Prayer, fasting and peaceful vigil in front of abortion facilities are the core of a 40 Days for Life effort. 

But every 40 Days for Life campaign also involves community outreach to educate the public on the tragic reality of the abortion crisis. 

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we review 4 key indicators that prove why YOUR community outreach efforts are more critical than ever. Don't let community outreach become the forgotten component of a 40 Days for Life campaign.

We also share 3 reasons you should have CONFIDENCE in your community outreach. 

Tune in...and then speak up!

When you pray at your local 40 Days for Life vigil, you might see a powerful response to your prayers. Or you might not...at least immediately.

But behind the scenes, your prayers ALWAYS take a massive toll on the abortion business. On this week's episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Shawn Carney, Robert Colquhoun, and Steve Karlen discuss 4 ways your prayers impact the abortion facility. 

In May, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed Texas Senate Bill 8, which prohibits abortion once a fetal heartbeat can be detected (usually around six weeks into pregnancy). The U.S. Supreme Court rejected the abortion industry's last-ditch appeal to keep the law from taking effect. 

Abortion providers scrambled to do as many abortions as possible before August ended. Whole Woman’s Health infamously performed 67 in 17 hours. But now Texas babies are protected.

But what happens next?

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, 40 Days for Life General Counsel Matt Britton joins Shawn Carney and Steve Karlen to discuss whether the Texas Heartbeat Act at long last provides a legal path to ending abortion. 

It’s the oldest, most cliché pro-abortion slogan.

It’s the most popular chant at pro-abortion rallies.

It’s appeared on countless homemade pro-abortion signs...

...but it’s still as popular as ever among abortion supporters. On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we discuss why “My body, my choice” is a bad argument—and one that’s easy to overcome.

Dr. Leana Wen's firing after just eight months on the job as Planned Parenthood's president back in 2019 was a messy split from the beginning...

...but now Wen has a new book explaining:

• Why the Planned Parenthood board of directors put a halt to Wen's vision of Planned Parenthood as a non-partisan public health organization--and steered hard into progressive, pro-abortion politics
• How her colleagues tried to exploit her miscarriage to hasten her departure
• The abortion giant's decision to fire Wen as she grieved the loss of her child

Leana Wen's tenure at Planned Parenthood was an unmitigated disaster for the abortion industry...

...and it continues to pay dividends for pro-lifers praying to end abortion where YOU live. Find out what the continuing fallout means for your community on this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast.

You hear it from Planned Parenthood. You hear it from pro-abortion politicians. Miley Cyrus even had a cake frosted with the message, “Abortion is healthcare” and posted it to Instagram.

But is it true? Is abortion healthcare? Is abortion in the same category and of the same nature as performing a biopsy or setting a broken bone?

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we give you three easy ways to respond when somebody tries to tell you abortion is healthcare.

Americans look at Europe as more liberal, more progressive, more post-Christian, and more abortion-friendly. Is that true? On today’s episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we’ll see how U.S. abortion laws compare to the rest of the world. You might be surprised!

You've heard of the Holocaust, the Rwandan Genocide, and the ISIS slaughter of Christians...

...but how familiar are you with the Armenian Genocide? 

The Ottoman Empire's annihilation of the Armenian people is less known because it was successful. After the genocide, few Armenians remained to tell the story. 

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we examine four lessons from a successful genocide:

1. There's no guarantee we'll win the battle to end abortion
2. Genocide is evolving
3. Some groups face a particular risk of extinction from the abortion genocide
4. If we don't tell the truth about the abortion genocide, more blood will be shed

Hurdler Brianna McNeal was set to defend her Olympic gold medal in Tokyo...and then she and her husband conceived a baby. 

McNeal had an abortion so she could continue to pursue her Olympic dreams. And she's not alone. The pressure of the world's highest athletic stage, college scholarship requirements, and lucrative endorsements has led pregnant athletes to have abortions.

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we discuss the dark side of sports--a win-at-all-costs mentality that leads many athletes to choose a game over the life of their children. 

How do pro-lifers respond to abortion advocates who claim that God commanded the ancient Israelites to commit genocide--including against children--in the Bible? 

We tackle this question--and many other listener-submitted questions on this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, including:

• How can laws protecting unborn children against violent crime coexist with Roe v. Wade? 
• What can pro-lifers learn from previous civil rights movements?
• How can you persuade libertarians to become pro-life?
