In this groundbreaking and prophetic book Joni Shepherd raises a call to the Church, and particularly to those in spiritual authority, to break the chains of silence and shame that have bound the victims of one of modern history’s greatest moral catastrophes, abortion.
The church in general has not done the best job in the past in addressing pregnancy and abortion. Many women and their partners have secretly sought abortion because the church did not feel safe, or they did not feel they had the resources to give birth and parent a child.
How does a Christian get into a situation in which choosing abortion seems reasonable? How can an abortion effect a person’s life over the long haul? Joni unpacks her story in brutal honesty beginning with her happy childhood in a conservative Christian home.
