“I
was terrified that some one would find out I was in
a support group Bible Study for women that had abortions.
No one found out. But now I am the one telling people
because I want everyone to know that God loves us and
forgives us no matter what our sin is. For over 35 years
I kept my shame and pain hidden in the darkness rather
than risk someone finding out about my abortions. The
Bible Study was a safe place for me to share my experience
with other women and find God’s healing love.
I am not the same person I was before the Bible Study.
It changed my life.”
Chris, age 50
“I
had pushed back my abortion for over 30 years and it
all came back to haunt me. Then I attended Forgiven
& Set Free Bible Study. What a difference. God truly
does forgive and cast our sins as far as the east is
to the west. I did indeed feel free from the ordeal
and it made me want to help others. I recommend this
Bible Study to anyone who suffers from a past abortion.
Don’t wait. Feel His forgiveness.” Julie,
age 53
“The
Bible Study was life changing for me. I felt God’s
unconditional love for the first time in my life. I
was able to forgive myself and know that God forgave
me. I was able to grieve for my babies and know that
they forgave me and were in heaven with Jesus.”
Alice, age 56
“A
friend of mine kept telling me about the Bible Study
and how it was helping women deal with their abortion
experience. And I kept telling her I was fine and didn’t
need a Bible Study. But thru this Bible Study I came
to know God’s love and forgiveness for me. I also
saw how my abortions had affected my life in so many
negative ways. God showed me that the wounded parts
of me can be healed and my life can be different with
His help.” Ellie, age 55
Psalm 107:20 says "He sent forth his Word and
healed them; He rescued them from the grave."
I am eternally grateful to God for sending His
Son-THE Word Made Flesh-to heal me and rescue me
from the grave. Through Forgiven and Set Free
God showed me I no longer had to punish myself for taking
my baby's life...Jesus took my punishment on the cross
for all my sins...even the abortion. God showed
me that satan was using the guilt I felt to steal and
destroy (John 10:10) my marriage, my relationship
with my young sons and to even rob our family of the
blessing of another child. I was able to forgive
myself, accept God's forgiveness, and mourn for the
baby I aborted in 1988. God is FAITHFUL!
Exactly nine months to the day from when we held the
memorial service for our babies, I was coming home from
the hospital with a beautiful baby girl!! I
am not proud of my past, but I am not ashamed any longer. He
has set this captive free!...and I rejoice in my God,
my Savior...and I give all the glory to Him, my Lord
Jesus Christ, as I lay this life at His Feet.
Cheryl Baker, age 44
The
support group Bible Study was truly a blessing
for me. I never even realized how much pain I was holding
in, and how much it was affecting my life. Praise God
for this bible study, for I am truly forgiven and set
free.
Grace, age 37
I
never imagined how deeply God would heal my soul at
the beginning of the study! Confused, guilty and
ashamed, I silently suffered for 22 years. As
a result of this study, I feel so loved and so forgiven!
I finally feel that I can be of service to other women
affected by abortion and I am abundantly grateful for
that privilege! Mary, age 37
