One Heart at a Time

There's a strategy put forward in Kirk Walden's book The Wall for ending abortion. It has nothing to do with changing laws or reversing Roe v. Wade. In fact, it requires no action from the government at all.

It has to do with pro-life community crisis pregnancy centers. Such grass roots centers are actually making a huge difference nationwide. Women in crisis pregnancies come into the centers for a free ultrasound and get so much more. They are listened to, some for the first time in their lives, loved on, told they have value. And more importantly, shown they have value by how they're treated. They are introduced to a world of free resources to help them parent.

As more and more women choose parenting or adoption, business at abortion mills declines. Unlike the community crisis pregnancy centers, they are for-profit businesses. Once business drops below profitability for long enough, they close. It's very black 'n' white. We are seeing them shutdown all over the country.

The feminists can keep their precious piece of paper, the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, keeping abortion legal. But if no one has one, abortion is still defeated. They can keep their piece of paper; I'll take the hearts of the people, one heart at a time.

It's the same thing with the same-sex marriage Supreme Court decision. I believe we can defeat the homosexual agenda one heart at a time, by loving the ones God's placed in our path. We can love them without condoning their lifestyle. Jesus was an expert at it. If we love them like he loved the woman at the well and the tax collectors, bringing them the healing they need, same-sex marriage can be defeated just like abortion is being defeated.
