Katy Faust: Children's Rights, IVF, and Raising Conservative Kids

<p><br></p><p>This week on the Raising Rock Podcast, I sit down with Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us and author of Raising Conservative Kids in a Woke City.</p><p><br></p><p>This episode originally aired in 2025, but in light of recent headlines surrounding abortion, Down syndrome, and growing conversations about human value, we felt it deserved another moment in the spotlight.</p><p><br></p><p>At the heart of Katy&#39;s work is a simple but challenging question: What happens when the desires of adults conflict with the rights and needs of children?</p><p><br></p><p>Together, we discuss children&#39;s rights, God&#39;s design for family, and some of the most difficult cultural questions facing parents today. We talk about IVF, surrogacy, donor conception, same-sex parenting, and why Katy believes every child has a right to be known and loved by their mother and father whenever possible.</p><p><br></p><p>We also discuss how parents can raise children with biblical convictions in a culture that increasingly challenges those beliefs. Katy shares practical wisdom from her book, including ways to help children think critically, engage culture with confidence, and stand firm in truth without losing compassion.</p><p><br></p><p>Whether you agree with every conclusion or are hearing these ideas for the first time, this conversation will challenge you to think deeply about family, human dignity, and what it means to put children first.</p><p><br></p><p><u>Topics discussed:</u><br>• Children&#39;s rights and the mission of Them Before Us<br>• IVF, surrogacy, and donor conception<br>• God&#39;s design for family<br>• Raising conservative kids in a progressive culture<br>• Teaching children to think biblically<br>• Truth, courage, and compassion in today&#39;s world</p><p><br></p><p>As parents, our goal isn&#39;t simply to tell our children what to think. Our goal is to teach them how to think biblically. We hope this conversation helps you do exactly that.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>How to connect with Katy:</strong></p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://thembeforeus.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Them Before Us</a></p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://katyfaust.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Katy Faust</a></p><p>Follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/katyfaustofficial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Katy Faust</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/them_before_us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Them Before Us</a> on Instagram</p><p><br></p><p><strong>How to connect with Raising Rock:</strong></p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://raisingrockco.com/">⁠Raising Rock⁠</a>.</p><p>Follow Raising Rock on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raisingrockco/?hl=en">⁠Instagram⁠</a> and <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/raisingrockco/">⁠Pinterest⁠</a>.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/raisingrockco/?hl=en">⁠</a></p><p>On our website, you’ll find our products and merch, parenting tools and resources, and a deeper look into who we are and the heart behind Raising Rock.</p><p><br></p><p>On the Resources page, you’ll also discover free downloads created just for families—practical tools to help you raise a ROCK, a Playlist For The Heart, and more.</p><p><br></p><p>As a thank-you for being a podcast listener, enjoy 20% off your first order with code PODCAST20 (one-time use per customer).</p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.</p>

Apologetics for Moms: Where to Start

<p>What do you say when your child asks, &quot;How do we know God is real?&quot; Or, &quot;Did Jesus really rise from the dead?&quot; What about the question at the foundation of so many others: &quot;Is there such a thing as truth?&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of Raising Rock, Elise sits down with Tricia Scribner of Dr. Nana Talks and Mama Bear Apologetics to discuss why apologetics matters for families and how parents can begin equipping their children to think critically about faith, truth, and Christianity.</p><p><br></p><p>Whether you&#39;ve never studied apologetics before or you&#39;re looking for practical ways to have deeper conversations with your kids, this episode will help you navigate some of the biggest questions your children may face. Together, they discuss how to teach kids to defend their faith, how to evaluate competing truth claims, evidence for the existence of God, the historical case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and why a strong biblical worldview matters in today&#39;s culture.</p><p><br></p><p>More importantly, this conversation is not just for your children. It is for you, too.</p><p><br></p><p>If you&#39;ve ever wrestled with questions about faith, doubted your ability to answer hard questions, or wanted greater confidence in what you believe and why you believe it, this episode will encourage and strengthen your own faith journey.</p><p><br></p><p>Topics discussed include:</p><p><br></p><p>• Christian apologetics for parents<br>• How to teach apologetics to children<br>• Is there objective truth?<br>• How do we know God exists?<br>• Evidence for the resurrection of Jesus<br>• Defending the Christian faith<br>• Raising children with a biblical worldview<br>• Critical thinking and faith<br>• Answering tough questions about Christianity<br>• Faith-based parenting and discipleship</p><p><br></p><p>This is a conversation every Christian parent should hear because the goal is not simply to teach our children what to believe, but to help them understand why it is true.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>How to connect with Tricia:</strong></p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://drnanatalksfaith.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Tricia</a></p><p>Follow Tricia on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drnanatalksfaith/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Instagram</a> </p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://mamabearapologetics.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Mama Bear Apologetics </a></p><p>Follow Mama Bear Apologetics on<a href="https://www.instagram.com/mamabearapologetics/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"> Instagram</a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://raisingrockco.com/">⁠⁠</a><strong>How to connect with Raising Rock:</strong></p><p>Learn more about <a href="https://raisingrockco.com/">⁠Raising Rock⁠</a>.</p><p>Follow Raising Rock on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raisingrockco/?hl=en">⁠Instagram⁠</a> and <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/raisingrockco/">⁠Pinterest⁠</a>.</p><p><br></p><p>On our website, you’ll find our products and merch, parenting tools and resources, and a deeper look into who we are and the heart behind Raising Rock.</p><p><br></p><p>On the Resources page, you’ll also discover free downloads created just for families—practical tools to help you raise a ROCK, a Playlist For The Heart, and more.</p><p><br></p><p>As a thank-you for being a podcast listener, enjoy 20% off your first order with code PODCAST20 (one-time use per customer).</p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.</p><p><br></p>
