Parent Kit: Practical Pro-Life Parenting

Summit Ministries is proud to stand with parents in every season of raising the next generation of Christians. It can be difficult to connect the story of God and his transformative power with the day-to-day of raising our kids. We want to support, encourage, & equip you with resources on this important subject. Below you’ll find material on what it looks like to truly be ‘pro-life’ and how to communicate these ideas to your children. As ambassadors of God’s kingdom, we are to embody a life-giving and affirming posture toward all people. This is especially true as we protect the life of the unborn, who are equal image-bearers of God. 

Raising Pro-Life Kids: A Practical Guide For Parents

We often know the right answers about the pro-life position, but how do we communicate those truths to our children? Check out the following guide for practical, simple, yet impactful steps to take to engage your child. Prepare yourself for these important conversations with helpful questions to ask and content to understand as you speak the truth in love with your child. 

           Bodily Agency, Abortion, & the Pro-Life Movement

When discussing the pro-life position, questions about bodily agency and autonomy often come up. What are some productive responses to this? Also, is there hope and healing for women who have regrets about having an abortion? Listen in as Dr. Jeff and Robyn Chambers talk through what some of these conversations could look like. 

Disabilities, Discrimination, & the Dignity of Life

When considering the pro-life movement, do you only think about the unborn? Being pro-life means encouraging a flourishing life at all stages of existence and defending the innocent, the marginalized, and the oppressed regardless of how old they are. In this thoughtful article, you’ll learn about the meaningful contributions those with disabilities give to the church and what it looks like to be proponents of life from womb to tomb.
