What’s next in the stand for life? In 2022, the Dobbs case overturned Roe v. Wade and sent the issue of abortion back to the states. Now, more than twenty states have abortion bans; but a surprising number of pro-abortion ballot measures have succeeded–even in state such as Ohio, Michigan, Arizona, and Nevada. And this exposed more than just political opinion as exit polling showed that 1 in 3 self-identified weekly church-going Catholics and Evangelicals voted to enshrine abortion in the Ohio constitution. Now, the issue of the abortion pill is taking center stage as the pill accounts for most abortions; and religious leaders are pushing pro-abortion arguments in the media and in churches. With these developments in mind, how should Christians respond? In his recent book Life After Roe, David Closson explains next steps in the stand for life; and, in this interview, we discuss the book and what Christians should focus on in the coming years.
