Life After Abortion
Countless women (and
men) have been overwhelmed
by post abortion
trauma, resulting
in fear, anxiety, pain,
and guilt. Many suffer
in silence for years
after they realize the
full toll of their choice.
While numerous civic
organizations and local
churches offer outreach
ministries that meet the
need of many in crises, a
relatively few help women cope with the aftermath
of abortion. From desperation to deliverance, Life
After Abortion takes an honest look at the undeniable
impact abortion has had on real people. Hosted by
Carol Everett, Alveda King and others.
Includes two DVDs: Disc One features the full
1 hour 46 minute production. Disc Two features
a 60 minute abridged version plus 13 additional
segments totaling 1 hour 30 minutes.
