Pro-Life Magazine is a FREE digital magazine covering pro-life issues. They published an interview with me for their first issue, as well as interviews with Dr. Maureen Condic, Dr. Christopher Kaczor, Kelsey Hazzard and others.
You can get the magazine on your iPad or iPhone, or you can download a free PDF if you subscribe to their email list first.
Here are some of the questions they asked me for their piece on my work:
- Do pro-choice people see pro-lifers as combative?
- What are some common mistakes that pro-life people make, and how can we avoid them?
- What are the most common pro-choice arguments you hear today?
Here are some links to things I mentioned in the interview:
- Phil Plait speech at atheist conference. (Language warning)
- Download my sermon on fear, ignorance and apathy.
- You can also download my follow-up sermon the following year at the same church, where I responded to other common reasons that Christians don’t get more involved.
- Download my speech on faulty pro-life arguments. (You have to sign-up for my email list though.)
- Download my speech about responding to bodily rights statements with the De Facto Guardian argument. Then read our paper that goes into more detail.
Josh worked in the pro-life movement starting at age 18. After 12 years of full-time pro-life work he launched Equal Rights Institute to maximize his impact on the movement.
A sought-after speaker, Josh has spoken for more than 29,000 people in six countries and in 25 of the 50 states.
Josh’s primary passion is helping pro-life people to be more persuasive when they communicate with pro-choice people. That means ditching faulty rhetoric and tactics and embracing arguments that hold up under philosophical scrutiny.
He has publicly debated leaders from Planned Parenthood, the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL), Georgians for Choice, and one of the leading abortion facilities in Atlanta.
Josh also wants to bring relational apologetics to the pro-life movement. “Some pro-choice people will not change their mind after one conversation on a college campus. Some of them will only change their mind after dozens of conversations with a person they trust in the context of friendship.”
Josh is formerly the host of a globally-heard podcast turned radio/TV show, Life Report and the Equipped for Life Podcast. He’s also written dozens of articles for LifeNews.com and the ERI blog. He has been interviewed by the Washington Post, NPR, and Focus on the Family.
He directed the first 40 Days for Life campaign in Fresno, resulting in up to 60 lives saved.
Josh has been happily married to his wife, Hannah, for 19 years. They have three sons, Noah, William, and Eli. They live in Charlotte, North Carolina.
