Two levels of training will be offered this year, each designed to equip pro-life ambassadors to communicate the pro-life message confidently and graciously without the need of vitriol or angry dialogue.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><b>Pro-Life Apologetics 101<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0will help first-time attendees simplify the abortion debate by answering two crucial questions, <em><i>What are the preborn?<\/i><\/em>\u00a0&amp; <em><i>What makes humans valuable? <\/i><\/em>You\u2019ll learn to make the case for life and refute logical fallacies of pro-choice rhetoric in a compelling manner.

This track equips students to engage one of the most common philosophical arguments for abortion: bodily autonomy. Participants will explore the deeper battle of ideas behind the abortion debate by examining competing views of human value \u2013 the Substance View vs. the Functionalist View. Students will learn why these competing frameworks lead to very different conclusions about abortion and human rights, and they will be trained to thoughtfully challenge common pro-choice arguments while defending the value of every human being.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">To register for this event (the cost is $20.00, continental breakfast and lunch provided) please email: <\/span><strong style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'Plus Jakarta Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; font-style: inherit; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"mailto:right2lifenwi@gmail.com\">right2lifenwi@gmail.com<\/a> or register below:\u00a0<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dce43ab elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"dce43ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/square.link\/u\/hxj7rkqI\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">REGISTER ONLINE HERE<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8573bf4 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8573bf4\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ef238f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0ef238f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-683x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5395\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/rtlnwi.org\/nwi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ianspencer-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bac9eea elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bac9eea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><b>IAN SPENCER BIO:<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ian Spencer is the Director of Programs for\u00a0<a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.createdequal.org\/\"><u>Created Equal<\/u><\/a>.
