I've never hated the sin of abortion more than in that moment. I pray God would be merciful to you, to give you a new heart, and to help you see this sin for what it is. There is salvation in the name of Jesus alone. Repent, turn to the living God, be saved!

My wife and I lost our baby girl at 16 weeks. When my wife delivered our sweet girl, we could count all ten of her fingers and toes. There was no doubt that what we were holding, though she had lost her heartbeat, was indeed a baby, our baby. (1/2)

This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21.

The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided.

I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley.

She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained.

Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000.

When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed.

Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism):

50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective.

I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life.

The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk.

We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21.

This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast.

You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change.

To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward.

As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice.

It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome.

Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️

Be frequent in prayer, and it will help you much. “Draw near to God” (James 4:8).

Complain of the slipperiness of your nature, of your weakness to withstand Satan’s assaults, and entreat God to give you strength that you may hold out.

—John Cotton, Works 2:163

There is tremendous relief in knowing that his [God's] love to me is utterly realistic, based at every point on prior knowledge of the worst about me, so that no discovery now can disillusion him about me, in the way I am so often disillusioned about myself...

Some of you may be entering this new year with a fresh outlook, excited for what 2026 will bring. Others may be weary as you carry the same burdens into the new year.

Believers, God has not promised us a life without suffering, but he has given us a hope that carries us through every sorrow and loss. We can embrace the sovereign goodness of God as we weather any storm.

Sermon: “Ask Your Father in Heaven”

[Dane Ortlund @daneortlund]

Luther, to a depressed friend, 1544:

"I beg you, join us truly great and hardboiled sinners so that you do not diminish Christ for us, who is not a Savior for imaginary or trivial sins but rather for real sins--not only small ones but great ones.

"You must get used to the fact that Christ is a real Savior and you are a real sinner. God does not play games or indulge in make-believe. It was no joke that he sent us his Son and gave him up for us.

"Therefore bid the depressions of the devil farewell."
