Roe v. Wade at 37

Trevin Wax, with a great post here.  His conclusion:

We as Christians must work to bring comfort and care to pregnant women in need, and to the women who have regrets about their abortions. We do not believe that it can somehow be in the best interest of a woman to deliberately kill her unborn child. Difficult pregnancies provide an opportunity for us to embrace the mother and child alike. And that is what churches and pregnancy centers all across America do every day.

So we call on those in government to protect the weak and vulnerable, and to do so without discrimination. We seek to defend those who cannot defend themselves. We speak up for the unborn and the disabled. We welcome the child with Down’s Syndrome, the child with abnormalities, the child with AIDS. We financially support the family who adopts children of other nationalities and races.
You can tell how pro-life, pro-family, and pro-child our churches really are by the way we support the youngest in our congregations. Some Christians would give months of their time to campaign for a pro-life candidate, but would not give a few hours a year to sit with children in the nursery or teach a child in Sunday School. A truly pro-life, pro-child church will never have a shortage of nursery workers. The sounds of babies crying are the sounds of life, God-given life that we cannot take for granted.

A truly pro-life, pro-family church welcomes the disruption of children in the foyer, rejoices at the sight of new faces in children’s church. and smiles at the thought of families from different countries and backgrounds joining us in praise to God.

Being pro-life is not just about having bumper stickers on your car. It’s about loaning your car to a single mother.

Being pro-life is not just shedding tears at the thought of how abortion robs the world of a child. It’s about you and I treasuring the children God has given us here and now.
