Here’s a quick reminder. Back in 2009 I was in the middle of my three years as a music leader for a small Denver area church. The pastor did an excellent job of equipping the saints. And it was a church with a strong, abolitionist, pro life foundation. So, a definite win-win place to worship God.
Plus, they led the charge to establish the personhood of the child in the mother’s womb. That whole movement was not only up against the abortion industry but also the other Christian and “pro life” organizations who thought (and think) the abolition stand is unworkable.
They refuse to see the win-win.
I wanted to do what I could to encourage them to keep going. So I wrote the song, We Win, and my friend Jason Troyer produced a video.

We win because God wins.
I’m talking about Christians of course. And when I say “we win,” it’s about the struggles all human beings face in this life. As you know, too many people, most in fact, would rather serve themselves and thumb their noses at God and His command to love and serve others. That’s a recipe for losing and losers.
And that’s why I’m grateful and thankful for YOU. Because you understand and follow the “golden rule.”
But just in case you know someone who’s NOT on the side against God, I urge you to talk to them while it’s still not too late. And it’s only too late when they take their last breath. I also want to encourage you to hang in there during all the talk about how the world is circling the drain. It could be that the final “freedom flush” is just around the corner.
But remember, the last book in the Bible gives us a peek at what’s coming. And it’s amazing.
So, hang in there.
We Win
It should be so easy
To just see we’re not free
As long as the innocent die.
To say that it’s legal
We spit on the eagle
Who stands for what we once held high.
It’s hard when we count up the cost,
And a million more lives have been lost.
True love won’t give up or give in.
Hang in there. It’s worth it. We win.
It’s not law. We got law.
And we saw that each law
Kept taking us further from truth.
When logic and reason
Don’t have their due season,
The lies end up long in the tooth.
So work hard and take time to pray
For lives to be saved every day.
True love won’t give up or give in.
Hang in there. It’s worth it. We win.
Hang in there…we have to see it through.
It’s worth it…watch how it changes you.
