Find a Pro-Life doctor

I understand not wanting to see an obstetrician or gynecologist who does abortions. I don't even want to see a doctor if he is a partner with or shares a practice with someone who does abortions. If you're looking for a pro-life OB/GYN, check for membership in the American Association of Pro-life Obstetricians & Gynecologists.

There are folks who are so principled against family planning that they won't see a doctor who provides it. There is a list of no-family-planning doctors of all specialties on the One More Soul blog. NFP doctors don't provide contraception of any kind.

Then there are folks who hope to avoid using any of the products or by-products of abortion in their medicine. Cog for Life has a list of pro-life doctors "willing to provide ethical alternatives to aborted fetal cell line vaccines."

The Ballad of Big Mike

Michael Oher is an amazing, inspiring modern rags-to-riches story. I loved the movie about his life which is based on the book Blind Side, so now that I've read this article, I'm going to have to read the book too. It sounds like a fairy tale, but it is really a story of a kid working amazingly hard to please the only folks who loved him, and they loved him because as Christians, it was what God asked them to do.

Michael Oher's story demonstrates many truths that are being rejected by today's society. A stable, two-parent family is essential to a child's success. Hard work pays off. A Christian school turned his life around, not government schools. It was Christian people who took him in and loved him. God had a plan for this boy, down to the design of his body and soul, which came to fruition through the obedience of His servants.
