Randy writes, "The Scriptures teach the psychosomatic unity of the whole person—body, soul, and spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23). Wherever there is a genetically distinct living human being, there is a living soul and spirit."

Hello there! I’m a middle school student. I have seen your website and thought it could provide some good information for my project about abortion. I have a few questions for you.

When a mother carries a child in her womb, she is carrying her own child who is receiving nutrients from her, not a random stranger in need of a bone marrow transplant (even then, someone giving their bone marrow to save a stranger’s life would be widely applauded and seen as a wonderful thing). A pregnant woman has not yet seen her baby’s face and heard her baby’s cries, but they are just as real and precious inside the womb as outside.

I’d like to demonstrate that the abolition of slavery, which the term abolitionists is historically derived from, actually happened in increments over many decades, with the hard work of many who opposed slavery and used different means to attempt to end it.

Over the years, we’ve received numerous comments and feedback from those who consider themselves abortion abolitionists. I honestly appreciate their passion to see abortion ended. Any sincere prolifer would be ecstatic if abortion were made illegal. Unfortunately, their methods and philosophy, and their antagonistic stance to other prolifers, are often problematic. My thanks to Scott Klusendorf for this article explaining the problems with abolitionism and giving a defense of prolife incrementalism.

Dr. Patti Giebink is a former abortion doctor at Planned Parenthood and the author of Unexpected Choice: An Abortion Doctor’s Journey to Pro-Life. She was recently interviewed on Focus on the Family. This was a really wonderful interview.

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.
