Abortion Resources and Info. Leading up to the 40th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade



Check back from time-to-time as I will seek to expand on this 40th Anniversary Roe v. Wade posting

See a video of Norma McCorvey, the woman caught in the fight that made abortion legal in 1973.  She never had an abortion and she is now a pro-life advocate

This January 23rd marks 40 years since Roe v. Wade. Political involvement has gotten us nowhere has been my take on this awful anniversary. I urge people to operate at the grassroots, one woman/teen or young couple at a time. Political policy has failed us and now it is time to redouble our efforts to help those with crisis pregnancies make the right choice and help the crisis pregnancy centers that are the front-lines of this battle for the hearts and minds of potential parents and of the lives of their unborn offspring.

TIME takes another view:

Has The Fight For Abortion Rights Been Lost?


Abortions through Planned Parenthood in 2011 – 333,964 (3% of what they do, but they account for what % of abortions?)

In 2008, there were 1.2 million abortions nationwide, a number that has changed little in the three years since the last survey by the Guttmacher Institute (more recent numbers seem difficult to come by).
- so, if those numbers hold steady, then (help me math majors) Planned Parenthood performed 28% of them or nearly 1 out of every 3?


Tim Challies, Reformed blogger, posts a story of going to a service for the unborn. Many of those who made the decision for abortion and later regretted it have a service for their babies. Quite a compelling story

Update: Latest school shooting in Colorado   'His intent was evil': Colorado high school gunman intended to shoot numerous people, sheriff says By Daniella Silva, NBC News He shot Claire Esther Davis , 17, who just happened to be sitting nearby with a friend as he headed toward the library. The girl suffered severe head trauma and remains in critical condition at Littleton Adventist Hospital.   "Our beautiful daughter Claire Davis has severe head trauma as a result of a gunshot. She needs your continued prayers," the family statement read.  Note:  The lone gunman killed himself after shooting Claire though clearly armed to do much more.  Thanks to the actions of an officer, the results were far less than the carnage he apparently wished to unleash.  Please join me in praying for Claire and all those impacted by this act of violence. image location Join me in praying for the families of Newtown who will experience their second Christmas  season w

Rob Bell's Love Wins: Chapter Four: Does God Get What He Wants?

Before I start, I want to make clear something from an earlier blogpost. I wrote of future events from a premillennial, dispensational perspective. By no means am I implying that is the only orthodox position. I will leave it to others who comment to give other orthodox perspectives, if they wish. My issue with Bell is not orthodoxy but what I view as error and obviously many godly, conservative Christian scholars agree with that assessment. Our differences over orthodox doctrine are within the family. We believe that Bell’s is outside of orthodoxy. The title of chapter four reveals the depth of Rob Bell’s misunderstanding. God would love for everyone to come to a knowledge of the truth and be saved by faith in Jesus. However, even as Bell acknowledges, a loving God will not force anyone. Therefore, He provided the natural revelation of who He is and special revelation through the transmission of the Bible, visions, dreams, miracles and ultimately and most spectacularly t
