This powerful message confronts us with the biblical truth about the sanctity of human life while addressing the deeper spiritual disease of 'heartlessness' or being 'without natural affection.' Through the shocking story of Athaliah in 2 Kings 11—a woman so consumed by ambition that she murdered her own grandchildren to seize power—Pastor Tyler Warner and Calvary Chapel Trussville see a mirror held up to our modern culture. The sermon weaves together Psalm 139's beautiful imagery of God knitting us together in the womb with Jeremiah's testimony that God knew us before we were formed, establishing that life begins at conception and carries divine purpose from the very start. But beyond the political debate, we're challenged to examine how our society systematically trains people out of their God-given natural affections—the instinctive love between parent and child, the joy of family, the beauty of commitment. We're shown how modern culture portrays marriage, children, and family life as inconveniences rather than blessings, leading both men and women to value career, pleasure, and independence over the profound meaning found in raising the next generation. The message doesn't shy away from the hard truth that abortion is a grievous sin, yet it extends radical grace: there is no sin—not even this one—that falls outside the reach of Christ's atoning blood. For anyone carrying the weight of past choices, the invitation is clear: Jesus offers complete forgiveness and the chance to be defined not by our worst moments but by His redemptive love.
