Al opens up about a decades-old mistake, a tearful apology, and the lesson that changed how he approaches life, faith, and ministry. Al shares:  His family\u2019s story of life \u2014 how his mother Kay was only 16 when she became pregnant with him, shaping his lifelong passion for protecting and celebrating life. Lisa\u2019s story of an unplanned pregnancy and redemption \u2014 and how their ministry now helps other women make better choices through community, grace, and support. A painful moment of conviction \u2014 when Al realized he had enforced a church policy that denied a baby blessing to an unwed mother, and how God led him to embrace grace instead of shame. Why grace works \u2014 how churches can move from punitive approaches to welcoming young women and their babies, offering showers, support, and a true \u201cwelcome home.\u201d Legacy &amp;amp; urgency \u2014 after losing his father Phil Robertson, Al reflects on passing down faith and values to future generations.  He closes by encouraging churches to become a place where women in unplanned pregnancies can be brave, choose life, and experience God\u2019s kindness.
