Lifeline invites believers to consider what it truly means to live out the Gospel by caring for vulnerable children. Rooted in theology, this calling reflects God’s heart for redemption and family.

Turning Sorrow into Song

Ending Human Trafficking

With less than 2% of the world’s 70 million Deaf individuals identifying as biblical followers of Jesus, Brandon calls the Church to confront not only an access issue but an inclusion issue. Sharing his personal testimony, Brandon reveals how deeply transformative it is to see the Gospel communicated in his heart language—ASL. Watch as he challenges leaders to see Deaf individuals not as burdens, but as image-bearers called to reflect God’s glory.


Breaking the Silence

Katy Faust, the Founder and President of Them Before Us, provides a different perspective on third-party reproduction methods like sperm donation, egg donation, IVF, and surrogacy.

She argues that these methods prioritize what adults want over what is best for children. Katy points out the psychological and emotional difficulties faced by children who do not have their biological parents around. She is concerned about intentionally breaking the natural bond between parents and children.

Faust also raises the issue of potential exploitation and unfairness, as these methods often benefit wealthier people at the expense of financially vulnerable women. She believes that policies should give priority to children's rights and support the traditional family structure and that every child has the right to know and be raised by their biological parents.

Third Party Reproduction

There are 400,000 youth in the foster care system, and yet 50-60% of foster care families quit within the first year, leaving children with deep wounds.
