In this three-and-a-half minute audio clip, Randy Alcorn addresses the question, "Should church leaders speak out about abortificent effects of the birth control pill?"
Yes. In the three decades I’ve been involved in the prolife movement, I have never once heard someone make the claim that evangelicals mobilized in direct response to Roe v. Wade. On the contrary, many of us have publicly bemoaned the fact that we did NOT do so. We were several years late coming out of the gates.
I did a phone interview for a film called The Life Project, produced by Verite Studios. Our office received 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.
What is a quality prolife online ministry geared toward youth you would recommend?
www.Abort73.com Spend half an hour poking around this website and I think you’ll be amazed at how thoughtfully done and effective it is. They target high school and college age, and reach young people in ways most prolife websites won’t. I can vouch for founder Michael Spielman and others I’ve met from their group. The organization behind abort73 is called Loxafamosity Ministries. Specific info about them and their beliefs at http://www.abort73.com/about_us/. I like even the way they state their beliefs, in a youth-friendly way.

Over the years I’ve often been told that human life issues, such as abortion and euthanasia, are not what the church of Jesus Christ is to be about.
