Many in today’s younger generation - teens and college students - are calling THEMSELVES the Pro-life Generation. That’s because more and more teens and university students are becoming aware of the devastating horror of abortion and are taking action to make their lives count by saving the lives of the unborn. In this episode of The 40 Days For Life Podcast you will hear many stories of how people as young as middle school and high school students are making a difference, saving lives, and influencing entire communities to the point that abortion clinics are shutting their doors. This episode is packed with inspiring stories, so be sure you listen.
At times it can be hard to find willing volunteers who will stand up to the abuse and persecution that may come from organizing and leading a 40 Day For Life campaign in a local community. That’s what makes one example on today's podcast so extraordinary. An 18- year old, not even old enough to drive has taken up the mantle of leadership in Memphis, TN, leading that community’s 40 Days For Life campaign with incredible effectiveness. Listen to hear how this one teen led a group of amazing volunteers in an effort that successfully shut down the local Planned Parenthood clinic through consistent, loving, peaceful demonstration outside its doors.
Many of the members of this self-proclaimed “pro-life generation” have cited a book, “Do Hard Things” as one of the reasons they’ve decided to step into the battle to save unborn lives. They realized something that is true for all of us - we MUST step into the gap to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. It will require difficulty and strain. It will require us to get out of our comfort zones. But the fulfillment that comes from saving lives is one of the most rewarding things any human being can experience. Listen to this episode to learn how teens and college students are making an incredible difference in the lives of expectant mothers and their unborn children.
Now and then we get to hear stories that amaze and inspire all at the same time. On this episode, we hear of a woman who was told by her doctor that the child in her womb would surely die because her amniotic fluid was leaking. The recommended course of action: an abortion. But this brave pro-life mother told her doctor that as long as there was a heartbeat, there was still hope. Today, the baby she chose to carry is the 19-year old leader of her local 40 Days For Life campaign, a living reminder of the lives that are being saved by this crucial work. Learn how you can be a part of making a difference that is just as significant, on this episode.
Many countries across the globe have laws on the books that make abortion illegal. But that doesn’t mean unborn lives are safe in those countries. In Nigeria, abortion is rampant, especially among the teen population of that 3rd world country, even though it is illegal to perform an abortion. Teens and young adults in Nigeria are rising up, reaching out to their peers and pointing them toward a better way. Listen to this episode to learn how teens in Nigeria are joining the 40 Days For Life cause to save the lives of unborn children in their mother country.
