Part 1 - Speaking Boldly & Redemptively About Abortion - w/ Mike Spencer
Pro-Life Apologist Mike Spencer joins us to discuss why so many pastors/churches are silent about abortion. Mike responds to several arguments that are commonly raised within the Church for why we shouldn't talk about abortion, and shows us how speaking boldly and redemptively about this issue fosters life within the church - both for the unborn in the womb, and for those in the church who are struggling with an abortion decision in their past.
