“How can I support the pro-life cause when I can’t go anywhere?” one blog reader asked me. Great question! How can we be pro-life during the pandemic? I’ve shared my story of how I became pro-life here on this blog before. I also shared about participating in the 2020 Texas Rally For Life this past January. During the summer of 2019, I volunteered at a pregnancy resource center by helping with childcare while their parents were in parenting classes. I… Read more »
Back in January, I went to Texas’ Rally For Life. At the rally we heard Clair Culwell, an abortion survivor, speak. My friend Katie told me about Melissa Ohden who is also an abortion survivor and speaks against abortion. Melissa had written a book called You Carried Me and I decided to read it to learn more about her story. Oh. My. Goodness! I could not put this book down! I loved this book so much! This post includes… Read more »
I’m so excited to announce a new series my friend Katie and I are doing on the Coffee With Kara podcast! Each month we will be recommending a pro-life book and answering a question about abortion/the pro-life movement. I met Katie in May 2019 at a sidewalk counseling training. The training was held 45 minutes away from where I live and when I got there I went to a table and sat down by two smiling women. A few minutes later,… Read more »
On Saturday, I went to my first ever Rally for Life! I wanted to share that experience with you! I went with my friend Katie. We got to Austin around 12:30ish and walked over to the capital where everyone was rallying. I had to take a picture in front of the capital! I hadn’t been there since a fourth-grade field trip. And I absolutely love my new “Women’s Rights Begin in the Womb” t-shirt! (Affiliate link.) … Read more »
Confession: I book-hop. Meaning, I tend to jump from one book to the next without finishing the first one… only to come back to the first and finish it before I finish the five other books I’ve started. When it comes to the pro-life books on this list, I’m no different. And so to continue my confession, I must admit that I’ve only finished one of the books on this list. I’ve only read through half of the others. But… Read more »
Hey friend! Welcome to Coffee With Kara! Today we’re chatting about something different than usual- I’m going to be sharing I started getting involved with the pro-life movement. I start off by sharing how my pro-life journey began when I saw the movie Unplanned (more details about that experience here) and how I started tip-toeing my way into the movement. And I’m going to share with you what I’ve been doing this summer to be pro-life. In addition to telling… Read more »
The story of how I decided to see the movie “Unplanned” Have you ever played the game “Never have I ever?” If not, it’s super fun. It’s a great way to pass the time when you’re waiting in a long line. Basically what happens is- Everyone starts by holding up ten fingers which represent your points. Then, someone says something that they have never done that they think the other people in the group have done. Then they say that statement, and… Read more »
