An Abortion Truck at the DNC: A Biblical Response
The Democratic National Convention has revealed the radical leftist agenda of the Democratic Party, particularly in regards to issues like abortion. Dr. Owen Strachan believes that as Christians, we need to take stock of where things are and engage in political matters to promote what is good and restrain what is evil. We should not be swayed by the lies fed to us by the left, such as the idea that we can be pro-life in an all-of-life way or that the government will make everything right. We must stand for religious liberty, uphold biblical sexuality and identity, and support limited government and the free market.
