Overview

"How did intentionally killing human beings in the womb become ""health care""? When did sacrificing the innocent become the path to ""freedom""? Planned Parenthood and their allies are normalizing abortion and selling a lie. In Contenders, Dr. Marc Newman shows you the spiritual underpinnings of the abortion industry and how its advocates ""argue in retreat."" With every shift in the conversation, you will learn how to winsomely respond to abortion-choice supporters and help them to see that their view of the unborn is not only scientifically insupportable, but morally disfiguring, placing all human beings at risk. Drawing on decades as a nationally-recognized pro-life communication trainer, apologist, professor, and director of intercollegiate speech and debate, Newman equips readers to: Strip the mask off of abortion Understand why the church has remained so silent Recognize and defeat abortion advocate's Five Big Shifts Give you confidence to speak up for the unborn Become powerfully persuasive while remaining winsome Combat a culture of death by creating tangible, life-affirming alternatives Empower Christians to change the world"
