The goal of shifting the heart of our culture towards respecting and protecting the sanctity of human life is not the sole responsibility of Georgia Right to Life. We need YOU to participate as we work towards this important and necessary goal.

It is the task of each of us, individually, to engage our communities with the message of life and to provide an effective and convincing defense for personhood. To help equip Georgia communities for this task, we hope that you will find the resources included in this section to be helpful to you. Whether you are a pastor, a church leader, a student, an educator, or a citizen activist, there is something you can use here to make the case for personhood.

If you have suggestions for materials, specific requests, or questions, please contact us at stateoffice@grtl.org and let us know how we can serve you in the fight for life.

Addressing the Rape and Incest Exception

Living Proof: Why the “Life of the Mother” Claim is a Lie

This is a good news/tragic news case. The incredible good news is that scientists have discovered—and photographed—that human life begins with a flash of light. Tragically, that reality will be used to destroy embryos that don’t shine as brightly. The flash occurs...

The local church and its pastors are two vital assets that are often overlooked but are critically important to the pro-life cause.

If our churches and church leadership are unwilling or not equipped to take a stand in the fight for life, we will not win the culture.

For this reason, it is imperative that our churches and their leadership be equipped with the most powerful, relevant, and effective resources available to aid them in their stand for the sanctity of human life.

In this section of the website, you will find resources compiled from our own educational materials as well as groups from around the nation who share our goal to inspire and enable the church community to lead the way in radically shifting our culture.

If you have suggestions for materials, specific requests for your church, or questions, please contact us and let us know how we can serve you in the fight for life: stateoffice@grtl.org
