Recently on The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Shawn Carney, Sue Thayer, and Steve Karlen examined five arguments you should avoid making in defense of life.

On this week's episode, we tackle five essential arguments you NEED to make when defending unborn children:

1. Quality doesn't depend on circumstances--pro-life is pro-equality
2. Abortion stops a beating heart
3. Abortion is brutal, ugly, and only successful when a child dies
4. Unborn children deserve bodily autonomy too
5. Women deserve better

Tune in to learn the best points to make when abortion comes up in everyday conversation!

Parents have never had more challenges raising pro-life kids.

From the entertainment industry to Planned Parenthood's infiltration of education to social media, it's tough!

On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Shawn Carney and Steve Karlen talk with Ryan and Bethany Bomberger of the Radiance Foundation about:

• Bethany's new book: Pro-Life Kids
• Abortion and race
• How family life provides the best antidote to the culture of death

There are a lot of good arguments you can use when debating abortion...

...but on this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, Shawn Carney, Sue Thayer, and Steve Karlen examine five arguments you should avoid making in defense of life:

1. "We believe life begins at conception." 
2. "The baby could become the next..."
3. "Rape accounts for only 1% of abortions."
4. "If a woman doesn't want a baby, she should practice safe sex."
5. "Late-term abortions are worse than first-trimester abortions." 

These arguments--though frequently used--can do more harm than good. Tune in to learn the arguments you should be making!
