In 1984, President Ronald Reagan issued a presidential proclamation designating the Sunday closest to January 22—the day the Supreme Court issued its infamous Roe v. Wade decision—as National Sanctity of Human Life Day. While, unfortunately, not every President since Reagan has followed the practice of such proclamation, Christians continue to recognize the date as a significant reminder that by all means we must continue to celebrate the sanctity of life.
Brad Mattes (President of Life Issues Institute and speaker for the daily 1:00 feature “Life Issues”) hosts an all-new 26:00 (Hope out of Tragedy). In this year’s special, host Brad Mattes shares a powerful reminder about the value of every human life.

Psalm 127:3-4 “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth.”
