  • 143 How Can New York Condemn The Unborn to Death?

    Recently, in New York, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed into law a bill that legalizes abortion up to nine months. How did we get to a point in this country where this is acceptable? The very definition of being a human has been changed.

    What is the difference between a fetus 2 days before birth and a baby 2 days after birth? Virtually nothing except for location. If a baby is inside the womb it is legal to kill it but after birth, it is considered infanticide. Does size, level of development, environment, or degree of dependency (SLED test) change the value of a life? Today on Educate For Life Kevin will make the argument that none of these things change the value of the life of an unborn child.

    Tune in for a very informative episode and learn some way you can talk to your family and friends about this difficult topic.

    So maybe it’s on so great to feel no pain after all. But why is there any pain at all? How could God allow the pain and suffering that we see around us? Today on Educate For Life, Kevin dives deep into the topic of pain and suffering. You will learn some of the reason why suffering exists.

          • 134 Kavanaugh - Qualified to Serve?

            Judge Bret Kavanaugh has been accused of sexual assault during the recent Congressional Supreme Court confirmation hearing. How can a Christian support someone like Bret Kavanaugh with a charge like this against him? Wouldn’t that be hypocritical or at the very least a horrible double standard?

            Today on Educate For Life Kevin will talk about how supporting Kavanaugh or someone like Trump doesn’t mean compromising your values or having to live by a double standard. Christians are often called out because of their support for leaders who don’t fully live up to Christian values. They are often called hypocrites, but is this really the case?
