In reaching out to men who are struggling with their role and desire in a pregnancy decision, there are two main pillars, or truths, that support and undergird my counsel. I use these truths to combat the effects of the lies and fears that so many male clients have embraced concerning how they should act and feel in a pregnancy situation.
We aid these men with both the TRUTH of the personhood of their unborn babies and the TRUTH of the Person of Jesus - The Christ. In sharing the truth of the unborn, my client is shown that from conception, a unique and valuable person has come into existence - a person who needs to be loved, protected and provided for. In sharing the truth of the Lord Jesus Christ, my client is introduced to the Person and work of Christ in bringing salvation to all who will believe and act upon the gospel message.
These truths provide solid ground and confident footing in reaching men shaken by modern culture's lies, which tell them to be passive and not be the protectors and providers they are designed to be; lies that say they should influence a woman's freedom to terminate the life of their child. This is not easy work, but it is immensely important work.
