We dive into several chapters related to abortion and desire. We also discuss Carl F.H. Henry and empathy. Should we empathize with people who want to sin? Should Christians be whole-life pro-life? How are Christians to think about abortion today? What is the role of desire and confession in the Christian life? When does a desire become sinful?Join my Pateron - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisSam’s Website - https://samuelparkison.wordpress.com/Sam’s Twitter - https://twitter.com/samuel_parkisonFirst Interview (YouTube) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmUWt-yTK-o&t=7sFirst Interview (Podcast) - https://www.buzzsprout.com/1249781/episodes/7598953“Thinking Christianly” - https://amzn.to/3nsXjZ7Support the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/
