"Jenny" was failed first by the boy, then by her mother, and finally by the system claiming to champion her.

#Abortion pills are a self-preservation strategy with extremely low overhead to keep a business afloat - this is not #healthcare

Thank you @FDRLST for your coverage

Former 911 Responder Shares Horror Stories Of Mail-Order Abortions

An MD wrote a prize-winning 55-word “poem” about volunteering on an abortion hotline.

This clip is from a series of narrative essays from the Department of Humanities, Health, and Society, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, Florida International University, Miami, FL. An acknowledgement at the bottom of the document hails: "This poem won first place in the “55-Word Story/Other” category at the 2022 STFM annual poetry and prose contest."

The Ugly Truth:

A woman texted for help overnight while managing an at-home abortion.

No one answered until morning.

The doctor doesn’t know if she lived—but blames Texas and calls for more access to the drugs while her colleagues give her a round of applause.

The hotline has the audacity to claim that these drugs are safe, and yet here, in black and white, someone was not okay.

The abortion industry may say it's only one woman. My challenge to them is, what is the casualty threshold?

There is nothing poetic about abortion.

Fifteen years of silence turned into a story of redemption.

At 20 years old, Lorien Hershberger from Florida, was pressured into an abortion and carried that pain alone for more than a decade. But when God called her to use her story for His glory, everything changed. Today, she’s living proof of how He transforms brokenness into ministry.

Lorien now walks beside women in every stage of their journey—as a sidewalk counselor, helpline coach, client advocate, legislative voice, and birth doula. To each woman she serves, she’s a friend, sister, comforter, and champion. Her life embodies the heartbeat of Care Net’s vision: not just choosing life, but living abundantly through Christ.

@benshapiro @conservmillen It’s not just violence and obvious death for the baby, even at 6 weeks, but conscience driven mothers will feel the pain for a lifetime. All the women speaking out that abortion is harmful are called liars by the same movement claiming to champion them.

If heaven is unappealing because of the lack of romance then that one doesn’t really see of understand God fully. I personally believe and have gleaned from scripture and experience we have relationships here for three reasons: 1. The obvious is to multiple 2. Is to help us understand God’s perspective as we raise our own children 3. Because we need the support since the earth is a difficult place while it is under the corruption of sin.
The Bible definitely says there is no marriage in heaven, however I think it’s clear from the transfiguration that there will be relationships and a knowing of one another as you were on earth. It’s just a change. From heaven��s perspective the Lord has been waiting a looonngg time to have you to Himself. Marriage in heaven would mean that someone would have dominance over a part of your affection. Why should the Lord share your heart? My stance is it’s just not necessary. And since the Lord is an improvement sort of God, to the one that is anxious about it, I would say, what if it’s better than marriage? God is a level up.

Behold, The Lord’s Chicken!

I stopped in at @ChickfilACC after my dermatologist appointment on March 26 to spend a pocket blessing I’d received for my work with @sbaprolife

The word says, the steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, And He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

I was glad to receive such an extravagant gift, but it pales in comparison to the gift of knowing the Lord delights in your way and He proves it by ordering your steps.

Here’s a little story I wrote to tell about it. He’s asked big things, but what else do I have to do that’s more important than allowing the Lord to reveal His hand to the world?

One is a grown man, usually tried by a jury of his peers, and afforded representation in a court of law and one is a defenseless baby. They are not the same. If you want to make this argument then a baby should at least be allowed a jury and an advocate before they are given the death penalty. When men earn the death penalty in a land where it is a clear part of the law, they do so with full opportunity to understand the consequence before they take the action, and in this way they choose death, it is not inflicted upon them. Christians can and should uphold that God is both justice and mercy. The way that looks in relation to abortion is we are all still breathing even though we stand by and allow the most vulnerable of our species and His image to be culled. Or worse advocate for it. This is God’s mercy on display as He allows us the chance to repent before He starts balancing accounts in a court that determines eternal verdicts, which is ultimate justice.

@Kat_Cammack @ChadPergram I don’t think he realizes that you are the sort that would walk to the polling station crowning with an IV in tow 🤔

[Lorien @ADelicateHammer]

@GovRonDeSantis There are people in positions of influence in both the House and the Senate that think they will never have to answer to you again. They’ve gotten very bold and their hearts have been revealed. But God has a way of moving a man like you into a position of greater authority ✅

Reflections on the poor and the fatherless as I read Psalm 10 this morning.

There were a few reasons I was chosen to be part of the multi-million dollar campaign launched by @sbaprolife. I was coerced, and I came from poverty.

I represented something bigger than myself. I represented a large portion of women who fail under tremendous pressure. While the sources of pressure often remain faceless and nameless, fading conveniently into the periphery of the issue, we are front and center. They are happy to take no responsibility for the final outcome, and why would they? Coercion to abort is in itself a declaration that they will take no responsibility.

The saying is, "It takes a village to raise a child." The truth about #abortion is the village isn't willing, especially in an impoverished village like mine where resources are already limited.

Often, it is the fear of lack that compels the village to pressure women like me to abort. They don't see babies as a blessing; they see them as competition. She succumbs to their demands because she fears losing the only community she's ever had.

So much fear.

The hidden hand of @PPFA waits, ready with its instruments of death, to capitalize and profit from each and every fear. Since this is detestable, they have to convince themselves and others that death is a mercy for the impoverished.

You have made a significant error to sit on high and determine who should be exterminated, beginning with the poor and fatherless, and call it #ReproductiveFreedom. Psalm 10 reminds us that the Lord keeps tight ledgers and will ultimately balance accounts with fair and righteous verdicts. They have a Judge in heaven who considers their cause among the chiefest of His concerns.

What I've learned in my 41 years and from this experience is that being poor is not the worst thing you can be. It is the strength of character and quality of thought that enhances the world, not a dollar. And the only definition of reproductive justice that matters is the Lord's interpretation. Don't make the mistake of feeling safe in the periphery of the issue. The Judge will turn His gaze to you in due time.

Why do You stand afar off, O Lord?
Why do You hide in times of trouble?
The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor;
Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.

For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire;
He blesses the greedy and renounces the Lord.
The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God;
God is in none of his thoughts.

His ways are always prospering;
Your judgments are far above, out of his sight;
As for all his enemies, he sneers at them.
He has said in his heart, “I shall not be moved;
I shall never be in adversity.”
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression;
Under his tongue is trouble and iniquity.

He sits in the lurking places of the villages;
In the secret places he murders the innocent;
His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless.
He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den;
He lies in wait to catch the poor;
He catches the poor when he draws him into his net.
So he crouches, he lies low,
That the helpless may fall by his strength.
He has said in his heart,
“God has forgotten;
He hides His face;
He will never see.”

Arise, O Lord!
O God, lift up Your hand!
Do not forget the humble.
Why do the wicked renounce God?
He has said in his heart,
“You will not require an account.”

But You have seen, for You observe trouble and grief,
To repay it by Your hand.
The helpless commits himself to You;
You are the helper of the fatherless.
Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man;
Seek out his wickedness until You find none.

The Lord is King forever and ever;
The nations have perished out of His land.
Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will prepare their heart;
You will cause Your ear to hear,
To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed,
That the man of the earth may oppress no more.

And so I say, Amen. Arise O Lord.

Does Planned Parenthood really provide "Trusted care, every step of the way"?

A new report describes:

...Botched abortions...
...Stillborn children...
...Injured women...
...Open sewage in a recovery room...

...And more.

Not me bringing truth to the Church and starting in my own backyard...

It's my pleasure to be invited a second time to speak to my congregation at First Assembly of God, Mayo, FL this Sunday.

The theme for AG Women 2025 is Audacious Faith. My question to the people is this...Are you willing to go hard for the crumbs?

I've prepared a good word about a few biblical heroes whose faith impressed Jesus, along with an awe-inspiring testimony of how truly God is the same yesterday and today so that you can trust Him with tomorrow.

I haven’t shared much about this part ✍️

There is a way to effect change in our government, and these two pictures represent that difference.

I’ve never considered myself much of a patriot. Truthfully, I was so busy trying to survive most of my life that I couldn’t find the time to care. But it is those with the least or the oppressed by poor government systems that should be taking advantage of our republic with a loud and persistent voice the most.

The day I went to Washington DC last year coincided with the Israeli Prime Minister’s plan to be there also.

While I walked through the halls of our nation’s Capitol on a mission to be the voice and a representative of the least and the oppressed (the preborn and impoverished women), just outside, Palestinian sympathizers were burning our flag in the streets.

Now, both of us are impassioned change agents. Both of us are enraged about what we perceive to be injustice. But only one of us is willing to work within the confines of the law with respect and civility. Only one of us is willing to sacrifice our life while we busy our hands every day to understand the full compexity of the issue. So that when we speak, it’s not from ignorance, opinion, or theory.

The other will throw a temper tantrum in the street and foolishly burn down the house they live in with misguided rage. The next day, they’ll go get a Starbucks and continue whining. Because the truth is they don't have what it takes to be the change they want to see in the world. That requires a lot of time and effort. It takes a life. They don’t want to make that kind of sacrifice.

The truth is, if you aren’t willing to give your life, then you don’t really care that much.

Something stirred in me that day as I walked toward that giant flag hanging in the nation’s Capitol. As long as she stood, our enemies have not prevailed, even though they were bearing down in our own streets just around the corner.

I became a patriot that day.

Biden’s illegal policy of using taxpayer money for abortion travel has ended!

The American people will no longer have to fund abortion travel for the Department of Defense.

Thank you, @realDonaldTrump and @PeteHegseth!

[Lorien @ADelicateHammer]

Yeah. When they are willing to risk the hysteria over these drones because telling the public what they are actually “looking” for would incite a greater degree of panic they aren’t prepared to deal with, then that definitely should be a concern, especially when you also consider the weird assassination on the UHC CEO 🤔
