Here at ERI we like to help pro-life people not be weird. About 5 years ago, a Students for Life staff person reached out to Josh asking for an example of a weird thing pro-life people do.

Many conversations about abortion succeed or fail because of your rapport, or lack thereof, with the pro-choice person. Even a perfectly articulated pro-life argument will just glance off of a combative pro-choice mind, so people who are skilled at dialogue use wisdom to build rapport and make the tone of the conversation friendly. This piece gives…

Right before we released the Equipped for Life Course, we realized that one of the videos seemed to include Virtue-Signaling.

In this piece, he offers som…

Even before ERI officially began, Josh and Tim cared a lot about helping pro-life people to think well and take pro-choice arguments seriously. They don’t think every single pro-choice argument is a good argument (there are a lot of really bad arguments on both sides), but we won’t be persuasive unless we can recognize and take the stronger pro-cho…

Sometimes it is tough to be a pro-life college student.

This piece is an outreach dialogue story. Despite Josh not being excited to write it, it went viral on lifenews.com. We suspect this had to do with the title, which could give the impression that this is one of those “The brilliant pro-life person destroys the stupid pro-choice person” posts. That’s not an attitude that we want to nourish. We think…

Josh wrote this piece a few years ago. Someone had asked him a really tough question in an email, so he decided to address the question in a blog post in case others were interested. He addressed the need to respond to this pro-choice objection relationally. To his surprise, it seemed to touch a nerve. For the past 2 years, this piece has been the …
