Teen abortion happening behind parents' backs

Marc Lucas joins us this week to talk about preventing abortion in the face of teen pregnancy. Many parents are not aware that even in places where parental consent is required, any teen can obtain an abortion without their parent ever knowing it has happened. We discussed the scenario presented in the foreign film Memoir of a Veering Storm [https://www.newyorker.com/culture/screening-room/an-abortion-hidden-from-parental-view-in-memoir-of-a-veering-storm]. And we present ideas for avoiding that storm. Surprisingly, the American Association of Pediatrics [https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/139/2/e20163861/59961/The-Adolescent-s-Right-to-Confidential-Care-When?autologincheck=redirected] does not advocate for mandatory parental involvement. Church resources include ministries like Embrace Grace [https://embracegrace.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiA3pugBhAwEiwAWFzwdcx_oGxu_Qd2AOWexmAlRB9w1FMuDo2jDP2tdFW9CiORSO5QJn1INBoCaR4QAvD_BwE] and Pro-Grace [https://www.prograce.org/]. Lucas also referenced the He Gets Us [https://hegetsus.com/en] campaign to model Christ-like care for life's most difficult issues. From Marc’s bio [https://marcrlucas.com/]: Marc Lucas has served as a pastor for a combined 15 years with two mega-churches in the Valley: Sun Valley Community Church and Highlands Church. He’s an alumni of Arizona Christian University with a degree in Biblical Studies. He is currently the Local Ministry Director at Faith Talk 1360.

Dr. Priscilla Coleman is an academic and expert voice whose credits include over sixty peer-reviewed journal entries [https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=S--K9lkAAAAJ&hl=en].

And it’s not a healthy choice as the mainstream pitches it.” The study of the psychological impact of abortion on women dates back to the days prior to Roe v Wade and legalization. Mining the sparse early studies created a drive in Coleman to learn more. She notes that by 2008 a proliferation of studies confirmed abortion significantly increases mental health risks to women. We also discuss the climate of suppression and censorship of her research.

Chuck Foreman Part 2 Abortion- What then shall we do?

Is activism the answer to abortion? Can slogans ever change hearts and minds? Given that more than 60 million lives have been lost to abortion in the US under Roe v Wade, what is the church now called to do in their communities? Leading with love is a primary responsibility, according to Pastor Foreman, along with the duty to seek to understand the question beyond the political noise and rhetoric. He says, "What I'm doing now is not political. Let's think critically...talk intelligently... and bathe it in a a loving spirit." Abortion may be a policy debate taking place in Washington DC, but abortion is happening in our neighborhoods. The local church is uniquely positioned to meet the challenge of preventing abortion as well as the restoration of those who have experienced it. From his bio: Chuck Foreman and his wife, Kathy, served as missionaries in Taiwan for twenty years and were also field coordinators for East Asia with Team Expansion. They have four children and two grandchildren. Chuck and Kathy live in Phoenix, Arizona, where Chuck is the teaching and missions pastor for First Christian Church [https://www.faithstreet.com/church/first-christian-church-of-phoenix-phoenix-az], a church recognized for its leadership in modeling what it means to humbly serve its community. He is the author of The Deadliest Sin, A Penetrating Look at the Poison of Pride in a Leader.
