How Baptists can create a culture of life

National Sanctity of Life Day is Jan. 22

From conception to life’s final moments, every life reflects God’s image and holds intrinsic value.

“I serve women in crisis who are facing an unplanned pregnancy. By stepping into her life with kindness, resources and practical support, I can affirm that her life and the life of her unborn child matter to God. Serving these women is about affirming their courage, bravery and immense value. It’s about showing them they are seen, known and deeply loved by their Creator,” said Caryl Watson, Arkansas Baptist Children and Family Ministries adoption specialist.

Similarly, foster families extend this message of life-affirming care by providing children with safety, love, and stability in the most challenging circumstances. Supporting life doesn’t end at birth — it means walking alongside families and children with practical care and compassion. Together, we embody the sanctity of life by responding to God’s call to defend, nurture and honor life in all its stages, ensuring that every child and family experiences the fullness of His love and provision.
