”Det är osäkert när det mänskliga livet börjar.” ”Fostret är bara en del av kvinnans kropp.” ”Rätten till abort är grundläggande för kvinnans frigörelse.”

Vi har alla hört dessa argument i abortdebatten. I Till de oföddas försvar bemöter pastor Randy Alcorn systematiskt dessa och en mängd andra abortliberala påståenden med relevanta, faktabaserade och raka motargument. Randy Alcorns strukturerade och väl underbyggda försvar för det ofödda barnet präglas av både passion och logisk stringens. Ett värdefullt material återfinns i bilagorna, där Alcorn bland annat behandlar frågan om att finna förlåtelse efter abort. Till de oföddas försvar är en guldgruva av information för dig som är personligt berörd av abortfrågan och en oumbärlig handbok för alla som vill värna livet.

The Life, Legacy, and Lessons of a Civil Rights Giant"Justice is something every generation has to strive for."A trailblazer in the civil rights movement, John M. Perkins led voter registration efforts in 1964, worked for school desegregation in 1967, and was jailed and tortured in 1970. He is no less zealous today as he sees a new generation of freedom fighters battling the same issues and the same systems he has spent his life working to correct. Through his raw, personal stories spanning from the civil rights era to today, Perkins shows us that, though the fight is not over, there are many reasons to hope and to carry on the good work he and his contemporaries began more than a generation ago. He calls us to work for justice by living out God's redemptive love in all of our relationships."It all comes down to love," he says. "Love will always be our final fight."
