By Monte Harms- standforlife.net This originally appeared on Stand For Life I am standing in front of an abortion facility to be a defender of the unborn. A woman goes in to have an abortion and totally ignores those standing on the sidewalk. Sometimes her boyfriend, father, mother, or friend who brought her will be verbally combative with the defenders. It’s spiritual warfare at its core. Part of my human nature urges me (unsuccessfully, I might add) to say or even yell: “You do know you’re killing your own baby.” “Are you out of your mind?” “Who in the world would kill their own baby?” … or tell the boyfriend…

  In the widely-viewed film 180, there is a young man named Steve with a Mohawk, tattoos, and piercings. He is also very fouled-mouth, anti-God and anti-Jewish. The first reaction to him might be is that he is a kook or “those atheists are so weird and rude.” By the end of the interaction with 180’s creator Ray Comfort, it is obvious Steve’s heart has been softened and he states that he will think about reading his Bible. Pro-life activist Bud Shaver demonstrates often how to respond to someone who states they are pro-abortion, anti-God, or just does not want Bud to be in front of the abortion facility. He…

By, Monte Harms- Stand For Life (This originally appeared on www.standforlife.net) In the last week a truck with photos of the truth has been getting a fair amount of publicity in Albuquerque. Local ABC affiliate KOAT-TV aired a story about the “truth truck” that has abortion photos on its side. Pro-life activist Bud Shaver drives the truck around town and parks it across the street from the late-term abortion facility, Southwestern Women’s Options, while he is peacefully counseling women and men at SWO. The story prompted radio talk show host Scott Stiegler to devote two hours of his show the following day to listener’s reactions to the truck and the…

By Bud Shaver (This article originally appeared on Standforlife.net) Today (Friday, June 1, 2012) as I was reaching out to abortion-minded women at the late-term abortion mill, Southwestern Women’s Options (www.lateterm.com), I was confronted by a young man who was very angry! I was as close as you get to being violently assaulted. He cursed me and asked me what I had to say about it. I told him God Bless You and if you want to talk rationally about the situation we could. He left just as quickly as he came, cursing and flipping me off as he left! This does not happen as often as one may think,…

By Bud Shaver (This article originally appeared on Standforlife.net) I am coming up on 5 years of full-time Pro-Life ministry, during this time reaching out to Church leaders, Pastors, and the Christian community in general…Christian’s for the most part think that you have to choose between fulfilling the “Great Commission” and doing anything remotely effective in engaging the abortion injustice in America. Resulting in Church budgets and resources maxed out to fulfill the “Great Commission” overseas…while neglecting to deal with the abortion Holocaust in their own communities! While we can say that we have done a great job fulfilling the “Great Commission” overseas, we have to be honest and realize…

By Monte Harms of Stand For Life On Wednesday night, April 4th, there was a packed house of several thousand at Calvary Chapel in Albuquerque, New Mexico, who watched the incredible movie “180” and an interview with its creator Ray Comfort. A table was set up for a new ministry at Calvary called 9 months, Pro-Life Movement, which was founded by Pastor Eric Lamb. The plan is to have pro-life educational classes, rallies, and other activities that include not just a few, but thousands involved. Other tables were set up for 40 Days for Life, an adoption organization called Aspen Project, and for CareNet. Watch the entire service with the…
