As many of you know, HOPE provides roughly 50 to 60 baby showers every single year. These showers are a consistent highlight to our year as we get to experience the love of a mother for her child, the outpouring of support from our community, and the impact love has on broken situations. We recently [...]
Mother Jones recently featured an article discussing abortion in the modern era. We are living in a very progressive time. That’s right, our phones are now super computers, cars are driving themselves, and abortion doctors are seeing patients via teleconferencing. The author of the Mother Jones piece attempts to make the case for “remote abortions.” [...]
This week I made the trip to Washington D.C. to join over a thousand pregnancy center workers for a conference with Care Net aimed at bettering our work across this country. This week we will worship, network, learn, and celebrate as we reflect on the past and look forward to the future of the life [...]
Intellectual consistency and honesty is very important to me. Unfortunately, however, we live in a clickbait headline-driven world where intellectual consistency and honesty tends to take the back seat. We are seeing this type of faux journalism more and more as our political culture continues to careen into a polarizing heap of nonsense. What is [...]
I love this time of year as we await cooler weather, another school year, and Friday night lights.

If you are on social media, watch cable news, or know a millennial, you may have heard the phrase safe space. We have seen these spaces take shape, predominately, on college campuses, but today I want to let you in on a little secret. These spaces were not started by my generation, millennials, to air [...]
In recent weeks, you probably read about Charlie Gard and his fight for life. You can read in detail about his family’s story here, here, and most recently here. I am not going to rehash the story, but I would encourage you to visit the links provided and familiarize yourself with the Gard family. As [...]
Healthcare is dominating the headlines today. It doesn’t matter where you go for your news; we are being bombarded with CBO analyses, political posturing, and finger pointing. Those on the left are attempting to maintain perceived gains while those on the right attempt to completely deconstruct much of the last eight years as they seek [...]
Many will use Father’s Day as a day to point out the failures of men in child-rearing. This is not my motivation today. I have written in the past about the role of a father versus the role of a dad. How one is distant and one is engaged. I will not rehash that here [...]
