 SUGGESTIONS FOR THE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL TEACHER, SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER, YOUTH PASTOR/LEADER and HOMESCHOOLING PARENT

Contents of this Unit

 

Written by: Bev Cielnicky retired public school teacher and President of Crusade for Life

Introduction: The following are suggestions for a general education on pro-life issues.  There are excellent resources listed for students who are doing research articles, term papers, speeches, debates, book reports, drama productions and so on from a pro-life perspective. Many of the groups listed have wonderful brochures for young people. Some have free material. * Recommended.

There are numerous web sites that address the life issues at all levels of maturity.  As a teacher, parent or youth leader, please look over the different sites before giving out the web addresses to your students to make sure it is right for your class or student.

When young people enter into the high school years and then into college, they need to be well grounded in pro-life principles or the world will turn them away. Here are four areas that need to be addressed.

  1. Keeping the young person pure.

  2.  
  3. Helping the youth pastor/leader/teacher and parent prepare pro-life students.
     
  4. Helping young people to become salt and light in their school – public and private - and community through personal interaction, debates and writing assignments.
     
  5. Getting the young person involved in a pro-life ministry and help for the post-abortive person and for the pregnant young person.

First:  Keeping the young person pure.

Psalm 119:10 NIV "How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word."

The profound wisdom found in the verse above is just as true today as it was when it was first given. Knowing and choosing to live according to Biblical truths will allow young people to avoid the pitfalls of unhealthy sexual decisions that are so prevalent today. The programs recommended below are not meant to supplant the Bible training given by the homeschooling parent, teacher, youth leader or youth pastor. Rather, they are given as additional resources to help reinforce the Judeo/Christian ethic so needed by young people everywhere.

Ronald Reagan became convinced of this as a result of watching The Silent Scream – a movie he considered so powerful and convicting that he screened it at the White House. 

More recently, it was by catching just a glimpse of what this film reveals that Planned Parenthood director and abortion advocate Abby Johnson turned and became a strong advocate for the pre-born.   contact@amport.com * The Miracle of Baby Samuel by Dr. Frank Joseph

Third:  Helping young people to become salt and light in their school and community through personal interaction, debates and writing assignments – both in Christian and public school.

Here are just some of the subjects a student might do research on, write essays on or speak about:

  • Developing unborn child
     
  • What abortion does to that child, to the woman and man, the family and to society – collateral damage.
     
  • Bioethical Issues

There are many excellent books on these issues but if your students don’t have access to these books, many of these web sites offer articles on these issues that can be down loaded giving credit to the author. 

There are numerous web sites that address the life issues at all levels of maturity.  As a teacher, parent or youth leader, please look over the different sites before giving out the web addresses to your students to make sure it is right for your class or student.

Remember: when young people enter into the high school years and then into college, they need to be well grounded in pro-life principles or the world will turn them away.

Fourth:  Getting the young person involved in a pro-life ministry and help for the post-abortive person and for the pregnant young person.

Introduction: When young people enter into the high school years and then into college, they need to be well grounded in pro-life principles or the world will turn them away.  One way to develop committed young people is to get them involved.  There are several different groups that teach, equip, challenge and activate young people.  If a young person has made mistakes there are groups to help with forgiveness as well as helping them through any current problems.
