What does it look like to bring compassion and conviction together in conversations about abortion?
Often, the cultural debate focuses on the question of law: What should be legal or illegal. It’s a critical question.
But as disciples of Jesus, our care extends beyond the question of what’s legal or not. Not only do we care about just law, we also care about the whole social fabric of the community.
As the church, we are called not just to influence policy, but also to *do the work* of Gospel invitation in our own neighborhoods, presenting a more compelling alternative to violent choices.
When we’re engaged in that work, our faith in Jesus informs how we vote, how we talk, and how we love.
