For more than 25 years I’ve had the privilege of leading an adult Sunday school class. We share “Joys and Concerns” each week and since many of the members have parents who are aging rapidly and/or in declining health, we often talk about what that entails, not only for them, but for their siblings and even for the grandkids.

When we left, the conversation brought to mind something I’d written about more than once, because the experience had a profound impact on me. It concerned an elderly lady to whom my wife and I grew very close in her last few months.

IF SOMEONE asks what you think about abortion, or why you’re pro-life, what do you say? How do you get supporters of abortion to rethink the issue—or even change their minds?
