonestreet and Shane Morris tackle these tough ones from a Christian worldview perspective.

| 0:50.3 | bisexual i'm a christian and my husband is. He's supporting her in this and it's caused |
| 0:56.4 | great division. Is there a counseling or legal resources available that I can speak to about this? |
| 1:01.4 | I have questions. Yeah, I do too. I mean, this is an incredibly difficult situation, |

| 1:21.4 | through this talks about how hard it is when they are on different pages from their kids. |
| 1:27.0 | But when you add in the fact that the spouses are on different pages from their kids. But when you add in the fact that |
