In this episode of Family Matters, Simon talks Aaron DiPietro from Florida Family Voice – a leading advocacy and policy organisation that is “fighting for life, marriage, family, and liberty.”
Aaron discusses their extensive advocacy work in Florida, the State’s pro-family policies, and its reputation as a ‘free state’ under Governor Ron DeSantis.
DiPietro elaborates on significant legislative victories, such as the Heartbeat Protection Act, protecting minors from gender reassignment surgeries, defending parental rights in education, and safeguarding children from the harms of social media and adult content. The conversation underscores the necessity of balancing grace and truth in civic engagement and the vital role of churches in advocating for biblical values.
Additionally, Simon and Aaron talk about the comparisons between Florida and New Zealand’s handling of similar social issues, highlighting the challenges and successes in promoting family-friendly policies. #familymatters #FamilyFirst #FamilyFirstNZ
