Womb with a View: Bible Studies on the Unborn Child: Episode 2

Womb with a View: Bible Studies on the Unborn Child  Have you ever considered God's active involvement at the moment of your birth? 

Today we start our brand new series, Womb with a View: peering into the womb at the wonder of human life at early stages, through the lens of Scripture.  

In this, our first Womb with a View episode, we consider the striking biblical theme of God as Midwife.  

What light does it shed on God's character and on our call as his people?  And what about the midwifery profession?  

An article written by Tim on 'God as midwife' is published here: https://www.brephos.org/post/god-as-midwife

Last week the BBC launched an aggressive attack on the UK pregnancy centre scene with an "investigative" Panorama programme.

The bias, and the abortion lobby players, behind it are plain to see.

But how should we respond?

"Woe to us"?

Or "let us rejoice"?

How can we make sure we won’t give up or lower the bar?  

Where do we find the courage to face such unspeakable darkness?

A controversy was sparked the other day when a new cultural apologetics institute was named after a (still living) individual: the hugely influential Tim Keller.  Whilst a number of concerns have been aired by a range of people, here Dave shares concerns of a rather different nature. 

This goes much deeper and wider than just the wisdom of the name.  

Read Dave's blog here - https://www.brephos.org/post/the-keller-center-why-i-m-really-concerned - and listen to this podcast as he explores the issue in greater detail. 

To what extent is this trend responsible for the great silence of the Western Church on the genocide of the babies?

In recent weeks a Roman Catholic woman called Isabel Vaughan-Spruce has been arrested for silent prayer, and a Roman Catholic Priest is facing criminal charges for having a bumper stick on his car reading “UNBORN LIVES MATTER”. In the UK.

What does the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, think about this?

The answer will shock you.

Ever seen a cage fighter turn the other cheek?  In this week’s episode the two Daves sit down to analyse some of their own recent encounters with members of the public talking about “abortion”.  

How does Dave Payne respond when a total stranger says he wishes Dave had been killed before birth?  

Watching bodycam video footage of these conversations, the two Daves hold them up against the apologetics training we’ve been working on together, to see what went well and what could have been done better.  How would you have responded in these conversations?  

This is the fourth and, for now, final tutorial in our mini-series: learning to talk about “abortion”. Do go back and watch the first 3 sessions before watching this one to get the most out of it.

Have you ever tried to initiate a conversation about "abortion"?  Would you know where to begin? How to answer tricky questions? How to stay on track?  

This New Year we're learning together how to talk about "abortion".  This week is our third of these real-time tutorials: interactive lessons in which Dave Brennan teaches his interviewee - and at the same time everyone listening in - how to make the case for life in a way that is sound, loving, and persuasive.  Today we look at how to begin and direct a conversation about "abortion"; Dave introduces a powerful tool to keep the main thing the main thing, diffuse high-tension interactions, and help the people we're speaking with to review their own thinking.  Hundreds if not thousands of people in the UK have had their view on "abortion" changed with the help of this tool.

This week's episode is a little different... We speak with the creative mind behind Where's Welby, Lambeth Fudge, and the satirical newspaper The Abortionist.  Is using humour around an issue like this effective?  

Is it even morally ok? 

 Dave questions George Hargreaves for us and together they discuss the pro-lifer's greatest challenge: breaking through the wall.

Only a tiny minority of UK evangelical churches have ever taught on "abortion".  In this episode, Dave introduces us to his new colleague Tim Lewis, who is available to help churches (especially in the North of England) to broach the sensitive yet crucially important subject.  

Why is it imperative that churches teach on this?  What's holding us back?  How do we start moving forward?  

This one is especially for those who are pastors, as well as those who are pastored. 

Tim brings a wealth of pastoral experience as well as being currently waist-deep in studying the Bible's teaching on the unborn child for a PhD.
