Plot

Pro-life activists regularly hear the attacks from abortion advocates: "You just want to punish women. You don't do anything to help children once they're born." More Than Kindness lays out what Christians and other pro-lifers are doing to help women who choose life rather than abortion. The Olaskys show where new programs based on a Christian worldview are needed. Here are practical, Biblical solutions to the complex issues of single-parenting and adoption--and a positive, pro-life alternative to conventional wisdom. "More Than Kindness explodes the myth that the pro-life movement is not compassionate. I wish abortion rights supporters would have the courage to read it." --Dr. Robert P. Dugan, Jr., National Association of Evangelicals "The Olaskys effectively challenge pro-lifers to practice the sanctity of human life ethic by offering in-dept help to women facing crisis pregnancies." --Thomas A. Glessner, Executive Director, Christian Action Council "The Olaskys have broken through the muddle surrounding crisis childbearing. Their recommendations offer hope for these women, their children, and society as a whole." --Frederica Mathewes-Green, Feminists for Life "Finally, a book that goes beyond political slogans and provides a carefully researched, readable, and timely Christian alternative to common wisdom." --Terry Schlossberg, Presbyterians Pro-Life "This brilliant new book won't end America's tortured debate over abortion, but it should." --George E. Grant, Executive Director, Coral Ridge Ministries
