More than kindness

More than kindness

By Susan Olasky

Book Description

In a world where compassionate action often gets overshadowed by political rhetoric, Susan Olasky presents a thoughtful examination of how faith communities can genuinely support women facing difficult pregnancy decisions. This book addresses the common criticism that pro-life advocates care only about birth, not what happens afterward.

Olasky explores the practical ways Christians and other pro-life supporters are creating meaningful assistance for women who choose to continue their pregnancies. Rather than offering empty platitudes, she documents real programs and initiatives that provide tangible help to mothers and children. The book delves into the complex realities of single parenting and adoption, presenting solutions grounded in Christian principles.

More Than Kindness challenges readers to move beyond theoretical discussions toward concrete action. Olasky demonstrates how faith-based approaches can address the multifaceted needs of women in crisis pregnancies, offering alternatives to conventional responses. The book serves as both a defense of pro-life compassion and a practical guide for those seeking to embody their values through service.

For readers interested in the intersection of faith and social action, this work provides a framework for understanding how spiritual convictions can translate into meaningful support systems. Olasky's approach emphasizes that true pro-life commitment extends far beyond political positions to encompass ongoing care and community support.
