Recorded live at Care Net’s 2025 National Conference in Charlotte, NC, this special CareCast features Dr. Albert Mohler—president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary—just minutes after his keynote. In a packed convention center celebrating Care Net’s 50th anniversary, Dr. Mohler and Roland Warren trace the life issue back to first principles: God’s creation order, the centrality of the family, and the unblushing authority of the gospel.
Across the conversation, they connect cultural dots most people only see in isolation—abortion, the sexual revolution, no-fault divorce, contraception ideology, and today’s autonomy push—and show how unraveling any thread tears the whole fabric. Then they point forward: a church-and-family strategy that moves beyond “save the baby” to discipling mothers, fathers, and children for generations.

More Details from this Episode of CareCast
#1 Where conviction begins: creation order vs. cultural unraveling
- Post-Roe we’ve seen how abortion has become bundled with divorce laws, the sexual revolution, and autonomy ideology. Deny creation order in one place and you eventually deny it everywhere.
- Abortion, divorce laws, and so on—these aren’t a set of disconnected issues; it’s one rebellion against God’s design.
#2 Start at the smallest platoon: the family—mother, father, child, church
- Genesis 1–2 puts the family at the foundation—male and female, fruitful union, one flesh. Weaken that most basic unit and every larger institution weakens. Let’s call men what they are in this moment: fathers.
- Our data says the man is the most influential voice in an abortion decision. If we don’t reach the father, we won’t get God’s design for family. That’s why we’re elevating fatherhood and encouraging “Joseph Project” models that surround mom and baby with a husband/father and a church.
#3 From bad news to good news: the gospel that makes disciples, not just decisions
- The gospel is only good because the bad news is real—we’re dead in sin. Christ died and rose for sinners; that’s the hope that turns crisis into mercy.
- That’s why Care Net is not just pro-life—we’re pro-abundant life: rescuing, restoring, and discipling families who live and love like Jesus.
