Exploring Faith and Ethics
Bioethics in the Modern Church
Welcome to the the Anglican Anglican Bioethics Center (ABC) website! This website is designed to strengthen ministry and help clergy shepherd God’s people with greater confidence in these challenging times. In a rapidly advancing world of bioethics — with issues such as artificial wombs, designer babies, surrogacy, genetic selection, and more — this new website provides clear, Biblically grounded guidance for clergy, Christians, and thoughtful individuals like you.

Our Mission
The Anglican Bioethics Center applies Biblical principles to life, technology, and medicine, equipping Christians to navigate contemporary bioethical challenges with wisdom. We uphold the inherent dignity of human life and advocate for the responsible stewardship of technology and medical advancements in alignment with God’s design for human flourishing.
Our Approach
At the Anglican Bioethics Center, we believe that Scripture is the inerrant and sufficient Word of God, providing timeless guidance for ethical challenges, including modern bioethics. While the Bible does not explicitly mention every emerging technology or medical advancement, it offers a clear moral framework to help Christians apply God’s truth to all aspects of life. Our approach to bioethics begins and ends with Scripture, affirming the intrinsic worth of every human being from the moment of fertilization and recognizing our responsibility to steward technology and medicine with wisdom.
