Fighting For Life: A Call for Voices of Experience


"The key to the ending of abortion is the voice of the post-abortive woman."

The following quotes are taken from a Nancy Leigh DeMoss radio program. Click on the picture to view the whole transcript.

To those who are post-abortive, please read this and consider if you are called to share your experience.

Nancy: "It seems that if we’re going to have any real serious advances in this whole movement of choosing life, we’ve also got to deal with the way of thinking about sex and purity. That’s where the floodgates are, in the worldly view of sexuality. Promiscuity is what is putting so many women in the position of having to make that kind of choice."

Jason: "I think we’re making progress there, too. All the studies show a polarization among young people. We’re seeing more and more young people choosing chastity, but we’re also seeing more and more young people living more reckless and dangerous lives.

In the 1970s and 1980s, there was a general culture of—I hate to use this word—a “tepid” promiscuity. They were promiscuous. But now we see young people who are very, very, very promiscuous.

But then, there are more and more young people who are choosing chastity.

You asked if we’re going to win. And I think, yes, because the culture of death—the seeds of its own destruction are in it. Pornography is devastating our young people. But the fruit of this devastation is that these young people are then inoculating, I think, the kids that are going to come up behind them.

Why are more people today that are pro-life? Why are 72% of those under 30 pro-life? Planned Parenthood cannot lie to them. Young people have become ever more sophisticated with their messaging. The abortion industry is spending millions and millions of dollars trying to shape their opinion, but they can’t. And why not?

Because so many of them have direct experience with abortion, whether it was their own abortion or an abortion a friend had. You cannot lie to somebody after they’ve been directly involved in abortion.

The abortion industry is good at silencing them. But we are going to end abortion. And it’s going to happen so fast. I think we’re approaching the tipping point. The key to the ending of abortion is the voice of the post-abortive woman, because the culture of death is supported by this worldview of relativism.

But moral relativism only accepts personal experience as truth. So they hear the women who’ve had abortions. The dictatorship of moral relativism—within its own self, it cannot silence the subjective opinion of women who have had abortions. That’s why I [also] think the testimony of men who’ve had abortions is so strong."


Moral relativism only accepts personal experience as truth-- please, share your truth. Help save the lives of unborn babies and the futures of their parents.

If you are willing to share, please contact me. You will remain anonomous-- let's talk about how your story can be used to shape the world.

In awe of your strength,
