Set the Little Ones Free
Jonathan Darville | What does it mean to be human? Are we accidents, illusions, or masterpieces? This is the identity question many of us have asked at some point in life. And how we answer this one question, consciously or unconsciously, will determine how we value and treat one another. Read More.
Will Abortion Laws Ever Change?
Jonathan Darville | While laws might not change human hearts, they can change unjust human actions. As Martin Luther King Jr. said: “It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that’s pretty important.” Likewise, it may be true that the law cannot make people love unborn children, but it can keep people from aborting them, and that is pretty important.

Does God Forgive Those Who’ve Had Abortions?
Jonathan Darville | You see, forgiveness, like life, is a gift. It cannot be earned, only given. And in Christ, God has freely offered a complete forgiveness and healing from all sins, not just the sin of abortion. Read More.

We are both against abortion and for the orphan, widow, refugee and the vulnerable — and these two do not contradict. We advocate for human dignity from conception to death. Read More.
Abortion Is a Man’s Issue, Too
Drew Ham | A few years ago I wrote an article titled “81%.” The article highlighted the following statistic: 81% of women who had an abortion said they would not have aborted if the man involved had been supportive. Here is another statistic I want to share: 100% of abortions involve a male. Read More.
Pro-Lifers, Don’t Forget to Speak Life Online
Jenn Hesse | As I scrolled through the litany of rants, feeling my emotions seethe with righteous indignation, it occurred to me that something was missing. In the midst of these impassioned social media declarations, I saw few messages conveying compassion toward women and encouraging them to carry their babies to term. Read More.
