Why You Can’t Be Pro-Choice and Christian

by Dale Partridge

While most Christians are decidedly pro-life, there are still many who claim the name of Christ yet actually identify as pro-choice. There’s an additional group of people in the church who simply sit in the middle—they say things like, “I would never wish a mother to abort her baby, but I’m not going to make it illegal for her to do so.” In today’s episode, Dale and Veronica discuss why you can’t be Christian and Pro-Choice, but also why you can’t simply be anti-abortion, and why we must, as Christians, be pro-life.
