Addressing abortion starts with discipleship, not legislation. In this powerful conversation, Roland Warren, President of Care Net and author of The Alternative to Abortion, challenges Christians to move beyond politics and embrace a “pro-abundant life” perspective rooted in John 10:10. Drawing from his own story of an unplanned college pregnancy turned 43-year marriage, Roland reframes abortion as a discipleship issue—calling the Church to support not just life, but lives transformed by the Gospel. He shares practical ways churches can respond with compassion, healing, and hope to those facing pregnancy decisions.Main Topics:From Pro-Life to Pro-Abundant Life – Why saving babies isn't enough without also making disciplesShocking Church Statistics – 54% of abortion seekers identify as ChristiansMinistry, Not Politics – How small groups and churches can become safe, healing placesMary, Joseph & Making Life Disciples – Biblical models for gospel-centered careIf abortion is happening in our churches, what kind of gospel are we really preaching?Make a matching gift donation by June 10!View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Free Grand Design Video Course from DNA: Male and Female in the Image of God

You don't see a lot of mergers in the Christian ministry space, but one recent merger caught our eye here at MinistryWatch. That merger was between CareNet and ICU Mobile. We thought it would be good to have Roland Warren back on the program to explain why and how this merger occurred. Regular listeners to the program will remember that we had Roland on the show last year to discuss his book The Alternative to Abortion: Why We Must Be Pro Abundant Life. I'll have a link to that program in today's show notes. But for those who missed that program, or who have forgotten, Roland Warren has been the president of Care Net, the nation's largest network of pregnancy resource centers, for more than a decade. He's been an advocate for the unborn for much longer than that. Roland Warren has also helped bring fathers into the pro-life conversation, in part because of a tenure as president of the National Fatherhood Initiative, a post he held before coming to Care Net. I've interviewed Roland Warren many times over the years, including twice for my “Listening In” podcast, a podcast I did for a decade for WORLD News Group. I'll include links to those interviews in today's show notes. Those links are here and here. Today, though, we focus on the merger with CareNet and ICU Mobile because it's an example of what I think more ministries should consider, and that is a strategic merger with other like-minded organizations. I think Roland has some interesting insights regarding the why and how to make such mergers possible. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. I'm your host Warren Smith. Until next time, may God bless you.
Everyone's Wilson's Daryl Crouch talks about the transformative nature of local congregations in a community, especially as they work together to reach the community. He also notes how when more congregations are planted, it leads to more transformation. Roland Warren, CEO of Care Net and author of "The Alternative to Abortion," help us understand that to tackle the problem of abortion, we need to think through all the contributing factors of family breakdown and social upheaval. If we are to be abundantly pro-life, we need to think beyond just affecting laws. Faith Radio podcasts are made possible by your support. Give now: Click here

With the overturning of Roe v. Wade in June of 2022 many pro-life Americans, many Christians, hoped that would bring the change we long for in valuing life. It’s been more than 2 years since that momentous Supreme Court decision, and Americans, when given the option, have chosen more abortions and more pro-choice laws, not fewer. Roland Warren, President & CEO of Care Net – one of the nations largest and oldest pro-life ministries, and author of The Alternative to Abortion, says the issue is not a legal one but rather a matter of the heart. He and his then-girlfriend, a young Christian couple, were faced with an unexpected pregnancy and encouraged to have an abortion. They chose to get married and raise a family. With a heart of understanding from his own personal story and a “download from God” Roland challenges us to see abortion as a matter of discipleship – a challenge to not just live – but to live the abundant life – to disciple hearts to live and love like Jesus. Also in this episode, there was a time Shawna felt so anxious she locked herself in her bedroom, afraid to even walk down the hall to the kitchen to get a glass of water. But recently, she was home alone for 12 days and never once felt anxious. It didn’t happen all at once, but overtime Jesus has untangled the knots of her anxious heart.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wgnbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you've been around me for a while, you know that I'm a fan of Roland Warren. He's been the president of Care Net, the nation's largest network of pregnancy resource centers, for more than a decade. He's been an advocate for the unborn for much longer than that. Roland Warren has also helped bring fathers into the pro-life conversation, in part because of a tenure as president of the National Fatherhood Initiative, a post he held before coming to Care Net. I've interviewed Roland Warren many times over the years, including twice for my “Listening In” podcast, a podcast I did for a decade for WORLD News Group. I'll include links to those interviews in today's show notes. Those links are here and here. I have gone back to Roland again and again because…well…he always has something interesting and provocative to say. And that's certainly the case today. We're discussing his new book The Alternative to Abortion: Why We Must be Pro Abundant Life. I found this book to be challenging and encouraging and I think you'll find our conversation to be so, too. Roland Warren has degrees from Princeton University and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and he's the author of many books on fatherhood and the prolife movement. We had this conversation via zoom last week. Thanks to Jeff McIntosh for producing today's program. Until next time, may God bless you.
America sees hundreds of thousands of abortions performed each year, and this is a tragedy. And some of those women, no doubt, would not want to have their abortions if only the men in their lives stepped up and made the right remarks at the right time and in the right tone -- in other words, if the men in their lives vowed to be there for them throughout the life of the child. But as Roland Warren says, men have been told for too long now that a woman's right to choose an abortion is none of their business. So the sad and sorry situation has become: abortion is a woman's issue. But truly, it's not. It's actually a religious issue and a matter for the church and a matter for the family. If we want fewer abortions, we need to press forward the idea that women are not alone in their decisions on whether or not to birth their children. And men need to do better jobs of stepping up and assuming their responsibilities.
Roland Warren provides a unique vision for the future of the pro-life movement in his latest book: The Alternative to Abortion: Why We Must be Pro Abundant Life. In this book he explains why just being pro-life is not enough to end abortion.

Send us a textIn this solo episode of Beauty Beyond the Ashes, I dive into a new paradigm shift regarding Pro Life thinking.After attending the Care Net National Conference a few weeks ago as a breakout session speaker, I came away with a renewed fervor and updated language to move forward in my ministry.That shift is called Pro ABUNDANT Life ministry. Pro Abundant Life is the vision and mission given to Care Net by its President and CEO, Roland Warren. This mission gave language to the passion of my heart to "love to live" those struggling with the concept of pro-life. For me, it is to show love and compassion as we share the message of life through Jesus. Roland explains in his upcoming book, that that message is the abundant life message of Jesus.This is profound y'all!!! I truly believe that this movement will be the Roman 12:2 catalyst...transforming by the renewing of the mind.

If someone handed you a seed and you planted it. Then, after some time goes by, the seed grows into a beautiful plant. Would you say, “I created that plant?” No, you stewarded something that was given to you. But God created it. He created the seed and the plant. God is the source of life and we, his creation, are the resource. We aren't “co-creators” with God. This is vital language we can't miss when speaking about life and abortion. It's what Roland Warren, Care Net's President and CEO, and Vincent DiCaro, Care Net's Chief Outreach Officer, discuss in the newest episode of Carecast, Care Net's podcast on family, faith, and life.

So much has happened on the pro-life front in the last year. A man who has his finger on the pulse of the pro-abundant life ministry called Care Net, Roland Warren, will join us.

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, the pro-choice movement has been more active than ever trying to restore abortion rights and access. The White House has been part of that effort, unfortunately. They recently announced funding for a national reproductive healthcare hotline. But when you read more about this hotline, it's clear that the focus is on abortion referrals. So instead of it being something that's objective, where a woman can call and ask questions about what to do, this hotline has defined abortion as “healthcare.” Therefore, it's not difficult to see where the referrals will go. This is the newest episode of CareCast, Care Net's podcast for family, faith, and life with Roland Warren, President and CEO, and Vincent DiCaro, Care Net's Chief Outreach Officer. Let's listen in on what Roland and Vince have for us on this CareCast as they discuss The National Abortion Hotline vs. Care Net's Pregnancy Decision Line.

It's clear that the next frontier of the pro-choice movement's abortion fight is the church.

There's even a website that exposes this double-mindedness. It's called “AbortionsWelcome.org” and for people struggling with the spiritual component of having an abortion, Planned Parenthood links to this site as a resource.

With abortion, our goal must always be to give the most amount of compassion to the most vulnerable. At any given time and situation, this may sound simple. But it is not easy.

Roland Warren isn't afraid to take a minority position. His own life touched by an absent father, Roland served over a decade as the CEO of the National Fatherhood Initiative, where he worked to equip fathers to be change-makers in their homes. While a student athlete at Princeton, Roland and his girlfriend were encouraged to terminate an unplanned pregnancy. Their decision to keep their child began his journey toward Care Net, where he now serves as the CEO of a network of over 1,200 pregnancy centers across the nation offering alternatives to abortion. Roland's expertise and wisdom on fatherhood, influence, and what it means to value life is challenging and aggressive.

When asked by The New York Times, “When does human life begin?” Augustine Fuentes, Anthropologist at Princeton University, answered, “We think we are having a debate in the United States about when life begins, but we are not. We are having a debate about when society is going to decide when the person counts, and not only when the person counts, but which person counts more.” Throughout history, humanity has grappled with the question of when human life begins. Dr. Fuentes articulates well the questions behind this question in our culture. We know when life begins, don't we? It's time that we dig deeper into the unanswered questions behind the question of when human life begins and how pro-life Christians can engage with these issues.

There is “no bad impact from having an abortion.” This is what one church leader explained in a recent denominational gathering of other church leaders. This leader insisted that abortion is good for women, and society, as it helps them become economically empowered—among other things.

Today we're joined by Care Net president and CEO Roland Warren to discuss his pro-life ministry and how Christians should respond to and take action on the issue of abortion. We talk about how Christians should engage with their friends and family who are hostile to the pro-life perspective and discuss how we should view the life issue through the lens of discipleship. Then, we talk about how churches and pastors need to invest in this issue as ministry and why it's a huge problem when pastors think of the abortion issue as a political matter rather than ministry. Then, Roland shares his deeply personal story of what led him to advocate for men to step up in the face of unplanned pregnancies and why this is a game-changer for the issue. --- Timecodes: (01:34) Interview with Roland begins (01:55) What is Care Net (04:57) How do Christians engage with hostility to pro-life perspective?
