Before the Conversation
Talking about abortion can be intimidating. We can help you make dialogue meaningful and constructive from start to finish. With our conversation navigator, we believe anyone, anywhere can talk rightly about abortion.
Pray
The quickest way to ruin a conversation is to make it all about you. Ask God for guidance, wisdom, and humility. Pray that He would prepare those with whom you’ll speak.
Focus
Mentoring includes discussing difficult topics. But you cannot force someone to change their mind. Rather, your goal should be faithfulness as a mentor and ambassador of truth. And on the micro level, like apologist Greg Koukl says, focus on putting a “stone in the shoe” of the other person.
Dialogue
Conversation is a dying art. Remember that your goal is a genuine exchange of ideas—not a monologue or sermon. Real dialogue is more effective. And it’s easier, too.
