America Beat Roe. So Why Are Abortions Still Rising?

About this episode

Dr. Ben Carson discusses the implications of Roe v. Wade's overturning and the ongoing fight for life in America.

Dr. Ben Carson reflects on the sanctity of life, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the rise of chemical abortions, and why the fight for life is far from over. Drawing on his experience as a pediatric neurosurgeon who operated on babies in the womb, Dr. Carson explains why every human life has value from the moment of conception — and why Christians are being called to courage in a culture increasingly hostile to that truth. Joined by Reverend Clark Chilton and Reverend Dr. Ken Lyon of Wesley Memorial Church in High Point, North Carolina, this powerful conversation explores faith, compassion, prayer, adoption, foster care, crisis pregnancy centers, and the responsibility believers have to protect the vulnerable.
