Abby Johnson shares how a series of small compromises, over several years, almost derailed her life. As a teenager, Abby sought the attention of men, which resulted in her first pregnancy and abortion. Believing that Planned Parenthood helped poor women get real health care, she became a model employee of her local center, until she witnessed an ultrasound-guided abortion. She was devastated. Abby encourages her audience to be counter-cultural and boldly fight for the lives of pre-born children. Your gift to support our Option Ultrasound program will equip pregnancy medical clinics across the country with ultrasound machines, resources, and sonography training for nurses, so that a mother considering abortion can see her baby, hear that tiny heartbeat . . . and be moved to choose life. And your gift today will be DOUBLED — dollar for dollar — to save TWICE THE LIVES! https://donate.focusonthefamily.com/don-daily-broadcast-product-2024-06-11?refcd=1978610 Get More Episode Resources https://www.focusonthefamily.com/episodes/broadcast/overcoming-abortion-and-becoming-a-force-for-life/#featured-resource-cta We'd love to hear from you!
