| 0:00.0 | This is Thinking in Public, a program dedicated to intelligent conversation about frontline theological |
| 0:07.0 | and cultural issues with the people who are shaping them. I'm Albert Moller, your host and president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. |
| 0:15.0 | Katie Faust is the founder and president of the Children's Rights Organization, Them Before Us, |
| 0:21.0 | which is dedicated to defending children's rights around the world. Her writing has been featured |
| 0:25.6 | in such publications as First Things, USA Today, and the American Conservative. Her book, Them |
| 0:31.4 | Before Us, Why We Need a Global Children's Rights Movement, was a topic of a previous conversation. |

| 1:28.6 | and say, come on, this is the time. And virtually nobody responded that way. It was such an |
| 1:33.5 | encouragement when almost everybody that I went to said, yes, it has been too long. Let God's people |
| 1:39.7 | arise and build. And you're one of the first builders that got in on this project with us. So thank you. |
| 1:45.7 | Well, I appreciate the opportunity to work with you in this. And I obviously believe wholeheartedly |
| 1:50.8 | in this cause. And we're going to get to talk about it today. And I think a lot of people will be |
