Pro- Life, Pro Choice, what does it all mean and what do we as Christians actually subscribe to? Goose shares a fresh perspective on this topic and maybe another way to phrase how we feel about this topic, as there is always a lot of debate and the opposition likes to try to argue obtuse points to "prove" that we as Christians are in fact, not Pro-Life.
