Ep 3Questions & Ethics – How should your church approach Sanctity of Human Life Sunday?
“The entire canon of Scripture throbs with God’s commitment to the fatherless and to the widows, his wrath at the shedding of innocent blood. Just as every Lord’s Day should be Easter, with the proclamation of the Resurrection of Jesus, and Christmas, with the announcement of the Incarnation, so every Lord’s Day should highlight the worth and dignity of human life. I pray that my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will grow up in an age when abortion is not just illegal but unthinkable.” As you and your church prepare for Sanctity of Human Life Sunday on January 19, we hope that you find this podcast helpful.
