S4 08: Finding Forgiveness and Healing After Abortion with Georgette Forney

Georgette Forney is the director of Anglicans for Life and co-founder of the Silent No More Awareness campaign. At age 16, Georgette had an abortion. Even after becoming a Christian, she struggled to believe that God could forgive her. She joins us this week to share how God helped her bring her abortion into the light, receive His forgiveness, and walk free from guilt and shame. Although she describes herself as an unlikely activist, Georgette has obeyed God’s call to advocate for the preborn. By sharing her story, she helps women and men experience forgiveness, healing, and hope in Christ after abortion.     Anglicans for Life  Forgiven and Set Free by Linda Cochran  I’ll Hold You in Heaven by Jack Hayford  Tilly by Frank Peretti  Tearing Us Apart: How Abortion Harms Everything and Solves Nothing by Ryan T.

But these ideas have caused great cultural divisions and a loss of faith. Neil Shenvi and Pat Sawyer’s latest book, Critical Dilemma, is a much-needed resource to help Christians understand Critical Theory in all its forms and respond with discernment, truth, and love.
