Prominent pro-life activist Lila Rose first became passionate about the pro-life movement as a young child after picking up a book titled, A Handbook on Abortion. Seeing the graphic images left her heartbroken and was the impetus for her national efforts to save babies’ lives.
Rose, now 32, recounted in an interview with The Christian Post how her reaction to the book, which was written by the founders of National Right to Life, was an example of “the power of heartbreak and the importance to let ourselves really be heartbroken by what’s happening.”
After her encounter with A Handbook on Abortion, Rose continued to educate herself on the issue of abortion, a task that was aided by her parents’ subscription to the National Right to Life newsletter. Her passion led her to start a pro-life group in high school that she called Live Action and she eventually began giving presentations on the horrors of abortion all across her native Bay Area as a teenager and started demonstrating outside abortion clinics.
Rose continued her pro-life activism in college by going undercover posing as a pregnant girl and documenting her exchanges with Planned Parenthood staff. As an adult, she’s spent a lot of time on Capitol Hill lobbying for pro-life legislation and has become one of the most recognizable faces in the pro-life movement.
The founder and president of Live Action has now written her own book, Fighting for Life: Becoming a Force for Change in a Wounded World, which offers advice for others interested in joining the pro-life movement and issues a call for pastors and churches to start their own pro-life ministries. In the book, Rose also details what led her to convert to Catholicism.
Recalling how “abortion was almost never talked about” at her church growing up, Rose told CP that churches and people of faith have an important role to play in the pro-life movement. “I think the church, even good Christian people, are afraid of ruffling feathers. They’re afraid of offending … and many are not educated.”
“They don’t understand what’s exactly happening. They sense that something’s wrong in our culture, there are problems, but we’re so desensitized. Today, we’re so comfortable in many ways that sometimes we don’t see the battle that’s raging,” she added. “So the church absolutely has a role. But … if our pastors aren’t standing up and preaching the truth on Sunday mornings, and … if our church doesn’t have a pro-life ministry, the change begins with us.”

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
