My wife Chelsea returns to Truthspresso to continue a series discussing abortion.Abortion advocates often bring up rape and incest as exceptional cases to defend abortion.

The Right to Life and Absolute Truth (a discussion with my wife Chelsea)
My wife Chelsea returns to Truthspresso to continue a series discussing abortion.We ask and answer challenges from the pro-abortion side about when abortion is justified. Using Scott Klusendorf’s “SLED” model we explain why questions about size, level of development, environment (or location) and degree of dependency cannot justify killing the unborn or consider them less human or have a lesser right to life.Chelsea presents how the regulation against “partial-birth abortion” is difficult to enforce. I explain that pro-abortion philosophy ultimately can only be relative and progressive and cannot be grounded on absolute truth.Absolute truth and justice demands an absolute truth Giver. The gospel of Jesus Christ and the truth of the Bible are the only complete solution against the tragedy

Approaching Abortion with Compassion (a discussion with my wife Chelsea)
My wife Chelsea returns to Truthspresso to continue a series discussing abortion.We discuss what abortion advocates can miss from the pro-life movement: that we understand why people believe they need abortion.

She shares two powerful examples of how she persuaded two young women on separate occasions not to abort their baby.We hope this episode encourages you to embrace strong pro-life convictions while showing the love of Christ.Chelsea holds a B.S. in
Is Abortion “Essential”? (a discussion with my wife Chelsea)
My wife Chelsea and I discuss an overview of the topic of abortion.We open with an article about the CEO of Planned Parenthood in Colorado being happy that Texans are coming to Colorado to get more abortions during the pandemic.Chelsea explains different types of abortion procedures from “chemical” in early weeks of pregnancy to “surgical” in later weeks, and how women are exploited by the abortion industry.Daniel briefly tours abortion policy through American history.
