This project was planned and implemented as a seminar designed to educate Christians on abortion and to motivate them to defend life. Chapter 1 provides the context, rationale, and purpose for the project. Chapter 2 presents an argument based on four passages of Scripture that the Bible dictates that Christians oppose abortion and protect the unborn. Chapter 3 summarizes historic, scientific, and cultural issues related to the sanctity of life. Chapter 4 traces the steps in planning and implementing the seminar, and chapter 5 provides an evaluation of the project.
