139: Healing After Abortion ft. Gracey

#ShoutYourAbortion. That's what we're told, right? That abortion is a powerful, important procedure. It empowers women. It gives them strength. It gives them autonomy. 

Today's guest says hell no. 

Gracey is a wife, mother, and post-abortive woman. She's here to share her incredibly vulnerable story of getting her abortion, how she sought and received forgiveness from the Lord, and what she thinks could have possibly prevented her abortion in the first place. Gracey says we need a change of HEART to change this issue, and I couldn't agree more. I think the pro-life movement has much to learn from women who have been through the procedure—like how we can best help women in crisis pregnancy situations.
