How to respond to this TOUGH pro-choice challenge (Plus, upcoming JFA Workshops)


Answering the hard cases...

Hello Reader,

Many pro-life people fear getting stuck in a conversation about abortion’s hardest cases—questions like: What if the woman was sexually assaulted? What if her life is in danger? What if the baby won’t survive to birth? These are incredibly heavy topics, and the fear of saying the wrong thing often leads people to avoid the discussion altogether.

But avoiding tough questions won’t change hearts and minds. That’s why I wrote a blog post walking through how to address abortion in cases of sexual assault—step by step. In it, I share a real conversation I had with a pro-choice student whose mother had been sexually assaulted. Do you think she should have had a choice in a situation that? he asked me.
