Sanctity of Life | Romans 5:6–8

In this message, we look at the sanctity of human life through the authority of Scripture and the heart of the gospel.

On Mother’s Day, Wonder Church partnered with Love Life to pray, fast, give, and take practical steps toward creating a culture of love and life. This message addresses the difficult questions surrounding abortion, the value of the unborn, the responsibility of the Church, and the hope of the gospel for every person.

Scripture teaches that God sees life in the womb as known, formed, valued, and purposed. From Jeremiah 1 to Psalm 139 to Luke 1, we see that unborn life is not hidden from God, forgotten by God, or less valuable to God. But this message does not stop at conviction. It also calls the Church to compassion, action, and care for mothers, fathers, children, orphans, and families in crisis.

The heart of the message is Romans 5:6–8: while we were utterly helpless, Christ came for us. Just as the unborn are helpless, we were helpless in our sin. And just as life requires sacrifice, Jesus gave His life so that we could live.

This is not only a message about life in the womb. It is a message about the gospel, the authority of Scripture, and the call of the Church to love both mother and child with truth, compassion, and courage.

In this message:

•  Why Christians build their worldview from Scripture, not culture
