Status Updates From Post Roe Reformation

In Chapter 3, Catechizing Politics, Suderman explains that catechism is repeated instruction in core beliefs. She argues the pro-life movement once held the ideal platform to teach that all humans—born and preborn—are God’s image bearers deserving equal justice. Instead, it catechized culture in error, teaching that some lives may be taken in cases like rape or incest and that women who murder should be exempt.

In Chapter 2: Eroding Ecumenicalism, Suderman issues a wake-up call: if Protestants believe in sola scriptura, it must be the hill on which every faithful Christian must die. Outsourcing anti-abortion efforts to those who reject Scripture’s authority and sufficiency risks gospel compromise. God doesn’t need alliances—He calls for unwavering obedience and has always used the courageous few to bring down giants.

In Chapter 1: Secularism Versus Sola Scriptura, Suderman exposes the pro-life movement’s compromise with secularism and emotionalism. She argues only a gospel-centered, abolitionist approach—calling abortion murder without exceptions—is biblically consistent. Powerful and convicting, it challenges Christians to stop regulating evil and start demanding justice through God’s Word.
