The testimony of a new believer is a powerful witness to the work of the Lord. However, there are some biblical principles as we consider plugging new Christians into ministry on the sidewalks at an abortion center. Join us as we share some of those principles and some of our experiences in training up and leading new believers in this ministry.

Should New Believers Minister on the Sidewalk?

God is raising up people young and old to be a voice for the voiceless at the darkest places in our nation. One of our Love Life Missionaries Jena serves the Lord on the sidewalks and reaching out to churches in Virginia. In this episode, she shares her testimony and what the Lord has used in her life to encourage and challenge her in serving Him in this difficult ministry. 

She’s Young But Reaches Out in Boldness

The Scripture says "The righteous are as bold as a lion!" but we don't always feel bold. We all deal with fear and timidity or with pride and arrogance. In this episode, we talk about how to minister on the sidewalk with a humble confidence that the Bible calls boldness.

Reaching Out in Boldness

We hear various objections to our ministry on the sidewalk. You’re making me feel bad is just one of many phrases we hear. In this episode, we explore what the Bible has to say about this statement and how we can graciously answer when we hear this.

You’re Making Me Feel Bad

God has given us so many amazing people that serve on the sidewalks. These folks often come from very broken backgrounds but have been redeemed by the Lord and want to honor Him by serving in this ministry. Jen has been serving in Charlotte for about 2 years and has a powerful testimony of how God redeemed her from past abortions and now how He uses her to reach others at the abortion centers.

Interview with A Post-abortive Sidewalk Counselor

On a regular basis we see Uber drivers and other service people coming to the abortion centers. They come for various reasons and the Lord can use them to save lives. In this episode we share some impactful stories of how God can use interactions with taxi drivers, Uber drivers, and other service people to change lives and we share some principles of how to interact with them.

Reaching Uber Drivers at the Abortion Centers

In this episode, we play for you another mock session. This mock session is a male counselor talking to the mother of an addicted pregnant woman. There are certainly some unique challenges presented so we hope this will be a blessing to you. https://sidewalks4life.com/mother-of-addicted-pregnant-adult-daughter/

Mock Session - Talking to A Grandmother

Over the years in sidewalk ministry, we have encountered situations where a mother who chooses life at the abortion center ends up having a miscarriage. Unfortunately in your ministry at the abortion center, you may likely deal with this situation as well. In this episode, we share our experiences with this and some Biblical insights that will equip you in handling these situations. https://leaningonherbeloved.com/hope-after-miscarriage/  https://www.iwantthemtoremember.com/healing-after-miscarriage/ 

A Mom Who Chooses Life Miscarries, What Do You Do?

We know that abortion centers are not safe places. They certainly aren’t safe for the babies that are killed but they can also be unsafe for the mothers who are aborting. Because of that, there will be emergency situations that arise with the possibility that an ambulance showing up at the abortion center. Join us we talk through some of the best ways to deal with this if it does happen. https://sidewalks4life.com/what-to-do-if-an-ambulance-arrives/ 

What Do You Do When An Ambulance Shows Up At the Abortion Center?

This episode is part 2 of last week’s episode. In this episode, Vicky shares the Gospel with “Cathy” who is walking into the abortion center and claims to be an agnostic. We pray that this mock session will equip and encourage you. https://sidewalks4life.com/sharing-gospel-with-agnostic-mom/ 

Sharing the Gospel - Mock Session

We encounter all types of people at the abortion centers so it’s helpful to be prepared to minister to people of different persuasions. In this episode, we do another mock session this time of Vicky ministering to a young lady who claims to be an agnostic and is concerned that her baby may be disabled. There are some unique challenges presented in this conversation and we think it will help equip you as you minister at your local abortion center. https://sidewalks4life.com/the-baby-might-die-be-disabled/

Ministering to An Agnostic - Mock Session

By God's grace, we get to see moms choose life at the abortion centers and even hold their precious babies months later. However, there are times when we minister to a mom who chooses life one day but sadly goes back to the abortion center and has an abortion. As followers of Jesus, how do we deal with that situation in a way that shows the mercy of God but also upholds the standards of scripture. Join us as we talk this through. https://sidewalks4life.com/what-if-they-turn-back-to-abortion/

What if they turn back to abortion?

There are various reasons that people get involved with Sidewalk Outreach ministry. Many of those motivations are good but can cause problems if they become or remain our driving motivation. In this episode, we explore various motivations and talk about what we believe should be the primary motivation for ministry. https://sidewalks4life.com/motivation-for-sidewalk-ministry/ 

A Biblical Motivation For Sidewalk Ministry

We had a lot of positive feedback on the mock session we did a few months ago so we decided to do another one. in this episode, we listen to and critique a mock session Vicky and a local volunteer recorded with the volunteer pretending to be a victim of rape going into the abortion center. 

Victim of Rape - Mock Session

We praise God every time a woman chooses life at the abortion center. However, even though she chose life that doesn’t mean that the battle is over. Follow-up is so vital in helping her stay on track with choosing life. In this episode, we share some practical principles that we have learned over the years. https://sidewalks4life.com/when-mom-chooses-life-follow-up/
