Postabortion Man Calls for Churches to Recognize Abortion Grief

“Research indicates that by age 40 one in four women have had an abortion and the fact is that many of them are sitting in our church pews broken and silent. It is my position that the same can be said of the men. What about the post-abortive father’s guilt, anger and emotional scars? Many of these fathers are as hurt as the mothers. It’s time for the church to open its eyes as well as it’s hearts and arms to these wounded men. They need assistance to break their chains of secrecy, seek godly professional counsel and find true healing.”

Mark B. Morrow, postabortion father

So they sinned and the churches have to figure some way to deal with sin?

Going to confession could be a start. There is no sin so great that The Lord cannot forgive.
