What Repentance Actually Costs a Nation

Daniel 9, Ezra 9-10, Jonah 3, 2 Chronicles 7:14. Beyond the bumper sticker. The shape of corporate confession, fasting, solemn assembly, and bearing fruit. Could anchor a Day of Mourning episode.

What it takes to plant an Abolitionist Society in your town

We need to get people started doing this. It does take obedient work and it probably does take having a vision and a plan. Talk about that and also some of the pitfalls. Count the cost.

June 5, happening right now

Couple murders their child because of a Down syndrome diagnoses. Man tells people calling them a murder that they’re vitriolic and uncompassionate of them in their “difficult time” Mike Johnson comments on the situation, he’s right, but he’s a hypocrite.

Abolitionism in a box

Looking back on your journey, what did you wish that you had known right from the start and would have helped you along the way. Think if it like this. If, when you were first introduced to abolitionism and you made your decision that you could not be pro life or support the PLM, and Russel Hunter walked up and said, "get, I have a box of stuff for you to help you be an abolitionist.", looking back on that time, what would you have wanted to be in the box? - The Norman Statement? - A list of people to call? - A sign and a body cam for making videos? - A veteran Abolitionist to go with you to talk to your pastor with you? - Anything else?

Bounty Hunting Mercenaries, the Abolitioniusts

I know but that has come up and social media and the news about laws that would give bounties for turning in mothers who have or may have taken the life of their child through child sacrifice, abortion. I know that those who hate God would use any real or contrived message to paint abolitionists as bloodthirsty gore enjoying demons who are emptying the stores of popping corn waiting for the chance to see any 12-year-old girl who was raped be gunned down by a firing squad or fried on the electric chair. We know that those who hate God will use any opportunity to lie cheat and steal the trust created by fear in the American voter to try and shame anyone from moving any closer today toward abolition. I have to say that at this point in time I'm leaning away from the idea of bounties to try to find people and prosecute them for a crime of prenatal homicide. And I'm still thinking through it. Did God describe or prescribe the use of bounties in his law, or did he just command us to do justice. Putting the responsibility on us to do the right thing regardless. And for the believer that would carry even more weight than a financial bounty, would it not? I think sometimes we make laws based on our understanding that we know people are greedy and that they will be incentivized to do things for financial reward which they would not do for as a moral responsibility to the lawgiver. That's my primary reason for thinking it's a bad idea. But I think the discussion should be had, and I can't recall any Q&as or podcasts regarding this. If there are any, put them here or share in the call to contend chat so that I might be able to listen to the arguments on both sides. As far as being pragmatic with the laws that we have for other murder, I have never really thought about it deeply, to my shame, that we would have bounties or rewards for turning in murderers of other people, born people. So for all the people who would say we should not have bounties to turn in the murderer of a

Talking to unbelievers about abortion

I get tongue tied when talking to unbelievers about abortion and why God hates it. How do you converse with a Jew that thinks God allows some abortions and life doesn’t begin until 40 days after conception?

Incrementalism catechized the culture with deadly lies and neutered the Christian witness.

What an Abolitionist Church Actually Looks Like

Concrete picture: what it looks like for one local church to meaningfully oppose the abortion holocaust in word and deed. Sermons, signs, sidewalk presence, lobbying lawmakers, training the next generation. Interview a pastor doing it.

How to Talk to Your Pastor (Without Burning the Bridge)

Listener-facing how-to. Scripts, books to gift, push-backs to expect, when to leave a church that won't move, when to stay and labor. Written for the abolitionist sitting in the pew on Sunday.

At the Abortion Mill

What direct action looks like at the killing place. Sidewalk counseling, the "rescue" tradition (and the law that punished it), legal risk in 2026, and where each of our speakers personally draws the line. Proverbs 24:11 in practice.

Wilberforce Was Slow. He Was Also Right.

The historical analogue most abolitionists invoke. Honest account, not hagiography. What Wilberforce, Sharp, and Clarkson got right (immediatism, gospel-centered argument) and where they compromised (the slow march, the apprentice clauses). Lessons for now.

The 14th Amendment Already Bans Abortion

The strongest constitutional argument for criminalizing abortion as homicide. Equal protection isn't aspirational — it's already in the text. Bring a constitutional lawyer and walk through how the courts have dodged it.

Should Mothers Be Prosecuted?

The question abolitionists get asked most. How to hold both that there is forgiveness for the sin of murder AND that justice for victims must be established. Pastoral, not punitive — and why blanket immunity is itself an injustice.

The Pill Is the Loophole

Pills by mail, telehealth, and the abortion-doula network. If only doctors can be prosecuted, the industry just routes around them. Why "doctor-only" laws are already obsolete and what equal-protection legislation has to address.

The Sermon Your Pastor Won't Preach

Matthew 5:13-16 applied to fifty years of evangelical equivocation. Why the pulpits went quiet, what kept them quiet, and a call to repentance. Honest about the cultural Christianity, donor fear, and eschatology that made silence feel responsible.

Some Children, Not Others: The Sin of Partial Bills

The argument that's often skipped: every bill that protects some children but not others codifies partiality, which Scripture forbids over and over. Deuteronomy 1:16-17, Leviticus 19:15, James 2:8-9.

Why We Call It Child Sacrifice

Defending the biblical category against accusations of being inflammatory. Walking Psalm 139, Jeremiah 1:5, and Exodus 21:22-25 from the text into the language we use in public. Why "tragic choice" is itself an iniquitous decree of the heart.

Isaiah 10 and the Six-Week Bill

Close-reading "Woe to those who decree iniquitous decrees" and applying it directly to the gestational bills, exception clauses, and "compromise wins" celebrated in pro-life circles. The text doesn't leave room for celebration.

Romans 13 Doesn't Say What You Think

The verse most often weaponized against abolitionists who defy unjust laws. Walk through it next to Daniel 3, Acts 5, Exodus 1, and the lesser-magistrate doctrine. Submission has limits, and the text shows them.
