The Case for Life

By the time the trial has ended, you should be asking this question: abortion rights, what’s right about it? You and your child are the jurists who will render the final verdict on whether I successfully argued my case. Keep in mind these are challenging issues. Feel free to request a recess. As a juror, all I ask is that you keep an open mind. You will likely be processing information you’ve never heard before. 

This is a crucial resource for helping you navigate through the maze of misleading information about abortion rights. Without a Christ-centered guide, it’s almost impossible for parents who desire to have meaningful, open, faith-centered conversations with their children. 

It’s designed to serve as a guide with or without your help. I’ve addressed the issues from a pro-life perspective, followed by open-ended discussion questions. The questions serve as guardrails that steer them hopefully toward a pro-life verdict with an immovable conviction rooted in biblical values regarding the moral, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of abortion. 

Some of the frequently debated topics as a juror you will be presented to decide on:

• Her Body, Her Choice at What Cost. The full ramifications
• Are we right to deny men a voice in the abortion debate?
• Is abortion a private matter between a woman and her God, one the government should stay out of?
• An undeniable spiritual consequence of disregarding the sanctity of life
• Rape and or incest, circumstances where abortion should be more acceptable?
• Does uncertainty when life begins support a pro-choice view?
• The Abortion Pill: a frontal assault against the mental health of women and girls
• Are we more pro-infant than we are pro-life?
• My charge of hypocrisy against the pro-choice movement 
• Reproductive rights just another ‘red herring’
• Can abortion be legitimately defined as healthcare?
• The Great Commandment, the Great Commission, and abortion rights?
• Closing arguments: We pro-abundant life is the only solution for breaking the chain 

By the end of this workbook, your child will come away with a clear understanding of the problematic circumstances surrounding unplanned pregnancies and be highly motivated to avoid becoming trapped by them. As a bonus, they’ll also be prepared to offer godly counsel with compassion and grace to a friend who may have.

Whether you’re answering questions from teens, helping younger children understand the sanctity of life, or wrestling with your own thoughts on the matter, this book is for you. The first witness I call to the stand—myself. Let the trial begin.
