The Case for Life

A talk on abortion can fail in two ways: too soft to convey the gravity of shedding innocent blood, or so harsh it leaves the wounded with no hope. Scott Klusendorf walks through the three questions every sermon on abortion must answer, from the Bible's case against abortion to the God who justifies the ungodly. Learn how to tell the truth about abortion and point post-abortive men and women to Christ on this episode of The Case for Life.

Many pastors stay silent on abortion for fear of looking political, out of apathy, or from a lack of confidence in the gospel. Former pastor Mike Spencer, author of Humanly Speaking, tells Scott Klusendorf why a shepherd who won't speak for the preborn is failing to protect his flock, and lays out four duties of a pro-life church. Find out how to encourage your own pastor to unmute the pulpit on this episode of The Case for Life.

Two young men in an Oxford pub asked Scott Klusendorf whether he was in favor of choice, and over fish and chips the conversation moved through unwanted children, disability, rape and relativism. Scott kept bringing them back to one question, what is the unborn, and when they admitted that morality is objective, he turned the talk to the gospel. Learn how to keep a pro-life conversation on the question that matters and how it can open the door to the gospel, on this episode of The Case for Life.

A newborn girl is failing organ by organ, and her Christian, pro-life parents are asking whether they may stop treatments that are not working. Some pro-lifers say the pro-life view means always resisting death, but Scott Klusendorf explains why letting a dying child go is not killing her, why her case is nothing like Terri Schiavo's, and why Lincoln and Wilberforce won with prudent timing, not all-or-nothing bills. If someone you love is dying, you'll learn what it means to always care and never harm, on this episode of The Case for Life.Be sure to subscribe to The Case for Life Podcast on iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, or your favorite podcast app so you never miss a single episode.Follow Scott Klusendorf on Rumble, Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to be kept up to date on everything God is doing through my pro-life work.Book me for an event or partner with Life Training Institute as a donor at https://prolifetraining.com.

Self-styled abolitionists say any law short of an immediate ban that jails women is disobedience to God, and they have been saying it loudly to pro-life students. JoJo Ruba debated Bradley Pierce, the lawyer behind many of their bills, at the Museum of the Bible and asked him whether he would end abortion in twenty years the pro-life way or in a hundred years his way. Hear what he chose, and learn how to answer the all-or-nothing argument yourself, on this episode of The Case for Life.

Equal protection advocates say incremental pro-life laws compromise with evil, but Micah Kunkle isn't convinced. Fresh from his Jubilee debates, Micah joins Scott Klusendorf to explain why their biblical case, their reading of history, and their sense of the cultural moment all fall short. Find out why saving every child you can today is how you win protection for them all on this episode of The Case for Life.

Canada never voted for euthanasia. Its courts imposed Medical Aid in Dying (MAID), and what was sold as a last resort for the dying now reaches people with years left to live, with the mentally ill and disabled newborns next in line. Jojo Ruba of Cornerstone Institute explains how the same ideology is punishing pro-life and Christian speech across Canada, and why he calls his country the canary in the coal mine for America. You'll hear why a desire to die does not create a right to die, and what to watch for as the same push reaches American states, on this episode of The Case for Life.

Abolitionists argue that a bill saving some babies teaches the wrong lesson, and they would let it die on the desk rather than sign it. Dr. Craig Ireland answers from the text itself: Isaiah 10 was addressed to Judah, not to you, and the people Scripture actually praises for saving lives were midwives in Egypt and a woman in Jericho who had no clean options at all. Find out why you are not legislating from Sinai, what Wilberforce and Lincoln understood about prudence that purists miss, and why the ground you can take today is worth taking, on this episode of The Case for Life.

A law on paper stops no abortion if no officer investigates, no prosecutor files, and no judge rules, which is why promising immediate abolition promises something no legislature can deliver. Australian pastor and theologian Dr. Craig Ireland, who holds a master's in law, walks through what actually moves in a precedent-based legal system, why refusing partial protections trades real children for an ideal future, and why "our goal isn't more babies saved" removes you from the conversation entirely. Watch, then decide which roadmap you'll put your effort behind, on this episode of The Case for Life.

Progressive pastor Caleb Lines claims religious people didn't care about abortion until 1978, when it was picked up as cover for segregation — so abortion, he says, is "really about racism." Scott Klusendorf names the genetic fallacy driving that whole argument, grants the pastor his premise to show it still refutes nothing, then corrects the history of the church's witness on abortion from the Didache through the Reformers to Bonhoeffer. Learn to spot the move the next time someone swaps your argument for your alleged motives, on this episode of The Case for Life.

Pregnancy centers exist to rescue children from abortion — so why are so many being pressured to become something else? Marc Newman, author of Pivot, joins Scott to name two distractions pulling centers off mission: the "pro-abundant life" push from one side and the equal protection guilting campaign from the other. Whether you give, volunteer, or just want to think clearly about how abortion actually gets stopped, this episode of The Case for Life is for you

Scott Klusendorf sits down with Jay Watts of Merely Human Ministries to examine the terminology pro-life advocates use — and why both men deliberately avoid the word "murder" when making the case against abortion. Jay shares his journey from atheist and pro-choice college student to full-time pro-life advocate, lays out the three questions he asks of every term he introduces, and answers critics who insist that only preaching the gospel can change hearts on abortion.

Scott Klusendorf sits down with Dr. Mark Newman to discuss his new book Pivot, which lays out a strategy for the pro-life movement in a post-Roe v. Wade world. They examine why abortion rights keep winning at the ballot box in deep red states, how pastors have been left unequipped by their seminaries, and why so-called equal protection bills are unenforceable — and may even cost unborn lives. Discover what it will take for the pro-life movement to work smarter and save the most lives possible on this episode of The Case for Life.

Scott Klusendorf welcomes Jojo Ruba of Students for Life of America to examine why equal protection bills demanding immediate abolition may cost more unborn lives than they save. Drawing on Scripture, historical reformers like Wilberforce and Lincoln, and Canada's nearly four decades without a single abortion law, they make the biblical case that God himself works incrementally—and that prudence, not zealotry, is what secures permanent abolition. Find out why premature abolitionism could be the pro-life movement's costliest mistake on this episode of The Case for Life.

When pro-abortion advocates bristle at the label and insist they're merely "pro-choice," they reveal a telling instinct to apologize for something they claim is perfectly fine. Scott Klusendorf unpacks why that retreat to 1990s "safe, legal, and rare" language collapses under a single question—choice to do what?—and exposes the moral relativism quietly propping up the whole evasion. Tune in to sharpen your ability to cut through the fog and press for real clarity on this episode of the Case for Life.

Scott Klusendorf wraps up his series on the academic thinkers driving pro-abortion thought. Giubilini and Minerva shocked the world by arguing that if abortion is permissible, so is killing newborns—because neither fetus nor newborn is an "actual person." David Boonin takes a different path, conceding that you are identical to the embryo you once were, yet denying you had a right to life back then. Learn how to answer both arguments—one based on identity, the other on rights—and see why either way the conclusion is deadly, on this episode of The Case for Life.

On this episode of the Case for Life, Scott Klusendorf breaks down philosopher Michael Tooley's mental continuity theory, which claims a right to life requires an actual (not just potential) self-aware subject with memories linking its experiences over time, meaning Tooley argues that infanticide can be justified. Scott exposes the recurring patterns beneath this and similar arguments, body-self dualism and arbitrarily chosen traits, showing why species membership and human nature, not cognitive performance, ground human equality. Once you learn to recognize these patterns, you'll be equipped to challenge them with confidence.

The worldview premises that make abortion plausible to our fellow citizens didn't emerge in the 1960s—they're rooted in centuries of philosophical shifts, from the Enlightenment's fact-value split to today's outright rejection of human dignity. Scott Klusendorf traces this history through Nietzsche, Oxford's Bodleian Library, and the patient legislative work of abolitionists like Wilberforce and Lincoln, showing why real cultural change takes prudence, not impatience. Discover why understanding this history matters for defending life today on this episode of The Case for Life.

Scott Klusendorf continues his series on answering the leading academic defenders of abortion by turning to Peter Singer, whose mental continuity view claims that no newborn, much less unborn child, is a person until it can value its own existence. Scott shows how Singer's argument rests on a faulty utilitarian ethic and a definition of personhood that cannot account for sleeping adults, coma patients, or anyone else who clearly remains a subject of rights. Join us as we learn how to answer one of the most influential thinkers in bioethics on this episode of The Case for Life.

Either every human being shares an equal right to life, or human value rests on traits — self-awareness, rationality, the ability to feel pain — that none of us possess in equal measure. Oxford philosopher Kate Greasley grants that the unborn are human but denies they are persons, offering one of the most sophisticated cases on the pro-choice side, and Scott Klusendorf shows why her arguments, however winsome, can't deliver the human equality she still wants to keep. Find out how to answer one of the brightest voices on the other side without being intimidated, on this episode of The Case for Life.
