No topic is more notorious for flaring tempers and causing outrage than abortion. Sometimes it seems that people are so entrenched in their beliefs that trying to persuade those on the pro-choice side of the debate to rethink their position and choose life is a lost cause. Abby Johnson's book, Unplanned shows this isn't so.
Johnson was the director of a Planned Parenthood clinic that performed abortions for eight years. A vehement advocate for the pro-choice camp, Abby Johnson seemed like the last person who would have a conversion and become a champion for Life. Unplanned chronicles her journey and her conversion story.
Filled with personality and enthusiasm, Unplanned not only tells Abby's story, but through seeing her conversion, the reader witnesses the power of prayer in the struggle to save lives from abortion, and gives insight into the quiet power of love and dedication.
Full of hope, honesty, forgiveness, and joy, Unplanned pulls no punches. It is a quick and fulfilling read, and one that educates and illuminates, without preaching or shouting on a soapbox.
