It seems like a cliché to say that this is the most important election in our lifetime. But it feels like that right now. Here are a few different things I think are at stake in 2024, of importance to those who share a Biblical worldview..

In April, we introduced you to EveryLife Diapers– the only pro-life diaper company. Unfortunately, major diaper companies such as Huggies, Pampers, Luvs, Honest, and others are regular donors to Planned Parenthood, the leading abortion mill in the United States.

Thanks to Illinois Family Action for distributing an important article concerning the three upcoming Illinois Ballot Initiatives. I would like to add a few more biblical ideas to consider before voting on one of the ballot questions...

The final chapter of the book of Hebrews gives an important command to believers... This command has been vital throughout the last two thousand years of church history. Today, ministries like Voice of the Martyrs and Open Doors help equip believers to be aware of the threats and suffering our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world still face.

Last time, we explored a simple way to show someone that "pro-life except for rape and incest" is not really pro-life. Just ask him if the same circumstance that he thinks justifies abortion would also justify the killing of a two-year-old.

Last time, we discussed the reason why you cannot be "pro-life except for rape and incest." This is because, if you believe that circumstances of conception can be more significant than the innate value of the baby's life, then you really do not value the baby's life according to its true nature. Life is an inestimably valuable gift from God.

As I’ve worked in pro-life ministry and talked with many people about abortion, I've noticed that the basic positions on the matter tend to fall into three main groups. On one side, I hear shouts of "my body, my choice!" and "abortion is healthcare!"

Whether motivated by a concern for public image or other various emasculating considerations, the mainstream pro-life movement has often shied away from endorsing the logical conclusion of its whole position: If the unborn are people, then killing them is murder, and thus those who kill them should receive legal repercussions.

Vice Presidential candidate J.D. Vance found himself in trouble when he said that our nation was being run by “a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable with their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.” That was likely not the most gentlemanly thing to say. 

Fetal personhood laws could also impact contraception access, given that some members of the anti-abortion movement argue that IUDs and the emergency contraception Plan B can prevent the implantation of a fertilized egg and violate personhood, explains Mary Ziegler, an abortion law historian at the University of California, Davis, School of Law.

DINKs are couples who have “taken over social media,” according to Christian podcast host and 2024 Illinois Family Institute banquet speaker Allie Beth Stuckey. Other thoughtful commentators like Steve Deace recently analyzed the DINK group and went so far as to ask if this group would be the death of the U.S.! Increasingly we are hearing of and learning more about this present and deeply disturbing demographic challenge of childless adults. How ought Christians think of and respond to this trend?

For all that Dobbs did for the fight for life, there's one issue that it conspicuously avoided—whether the unborn are in fact human persons. Dobbs repeatedly made reference to supposed "fetal life," but refused to claim that this fetal life was the life of a person and thus entitled to protection.

“We are Christian and we are German. Therefore, we are responsible for Germany.” ~ Sophie Scholl In January of 1933, Hitler’s Third Reich rose to power in Germany. Being a good citizen of Germany, Sophie Scholl, along with her siblings, was excited to be a follower of the National Socialist cult of youth.

Cheri can relate to the overwhelming feelings pregnancy can bring. When she and her husband found out she was pregnant with their fourth baby, they struggled for support as they had three kids under the age of four and were facing financial difficulty.

Abortion is on the ballot again this election cycle, directly and indirectly. Obviously, the key presidential candidates and their teams differ greatly on this, as do others running for office. But abortion is on the ballot in 11 states that have referenda dealing with the issue...
