DAY 9: Abortion worker joins vigil

John, No one grows up wanting to work in the abortion industry. Abortion workers are not our enemies; they are opportunities to witness to the freeing mercy of Jesus Christ. He is the One who can orchestrate you praying next to a former abortio…

DAY 8: 85-year-old POW says YOU are a hero

John, When Lt. Col. John Yuill's B-52 was hit by two surface-to-air missiles in the skies over Vietnam, he had a decision to make. The plane's electricity went out and a wing was on fire. Should he try to limp the aircraft along until he was o…

DAY 7: Planned Parenthood knows prayer works

John, When you pray at your local 40 Days for Life vigil and don't see any babies saved, it can be tempting to doubt whether your presence makes a difference. But one group NEVER doubts whether you make an impact on the sidewalk: Planned Parent…

John, When 40 Days for Life volunteers in Arizona bring an umbrella to the vigil, it's usually to shield themselves from the sun. But when 40 Days for Life Outreach Director Sue Thayer visited kickoff events across the state, vigil participant…

DAY 3: No wimps allowed

John, 40 Days for Life isn't easy. Standing vigil in front of your local abortion business might not win you any popularity contests. It's often a thankless job. But there's too much at stake to wimp out! On this week's episode of The 40 Days…

Pure evil

John, 2019 was the Year of Infanticide in the United States of America. Never before were politicians or abortion supporters advocating to leave a baby girl who survived an abortion to die. It's sick and pure evil. Now, it seems to be a standard…

Infanticide and YOU
