Prolife

A friend shared a quote on social media that said, “Banning abortion is banning equality. Men break condoms, have one-night stands with strangers, change their mind about parenthood, etc. Forcing a woman to follow-through while men are incapable of the same physical accountability is the epitome of sexism.” Can you provide some solid resources to help me respond?

Pro-life advocates in Portland, Oregon celebrated a long-fought effort to save unborn babies from abortions in their city this summer after a nearly 50-year-old abortion facility closed.

I just love this story my friend Larry Gadbaugh, CEO of First Image (which oversees Portland’s Pregnancy Resource Centers) tells in one of his recent letters.

I recorded a video for a local prolife gathering commentating on the closure of Lovejoy Surgicenter, a Portland abortion clinic that played a huge part in my life and in the history of our ministry.  I hope this encourages you as you follow God’s leading in your own life. 

It’s been five months since the Super Bowl, but this commercial, featuring American Paralympic swimmer Jessica Long, was by far my favorite ad shown during the game. It was transcendent.

It is simply a true statement that abortion always kills children, and it stands on its own. Believers (and prolife unbelievers too) can unite on this issue.

Earlier this month, Paxton Smith, a graduate of the Lake Highlands High School in Dallas, Texas, set aside her approved valedictorian speech and instead spoke about abortion and the threat that Texas’s new heartbeat bill, in her view, poses to young women.

Retired NFL player Benjamin Watson is husband to Kirsten and father of seven precious children. He recently wrote an excellent opinion piece in Newsweek titled “To Address America's Declining Birth Rate, We Need a Culture of Life.”

I was interviewed earlier last week on Seth Gruber’s podcast UnAborted. Watch or listen to our conversation, which includes some stories I haven’t shared before in an interview, about my family’s prolife history, Frank Peretti, and the Lovejoy abortion clinic in Portland, which recently closed after 50 years.
