Abortion: My Choice, God's Grace

I would like to say that this book should be read by everyone. However, I would have to add "everyone with an open mind." This book "spoke to me" because it also examined the lives of those who did not choose abortion. One particular story was especially noteworthy: The woman asserted that she'd rather stick a needle in her eye than have the baby and give it up for adoption. [...] In good conscience, therefore, I recommend this book to others. I salute the women in the book for having the courage to tell their stories. I salute the publisher (a Christian publisher) for having the courage to publish this book.

NEEDED INFORAMTON

I read this book several years ago. I recall thinking how refreshing and helpful this information is & needed by so many women today. It is a relevant book. Initailly, I was put off by the title and some parts, which discussed God. I remember thinking how brave and lucky these women are. We all trials & tribulations to reveal about our life. I, too, had a pregnancy to deal with when I was 20 years old. I decided to be a single mom. It would have been much easier to make & face my decision after speaking to other women in a similar situation. While reading this book, I recall thinking how painful & agoninzing it must have been for some of these women to make their final choices.

Abortion: My Choice, God's Grace : Christian Women Tell Thei

This is a much needed book! The author has my Thanks because it helped me to better understand this very difficult and important issue. I think the women's stories in the book needed to be told as there is very little written detailing the experiences from Christian women who have been through an abortion. I'm sure many women are grateful! Also the book has resources of groups from both sides of the issues who are working together on how to lower abortion rates. Ms.Eggebroten is a courageous author to give the women in the book a voice of their very intensly personal and painful experience!

What a wonderful book.

This book is amazing. Anne Eggebroten, whoever she may be, is genius! This book is what every woman who, young or old, white or black, has struggled with the concept of abortion needs! The poignant stories of each woman's experience stay with the reader long after the book is closed. Any man or woman should read this book. It offers a glimpse into the many struggles women go through in the abortion process. Definitely worth a read for those whose religious beliefs clash with their liberal views, or those simply interested in the personal accounts behind a national issue. Buy It! Right Now! You will not regret it and it will be money well spent.
