I once shared an office with the president of the county anti-abortion organization. No, I’m not going to debate this issue here. Rather, I asked him:
Now that you have “saved” a baby’s life, Now what?
It is now in a home where most likely the mother is poor and single and the baby is not wanted. Now what?
I don’t know if that question provided the impetus, but the organization did do some things to help mothers.
A friend was focused on “saving” people. I think that meant getting people to say that they “accepted Jesus into their life.” And I asked that friend:
Now what?
Do you just leave that person adrift while you try to add another notch on the belt?
Or, do you develop a relationship that leads the person into experiencing peace, joy, hope, calmness, and so forth? Is it a numbers game? Or a life game?
“I did this.”
“Now what?”
