What are you doing on January 22nd? (hint: the 39th anniversary of Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton)

March for Life in Washington DC I just wanted to encourage everyone who supports the sanctity of life to get involved in some way on this saddest of days. There are many opportunities: marches, rallies, prayer vigils, etc. It’s important that every life minded person show their solidarity for this cause on a day when we basically have the microphone (the issue gets national and local attention). If you live in...

Keep the conversation going

Speak out against abortion No one really wants to think about abortion, much less talk about it. And because so few are talking about, it’s that much easier to forget. As someone who hates to be confrontational and is a peace maker by nature, I totally get it. It’s hard to bring up an unpleasant and controversial topic. But we must keep the conversation going if we ever hope to influence hearts and...

An Overview of Abortion in Five Minutes

I recently discovered a new video produced by abort73.org, which is an excellent pro-life website geared toward high school and college students.  I think this video is going to be a really useful tool for pro-lifer’s like us because it is a more balanced approach to abortion graphics than some of its predecessors (i.e. “Harder Truth”, etc.). It  contains some of the beautiful images of fetal...

What is the unborn? A blob of tissue or a human being?

When you get right down to it, “what is the unborn?” is the only question that really matters in the debate over abortion. If what is being aborted is nothing more than a blob of tissue, then abortion is the moral equivalent of pulling a tooth and no justification is necessary. But, if the unborn is a living, developing human being (the smallest, most helpless and most innocent among us), then abortion...

Ending Abortion Webcast: Great Training Tool

I am so glad I went through my unread email from this past week! That’s when I learned of the 8 hour web cast going on today by over 30 of the most well know pro-life leaders and organizations. Every aspect of the pro-life movement is covered including topics such as “The Case for Life”, “The Abortion Crisis”, “Planned Parenthood’s Abortion Empire”, “Pro-life...

Are you following the healthcare reform debate regarding tax payer funded abortions?

Pro choice Democrats are claiming that pro life Democrats like Bart Stupak, are making a straw man claim about tax payer funded abortion. Pro choice Dems are insisting that the current health care reform bill will not allow any federal funds to go toward abortion (whether in abortion services or insurance policies that cover abortion) and therefore, the Stupak Amendment (which would ensure this) is completely...

Tax-payer funded abortion: Setting the record straight on the Stupak Amendment

As usual, there is a lot of misinformation flying around about the Stupak Amendment, so I went straight to the source to find out what the amendment actually says and does. Here are direct quotes from Rep. Stupak: “Under the amendment, individuals receiving federal subsidies for health care coverage are prohibited from using those subsidies to pay for abortions or to purchase insurance policies that cover...

A new paradigm for the pro-life movement

There can be no doubt that the last 50 years we have seen an enormous cultural shift from the Judeo-Christian world-view to a post-modern, post-Western cultural consciousness that completely denies absolute or objective truth. In his article, Transforming Culture: Christian Truth Confronts Post-Christian America, Dr. Albert Mohler Jr., President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, declares “moral...
