Carson Davis was a normal somewhat indifferent, somewhat lukewarm Christian when the Lord pricked his heart. The reality of the bloodguilt of unborn children rested heavily upon him. Choosing to be obedient to scripture, he eventually joined hands with today’s Abolitionists and has been publicly advocating for the immediate end to abortion in the US ever since.
In this conversation, Carson and I start with his story and spread out into the issues involved in abortion: Its biblical corollaries, what faithfulness requires, the church’s relationship with the state, the burden of ‘effectiveness,’ the sin of incrementalism, etc. We fit a lot into an hour.
