Today we sit down with professional surfer Bethany Hamilton to discuss the protection of women's sports, her surfing career, childbirth and standing up for the pro-life cause. Bethany lost her arm in a shark attack when she was just 13 years old, and overcame not just relearning how to surf with one arm, but how to compete again and win. She explains how her experience being launched into the public eye led her to share her relationship with Jesus. We talk about her decision to speak out against the World Surf League, which recently allowed men to compete in women's competitions, and the fallout of essentially being blacklisted by them.
