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
Pastor Paul invites us to see the Ten Commandments not just as a list of rules, but as a call to become people who honor life and reflect God's heart in our relationships. Jesus moves the conversation from behavior to the heart—showing us that contempt, lust, and dehumanization are as destructive to our souls as outward actions. As we remember the value of every person made in God's image, we'll explore how true life is found in giving life, protecting dignity, and choosing love over contempt, even in the most difficult relationships.
Deuteronomy 19 continues Moses' instruction to the Israelites about how to live as a just and holy people in the land God was giving them. One of the main focuses of this chapter is the establishment of cities of refuge—safe places where someone who accidentally kills another person can flee for protection. These cities are a striking example of how God's law balances justice with mercy. Instead of allowing a cycle of revenge, these cities ensure due process and prevent innocent blood from being shed. Moses instructs the Israelites to carefully maintain the roads leading to these cities and ensure accessibility, symbolizing the urgency and importance of protecting life even in the midst of tragedy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.

Fr. Joseph Illo joins Patrick to discuss Sanctity of Life (8:45) how do the readings tie into today’s prayer for legal protection for the unborn? (12:10) Larry - Why does the Catholic Church take more of a mission covering abortion, but what about homicide...the taking of life of another. Is it okay for the state to take the life of another human being in retribution? Where in the bible does it talk about the importance of life? (20:46) Break 1 (24:13) Walt - Fr Paul Marx...founder of human life international...any country that accepts contraception is sure to have abortion. He traveled the world over trying to stop abortion from being legalized. A lot of clergy and Catholics afraid to talk about it. We need to talk about it. Casey - Every night we pray the rosary for the end to abortion. What are you praying for? A politician to change his mind or the holy trinity to straighten the world out to get people on the right track? I pray the blessed Virgin shows up to straighten the world out. Matthew - Founder of Oakland Co., California Walk for Life...If we can't get out of the womb, how can we solve the problems outside the womb. I believe this has a lot of wisdom to hit...not just for African Americans, but for all people. This is why we see a lot of violence and other issues. All linked to abortion. (38:05) Break 2 What does it mean that human life has dignity? (43:16) Cindy - about 50 years ago, i was expecting a baby through criminal sexual assault. I heard a voice say this baby is good...this daughter is sacred and will do good. She's at the march for life right now! Everyone is sacred and destined to do good. Can we lose our dignity if we sin? What can we do to help fight for life in our world today? Resource: Humane Vitae https://www.vatican.va/content/paul-vi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-vi_enc_25071968_humanae-vitae.html

Who will preserve and protect the most vulnerable people in our society? I've talked about abortion on the #FearlessPodcast many times. This is one of those topics that people seem to confuse between being a personal/political issue or a Biblical one. But the Bible is very clear – Thou shall not kill. These are four simple words that have literally divided this nation and the churches within it. When Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022, the press and social media misinformation was used to scare women. Yet, this “right” has not been taken away and it's not the only option. The decision to have an abortion used to be a last resort. Out of desperation or fear, women thought they didn't have a choice. But now it is championed. It's paraded. It's bragged about. It shouted about from steps at our Capitol. It's become an active form of birth control. Far too many people – Christian or not – have sat silent because we all know someone (whether we are aware of it or not) who has faced this unfathomable “choice.” One out of four women in the U.S. have had an abortion. It's up to the church to show love and support to these women and children through these difficult circumstances and let them know it's never too late for God's grace and forgiveness. Today on the #FearlessPodcast, I'm tackling reproductive rights – one of the 8 topics in my Election Prayer Guide – and why it's so important to know what your state and elected officials' stance is on this issue that affects the future of our nation.
