New Initiative Inspires Pastors to Advance the Pro-Life Cause

Posted on by

With many branches of the pro-life movement, it is important to recognize the ways we can work together utilizing our various strengths to achieve the ultimate goal: to make abortion unwanted today and unthinkable for future generations.

Rev. Arnold Culbreath joins us to discuss a new initiative for pastors nationwide. He expands upon the Jeremiah 1:5 project’s goals to increase awareness of abortion and its impact on the black community, to decrease the favorability of abortion, and to reduce the number of abortion providers and the number of abortions in the black community.

Pro-Life Redemption

Posted on by

Lisa Searle is currently a Healthcare Team Manager for Heartbeat’s Medical Impact team and the Abortion Pill Rescue Network, but she didn’t start out in the pro-life movement. In fact, Lisa’s work as a nurse first led her to work in an abortion clinic, even handing out the abortion pill, for many years until she realized that God was trying to intervene in her life. Listen as Betty McDowell speaks with Lisa about that journey, and how she was led to her current pro-life convictions.

What I Wish My Church Would Ask

Posted on by

Abortion is a very deep and sensitive topic – one that many churches avoid speaking about from the pulpit. However, abortion tends to be a symptom of something much deeper in women, so it is an important topic that should not be overlooked. There are very effective ways to approach this topic along with providing practical resources for those within the church community directly. Betty McDowell, Heartbeat International’s Vice President of Ministry Services, hosts a panel discussion about nurturing and educating church communities while remaining compassionate and helpful.
