Our Thoughts

This DVD will stir you and move you like you can’t even imagine.    It will also inform you a lot on the Planned Parenthood ways.   We sat down, my husband and I, one evening to watch this.   I was expecting hearing the story but I didn’t expect it to be so moving.     Even my husband was touched by the DVD.

His words:

This should be seen by everyone.   It will disturb you at times but it is very informative.    I highly recommend it!

We had not read the story of Abby Johnson before watching this documentary.    And to be honest, I knew just a little bit about her story.   This DVD will give you the whole perspective of the situation and the story from the beginning of her life.    You get to hear her parents as well as people she had met from the Coalition for Life while she was working at the Planned Parenthood.   You will experience first hands how she came to make the decision of leaving her work place after realizing that it was wrong.    Some people needs a 2x4 to waken up and for Abby Johnson her 2x4 came while she needed to help a doctor.    This 2x4 has stirred her life and put her back on the right track. 

The DVD is 60 minutes long and will rock your world.    It will also move you to pray more for such issues.  Oh and before watching this documentary, I strongly suggest that you bring a box of tissues.
