Compassion-minded Christians often repeat, "No one wants an abortion."  One only needs to Google the search term, "Shout your abortion" to hear the testimonies of women who are proud and excited to tell of their abortion experiences.  This week's episode shares the almost unbelievable statistics on women in Minnesota - possibly the most permissive abortion state - who have had multiple abortions.

Scripture included in this week's episode include:

I Corinthians 2:9          Romans 10:19               Matthew 11:25

Mark 4:9, 23                 Mark 3:10                       Luke 6:19, 8:46

Matthew 8:15, 9:29      Mark 7:33                      Luke 22:51

John 20:24-27               Genesis 27                    Revelation 5:8

I John 3:2

Women who are now aged 60-80 were the first to be lied to in 1973 about how a fetus was "just a clump of cells," that sexual promiscuity was actually freedom without negative consequences.  Now, more than 50 years later, these older women - your grandmothers - are starting to look back on their abortions and wondering if their lifetimes of turmoil and depression could have its roots in that long-ago act. It's time for churches to offer confidential retreats for these post-abortive women.

This is the second installment in PPL's three-part series titled, "Abortion: Myths, Deceptions and Euphemisms."  PPL Board Member Dr. Ray Dunkelberg examines the myth of the mistaken notion that abortion rights empower women, when the truth is that there is a one in two chance that abortion will take the life of a female child.

This week PPL brings you important information to help you develop a perspective on the pro-life dilemma that is in vitro fertilization or IVF.  Dr. Patricia June's article focuses on the realities of IVF and how - as long as it is a social reality - it might be redeemed through the practice of embryo donation and adoption.

Fetal pain:

"As early as eight to ten weeks after conception, and definitely by thirteen-and-a-half weeks, the unborn experiences organic pain...First, the unborn child's mouth, at eight weeks; then her hands at ten weeks; then her face, arms and legs at eleven weeks, become sensitive to touch.  By thirteen-and-a-half weeks, she responds to pain at all levels of her nervous system in an integrated response which cannot be termed a mere reflex.  She can now experience pain."  Surgeon Robert P. N. Shearin

Much is made of a father's responsibility for the children he creates, from financial support to adulthood, to inheritance rights at the end of life.  But what of the man who wants to take responsibility for his children, but is denied that right by an abortion-minded partner? And what of the man who pressures his pregnant partner to abort, only to experience guilt afterward?  Listen to this episode to get important food for thought.

Baby Chris has nothing to do with his own development. There is nothing the unborn child can do that results in self-determination - he just "shows up." Our careful plans for our own lives and futures are often altered from the outside by the unexpected arrival of the wind of the Spirit.  All we can do is show up and respond.
