It’s easy to think of life issues just in terms of our local, national level…but what about across our home’s borders – on an international level? Are life issues the same from country to country? Or do different countries have a greater or lesser concern for various “life issues?” To remind of us a need for a life ministry that expands across nations’ borders is special guest Jamielynn Tinkey Flores, a nurse and missionary in Latin America. She’ll talk about how the Christian Church at large must have a faithful and unified voice on life issues, but how the approach may be different from continent to continent.
