Small Book, Big Message

I haven't read a book this quickly in a long time. It addresses the stigma of abortion in the church, speaking to those who might erroneously feel it is "the unforgivable sin". This book is practical (advocates more crisis pregnancy centers), scientific (includes statistical & medical information), theological (contains interesting evidence against abortion from the Bible and early church writings), compassionate (this is an appeal to pastors and lay people for sensitivity), and very interesting. It has galvanized me to be more informed and more active in reaching out to vulnerable women and men who have been faced with the spectre of abortion.

Excellent

This is a powerful little book published by Focus on the Family and written by a former student of John Piper, calling the church to pro-life evangelism. It is full of moving and heart-wrenching stories, recent statistics on the abortion industry, and clear-headed biblical teaching. I read it in a day and was deeply impacted.
