Getting practical on abortion Sandy Grant

Check out this excellent video from the “free money for new lives” people, encouraging us to consider donating to this campaign to care for women and their unborn children, with monies soon to be received from the Australian Government’s fiscal stimulus package.

The video is well produced and features women - including those who’ve had an abortion - and men speaking about this project. I thought it was clear and to the point as well as being sensitive to women for whom this is a painful topic.

If you visit this page of their website, you can download a brochure for distribution at your church (check with your pastor first).

Bumping this topic up, because this is the week the ‘free money’ from the Australian Government’s economic stimulus package begins to flow.

If you are a recipient (even if not) and you want to do something practical to encourage women to keep their babies and reduce the abortion epidemic, now’s the time to meet the ‘free money for new lives’ challenge and donate half your $1000/child to their campaign!

Bumping this up again - two reasons…

1. I understand the Free Money for New Lives campaign has hit the hundred thousand dollar mark. Better than before Christmas, although I wish it were more - much more.

2. John Piper has a great list of 15 conversation gambits on the topic of abortion and thinking clearly about it.
