Why I Devoted My Life to Fight Abortion – Mark Harrington

I have spent 25 years working full-time to save babies from abortion. My mission began in the final days of the Operation Rescue movement and continued for over a decade leading the Genocide Awareness Project for the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform (CBR). In 2011, I turned to stories from the Freedom Rides of the 1960s. Reading and watching testimonies of men and women— black and white — boarding buses together to expose racism sketched out a plan for our first Justice Ride. Today, on the program,...

Them Before Us: How to Prevent Children from Becoming Commodities – Katy Faust

Laws around parenthood are rapidly changing. Mothers and fathers are now considered legally optional, and biology is being replaced by “intent” to parent. Functionally, that makes children commodities to be cut and pasted into any/every adult relationship. Unlike adoption, which seeks to protect children by requiring adults to undergo vetting and screening prior to placement, new parenthood laws award children to whichever adult has the money and means to acquire them. And that is an injustice t...

Defending Life State by State- Troy Newman

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned on June 24, the abortion industry has been scrambling to survive. Changes in each state, reflecting the overall national landscape, are occurring every day. Clinics are closing and reopening. Lawsuits are being filed. Trigger bans and other pro-life laws are being blocked, unblocked, and blocked again. Because we recognize how important this information is to Americans who care about protecting life in the womb, we are doing all that is within our power to keep y...

Responding to Biden’s Abortion Lies

Also, Mark will share plans to take on a pro-abortion amendment to the Michigan Constitution and other efforts to stop abortion advocates from expanding preborn child-killing in t...

Roe is Dead: Now Let’s End Abortion – Janet Porter

The US Supreme court has overturned Roe v. Wade and dozens of abortion facilities have closed and states are moving swiftly to protect the unborn. Today, I speak to the architect of the Heartbeat Bill, Janet Porter, who began the process over a decade ago of passing anti-abortion laws aimed at the heart of Roe. Janet will tell her story of how God gave her the vision to create this innovative legislation that ultimately led to the overturning of Roe. She will provide us with a roadmap for post-R...

Roe is Dead! Live from SCOTUS

Where were you when Roe was aborted? It's a question we'll be asking for a long time. Over the weekend, the US Supreme Court handed down its decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.

In this episode, the Created Equal team is live in front of the Supreme Court, celebrating this ruling, along with many other prominent leader...

Abortion Terrorism: The Threat of Jane’s Revenge – Jim Harden

Recently, radical abortion activists firebombed the office of pro-life groups in Wisconsin and Oregon, burned a pregnancy center in Buffalo, NY, and vandalized over a dozen churches and pregnancy centers. In Wisconsin, pro-abortion terrorists left a threatening message saying, “If abortions aren’t safe, then you aren’t either.” Jane’s Revenge has taken responsibility in some of these cases. According to a bulletin issued by the National Terrorism Advisory System on June 7, more attacks on pro-li...

Pro-Life and Abolition - Samuel Sey | BONUS EPISODE

In this bonus episode, Samuel Sey and I dig deeper into the political strategies to secure justice. Pro-life legislators aren't creating discrimination, they are curtailing discrimination. They are faced with a choice between reducing abortion on the way to outlawing it altogether or just making a statement. William Wilberforce was in principle a moral absolutist, but in practice a strategic and tactical incrementalist—as are pro-lifers today. In that legal environment, the principled pro-lifer ...

After Roe: Equal Protection and Prosecuting Lawbreakers – Samuel Sey

In this episode, my guest, Samuel Sey, will discuss with me some of the emerging political challenges pro-life advocates are facing in the aftermath of Roe v. Wade . One such issue is whether abortion bans should specifically exempt women from prosecution for illegal abortions. The NRLC recently released an Open Letter to state lawmakers directing them to exempt women from prosecution of illegal abortions in states that attempt to outlaw abortion. For those of you who missed the letter, here is ...

Standing for the 2363 – Jena Powell

In this episode, my guest is Ohio House Representative Jena Powell. We discuss her bill to end abortion modeled after the Texas Heartbeat Law that authorizes private individuals to sue anyone performing or aiding in abortions and will protect preborn humans from fertilization. With the imminent overturning of Roe v. Wade , state legislatures need to move expeditiously to enact protections for the unborn. The Texas Heartbeat Law has survived in the courts, and Ohio House Bill 480 is patterned aft...

Theory of Change: A Reconsideration of the Strategy to Abolish Abortion – Blaise Alleyne

On this episode, my guest, Blaise Alleyne, Eastern Outreach Director for the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform, will discuss how the theory of change works backwards from the goal to figure out what must be done to achieve it. Rather than just working forwards and asking, "what can I do?", CCBR has established a way of strategic thinking that works backwards, asking "what must be done?" This is a powerful paradigm shift that transformed how CCBR approaches pro-life strategy locally in Toron...

Is Roe Overturned? Q and A with Attorney Katie Short

On this special episode, Mark will answer questions about the breaking news that Justice Samuel Alito has written a draft majority opinion overturning Roe v. Wade . Politico is reporting that a draft majority opinion written by Justice Alito has overturned Roe . This comports with speculation last week that Chief Justice Roberts wasn't writing the majority decision and Alito was. If true, Roberts will likely join the liberals in dissent. Some of the questions to be answered are: Is Roe overturne...

What Would Jesus Do? A Guide to Successful Social Reform - Mark Harrington

Recent events in Washington, DC have once again disclosed the gruesome nature of abortion. These events have demonstrated the powerful tactic of displaying victim imagery in the public square. For decades, pro-lifers have debated whether these images change public opinion. The fact is the evidence is overwhelming. Social reformers have never been successful in outlawing injustice by covering it up. Today on the program, Mark lays out the case for why anti-abortion advocates should use abortion v...

Paradigm Shift: 2 Key Tactics Needed to Win in a Post Roe World

We’ve recorded many of the stories of saved babies and you can watch them by going to Created Equal’s YouTube page. What is true about the effectiveness of abortion victim images is also true about ultrasound images.

Abortion Violence and the End of Civil Society - Mark Harrington

Who can forget the horrific photo of embattled New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signing the reprehensible “Abortion Till Birth” bill in 2019? Recently, Created Equal led a coalition of like-minded pro-life groups to conduct an urban tour in New York City. During the 22 hours of outreach, approximately 86,000 people were reached.

Becoming a Threat to the Great Reset – Bill Federer

Klaus Schwab, President of the World Economic Forum, has called for a great worldwide reset. After the invasion of Kuwait, President George H. W. Bush called for new world order. Rahm Emmanuel exhorted his fellow leftists to never let a crisis go to waste. Now, the invasion of Ukraine is being seized upon to realign nations. God is pushing Christians to make critical decisions as to whether we will go along with the co-opting of the world’s wealth and the creating of a new world order, or reject...

Thinking Carefully About Infertility and IVF - Stephanie Gray Connors

In 1999, I was with Center for Bio Ethical Reform (CBR) leading the Genocide Awareness Project (GAP). We were invited to take the display to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC by UBC Students for Life. Upon are arrival in Vancouver, UBC demanded CBR pay $10K for “security fees.” Instead of paying the fee, we sued the university. Despite that setback we still were able to train students in pro-life apologetics. That is when I met the student leader for UBC Students for Life, Step...

The Invasion of Ukraine, End Times Prophecy, and the Second Coming – Gary DeMar

Nearly every modern-day prophecy book comes to the same conclusion. Russia is Ezekiel’s “Gog,” with its leader being the “prince of Rosh.” However, the Hebrew word Rosh means “chief” or “head” and has nothing to do with Russia. On today’s episode Gary DeMar responds to the assumption that Russia and the current invasion of Ukraine are fulfilling Bible prophecy based on Ezekiel 38-39. Gary also responds to the questions the disciples ask Jesus about His coming and the “end of the age.” If you bel...
