Dianne Butts has produced an invaluable resource for women facing unplanned pregnancies and who may be considering abortion as a solution.
Her book, Deliver Me: Hope, Help, & Healing through True Stories of Unplanned Pregnancy, is a compilation of stories as told by women who have faced that dilemma. Some of the women in the stories chose abortion and others did not.
The stories also include the fathers, some of whom encouraged the abortion alternative while others did not.
There are no stereotypes in this book. The women whose voices we hear are from all races and ages from unmarried teenagers to married or unmarried adults with families of their own.
There is not another resource like this for girls and women facing the most difficult choice of their lives.
Lay-people, pastors, and counselors need to read this book and keep extra copies on hand to give away.
Butts approaches the issue compassionately and knowledgeably. Her book is a safe read for women who have had abortions and feel there is no one they can talk to.
I give it five stars and highly recommend it.
