Becoming a Pro-Life Defender in 60 Seconds

Want to know a few easy tips to win the debate over abortion? Mark lays out a way to simplify the abortion debate known as "trot out the toddler." The hard cases of rape, incest, and bodily autonomy are also discussed. Mark then shares the theological proof to defend preborn babies.

Are Pro-Lifers Playing “Whack-a-Mole"?

Close one abortion center down, another one pops up. For about a decade, abortion mills have been closing all across America.  However, Planned Parenthood has been trying to fill the gap by constructing giant abortion factories in major US cities.  Just last week in Toledo, the shuttered Center for Choice was razed. In DC, Planned Parenthood opened a regional mega-center. Considering this “Whack-a-Mole” scenario, it is hard to see whether we are winning. Mark shares that the real determining factor for our effectiveness is whether the demand for abortion is decreasing overall. On that front, abortion numbers are steadily decreasing. In 1990, abortions reached their peak at1.6M. However, now they are around 1M per year. Along with public opinion moving ever so slowly in the pro-life direction, we are clearly making progress.

Finally, Mark discusses whether he feels building memorials to the preborn are premature since most memorials are constructed after the killing ends. Please tune in every week at 1:30 ET on WRFDam880 in the Ohio area or download the show using Podbean or iTunes.  

As America dumps God, is there any hope?

Half of Americans who have left the church no longer believe in God, resulting in a surge of nearly one quarter of the nation who have no affiliation with any religion. This trend is an alarming reminder of how we cannot expect to win the culture war when the influence of Christianity is waning in America. In Ezekiel 9:3-7,  God says He put a mark on those who “groan and lament” over the abominations that were happening, thus marking these saints for protection and favor. Then God had the masses slaughtered--beginning in the sanctuary. Do you groan and lament over the state of America and the church? If not, you need to stop thinking of church as a fun social gathering and start taking seriously our commission to change the world. The apathetic church will not avoid the judgement of God. Mark spells out what must be done in order to turn these troubling trends around.
