When a woman discovers she is pregnant — unexpectedly — her world turns upside down. It’s like she’s surrounded by darkness with no help in sight. Fear rises up and security slips away. She cries out for help … to someone … anyone. Silence is what she hears. Her spirit is crushed, she feels lost and hopeless … brokenhearted. We’ve all felt this way at one time or another, but few have been thrown into the depths of an unplanned pregnancy without any support. The emptiness is overwhelming.

What does God see when He looks at a baby in the womb? For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. (Psalm 139:13, NIV) What does God see when He looks at a baby in the womb? He sees a complete human being, a child who will become a man or a woman with all the potential in the world. A mother may see an ultrasound image. A doctor may see a developing baby. The world may see a statistic, a pregnancy, or a choice. But God sees a person.

Our culture pushes men out of the discussion of having babies. Once they’re born, that’s another thing, but don’t get men involved in whether a woman should have a baby or not. It’s her body, so it’s her choice — right? Pregnancy is something men are clueless about; they’ll catch up once the baby is born — if he or she is born. Actually, our culture has played a cruel card to dads when it comes to men being involved in the life of their unborn child.

As Scott Klusendorf argues, “Either you believe that each and every human being has an equal right to life, or you don’t.” There is no middle ground. “Pro-life Christians provide one answer. Although humans differ in their respective degrees of development, they’re nonetheless equal because they share a common human nature that bears the image of their Creator. All humans have value simply because they’re human.” (Scott Klusendorf, The Case for Life, pg.

A huge victory was won by pro-lifers when the “One Big Beautiful Bill” was passed, and on July 4, 2025, Planned Parenthood was defunded for a year. This sweeping piece of legislation significantly cut federal Medicaid funding, which is taxpayer money, designated to be used by the abortion giant. The results were telling: Nearly 60 Planned Parenthood clinics closed their doors or consolidated with nearby clinics across 20 states.

35,000 Lives Saved — One Story at a Time Thirty-five thousand. At first glance, it’s just a number. But behind that number are 35,000 unique lives — each one with a heartbeat, a future, and a story that might never have been told. Imagine walking into a packed Major League Baseball stadium, like Progressive Field in Cleveland, where every seat is filled. Thirty-five thousand people looking back at you.

Pastors can agree that preaching the gospel to their congregation is simple. Sharing that God sent His Son, Jesus, to earth to save mankind is the essence of their sermons. However, speaking on a topic such as abortion is not as clear-cut and can be risky. Many pastors express hesitation about addressing the issue for several recurring reasons, such as: It’s too controversial. It’s too political. It’s a distraction from the gospel. It’s not a problem in my congregation.

The death of a brother or sister to abortion can dig deep into the soul and leave a huge gap of a loving sibling that was never known. Once discovered, the pain of abortion can last a lifetime and pierce the heart in ways nothing else can achieve. It’s the passing of a sibling, not just a clump of cells, the loss of a dear brother or sweet sister with whom life was never shared. It’s also the realization of the choice a mother or parents made and the impact that has on those relationships.

In almost every church, there are women quietly carrying a story no one knows – not because they don’t want healing, but because they don’t know if the Church is a safe place. One of those women was Aniela. She grew up in church, attended regularly with her family, and knew the language of faith. But when she became pregnant at 17, shame drowned out any sense that the church might be a safe place to ask for help. “I felt exposed,” she said. “There was just a ton of shame and guilt.

Many Americans believe their tax dollars do not fund abortion. Politicians often point to the Hyde Amendment as proof that taxpayer money is separated from the abortion industry. But that's only part of the story. While federal law restricts some direct funding of abortion procedures, billions of taxpayer dollars continue to flow into programs, organizations, and systems that support abortion access in America.
