“This book will equip readers to articulate both a philosophical and a biblical case for life and to answer intelligently and persuasively the main objections to the pro-life position. It is easy to follow and hard to put down.”
– Patrick Lee
McAleer Professor of Bioethics, Director, Institute of Bioethics, Franciscan University of Steubenville“Scott Klusendorf’s accessible, winsomely written book presents a well-reasoned, comprehensive case for intrinsic human dignity and worth. Klusendorf not only equips the reader with incisive, insightful responses to pro-abortion arguments; he also presents a full defense of the biblical worldview.”

The Case for Life
The One Question That Ended the Abolitionist Debate
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.
Three Reasons Equal Protection Advocates Lost Me
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.
Why Canada’s Euthanasia Crisis Is America’s Warning
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.
