Lisa Reasons of Birth Choice returns for week two of the adoption series.

This episode turns to a candid discussion of the abortion pill — how accessible it’s become, and the existence of “abortion pill reversal” for women who change their minds. Jerry and Becky also explore how Birth Choice’s client advocates walk alongside women considering abortion, using the biblical story of Moses’ mother as a framework for talking about adoption without fear. The conversation turns to the often-overlooked role of birth fathers in the adoption process, the tens of thousands of children waiting in foster care, and why churches need to engage more directly with the hard realities of adoption and trauma.

Topics discussed:

• The abortion pill: how it works and how easily it can be obtained
• “Abortion pill reversal” and the medical work behind it
• How Birth Choice’s advocates present adoption using the story of Moses’ mother (and a parallel with Mary, mother of Jesus)
• The legal requirement for birth fathers to waive parental rights before an adoption can proceed
• Foster care statistics — roughly 125,000 children nationally awaiting adoption
• The extra layers of support older/waiting children need (trauma, attachment)
• A call for churches to take more ownership of adoption and foster care
