This is a follow-up on my Wednesday blog about Tim Tebow messing up my plans this week. You’ve heard about the fact that John 3:16, Tebow’s favorite verse, was Googled more than anything else after his victory Sunday.
In his excellent blog, Justin Taylor quotes from J. P. Moreland on the issue of whether someone can be human but not a person, a distinction used by pro-abortion and pro-euthanasia advocates to justify taking human lives.
Last year I did a phone interview for a film called The Life Project, produced by Verite Studios. Our office recently got an email from Timothy Eaton, the director, in which he wrote:
Pastors know that roughly one out of five women in their congregations have had an abortion. Many pastors have had abortions in their families. Many pastors may not have counseled unwed pregnant women strongly enough against aborting their babies. It is a subject fraught with pain for any congregation.
Read this remarkable Associated Press Report, printed last week in the Seattle Post Intelligencer. Then see my comments that follow.
“Can I Live?” is a powerful video from Nick Cannon. I was struck with the lyrics about morning sickness versus the sickness of mourning. I thank God for this message—trust me, it’s well worth four minutes of your time.
Several people have already asked about my response to the passage of the Health Care Reform Bill and its inclusion of abortion. Yes, I am deeply concerned about its effect on unborn children. However, even though this bill has passed, the righteous cause of the unborn is not over. The indictment against people who shed innocent blood is not over. The command of God is not over: “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; defend the rights of the poor and needy” (Proverbs 31:8-9). Be encouraged that the most direct and personal ways we can help unborn ...
This Sunday, January 24, is Sanctity of Human Life Sunday; marking the 37th anniversary of the United States Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade on January 22, 1973. There is a great spiritual warfare associated with the issue of abortion. Killing children is Satan's way of striking out at the very heart of God. If he cannot kill God, the next best thing is killing those created in God's image. He is killing God in effigy.
Today our churches must, once and for all, dispel the illusion that showing grace means not talking about hard issues ...
With Sanctity of Human Life Sunday coming up on January 24, 2010, I'll be doing some more blogs focusing on prolife topics. Before I get to today's blog and video—which you won't want to miss—the EPM staff asked me to include a short word about my book Why Pro-Life?:

I don't often address political issues in my blog, but in light of the impact this bill could have on the prolife movement, I felt it was important to share. My friend Larry Gadbaugh, CEO of Pregnancy Resource Centers of Greater Portland, sent the following email to their constituents explaining the impact that the current federal healthcare reform bill could have on the lives of countless unborn children and their moms, and the pregnancy resource centers who serve them. Here's what he wrote:
This is the bottom line: Abortion must be explicitly excluded from the healthcare bill, or ...
My friend Denny Hartford, director of Vital Signs Ministries, brought this video to my attention on his blog. Denny writes, "Wouldn't it be nice if we could get a clear, concise and persuasive presentation of adult stem cells as being the only valid hope for Parkinson's, diabetes, and other diseases on a popular national TV program like Oprah?"
Well, it happened. Dr. Mehmet Oz, health expert on The Oprah Winfrey Show, appeared on the show earlier this month and during a segment with Oprah and actor Michael J. Fox announced that due to advances in adult stem cell ...
