What's coming up? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
January is here. This is a month that many of us will think about the abortion industry. After all, Roe V. Wade was decided this month in 1973 and here we are years ago and the silent holocaust is still going on in America. In January, I tend to devote all of my shows to the topic of abortion. I haven't always done perfect, but it is the hope.
This month, I also asked around for friends in the area of apologetics specializing in abortion. I found three who were willing to come on. I hope then to introduce you to some new names in this field and new resources that you can use. One guest this month will be someone already well known in the field but for the others, I want to give my friends a chance to shine.
So who's up first?
Meet Ty Benbow.
According to his bio:
Ty Benbow is a professor and emerging author originally from Muncie, Indiana.
Ty has an approach where he seeks to get inside the head of a woman who is seeking an abortion. What is going on? We might be too quick to write someone off like this for negative reasons. Sure. We can all agree that the action is sinful, but we all do things that are wrong and we all think we have good reasons to do those things that are wrong. Ty will help us try to understand what is going on.
And what is the church to do? Ty has a hope that the church will become more proactive in this field. One complaint often given is that the church doesn't really care about the child so long as the child isn't aborted. Are we looking for signs of women in our community even who could be considering abortion and how to help them? There are a number of women who go to get abortions who identify as Christians after all.
This will be a serious month no doubt as abortion is a serious issue and since I'm not a specialist in the topic, I'm honored to be joined by people who do focus on that topic. It is my hope that you will be equipped better to talk with the people in your life who are considering abortion or have had one. We can be like Christ for those people who are struggling with the help of these people.
In Christ,
Nick Peters
