“Cathy Harris challenges us beyond our own personal healing to seeing with “Kingdom eyes” how we can restore the sanctity of human life by overcoming evil with good. The mission of Jesus’ church has never changed—we do justice, we love mercy, and we walk humbly. Cathy has given us a great primer; let’s follow her lead.”

About Created to Live: Becoming the Answer for an Abortion-Free CommunityIn today's America, an abortion is performed every 26 seconds. Since 1973, nearly 58 million abortions have been performed in the United States alone, devastating countless women, men, and families. If you have had an abortion, know someone who has, or desire to make a pro-life impact in your community, Created to Live features resources, hard truths, and practical steps to help end the abortion epidemic. The days of hanging in the balance are over. The grey area is quickly becoming black or white. The choice is ours. Cathy Harris, a post-abortive woman herself, gives insight through her own story. Looking for new life for herself after her abortion, Cathy was brave enough to step through the doors of a church. Because of one bold conversation, a genuine community, and a merciful God, life found her. Now she dreams that other women will find the abundant life they search for, both before and after abortion. Equipping women, church communities, and pastors, Created to Live starts the conversation that few are brave enough to start. God will always be merciful: will you be part of the abortion-free community that thousands of women and babies need? |
