Description
When a women receives an unexpected positive pregnancy test, abortion often seems like the best or only option for a fulfilling future. Unplanned Grace beautifully challenges that myth, equipping readers to support abortion-vulnerable women with love that values life in every way. Writing for the nonprofit organization Save the Storks, Natasha and Brittany draw on personal interviews, inspiring stories, and eye-opening facts to help readers understand: - How economics, relationships, and health affect a woman's pregnancy decision - The value of having empathy for women facing unplanned pregnancies - The enormous potential churches have to support women in crisis Writing not just from a "pro-birth" perspective but from a "pro-abundant life" prospective, Unplanned Grace is an ideal resource for churches and individuals who want to make a difference in the pro-life movement. Unplanned Grace presents stories, research, and compelling interviews to help readers empathize with women considering abortion. Both practical and inspiring, this much-needed book equips readers to work with pregnancy resource centers to make a positive and lasting impact on their communities for life. Natasha Smith and Brittany Smith work with Save the Storks, a nonprofit ministry that exists to inspire cultural change by empowering strategic partners, like pregnancy resource centers, to serve and value every life. They believe that to end abortion, people must be educated on its realities and equipped to respond with compassion and love.
