Book cover for Unplanned: The Dramatic True Story of a Former Planned Parenthood Leader's Eye-Opening Journey across the Life Line
Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We ...more

This book was incredibly interesting. I had seen the movie, but I appreciated the personal perspective. It felt repetitive and could maybe use a trim down, but I appreciated the authentic nature of the narrative. I would have enjoyed some more facts from behind the scenes (hard numbers and such) but I understand the nature of her confidentiality agreement. Abby's words about the semantics of Planned Parenthood 'making abortion rare' being out of step with their actual bottom line mentality reminds me of banks, trying to sell services. I am realizing how effective Planned Parenthood is at selling their brand and am praying about how I can influence the young women in my circle towards a life-honoring value system.

Brother Lawrence
“We must know before we can love. In order to know God, we must often think of Him; and when we come to love Him, we shall then also think of Him often, for our heart will be with our treasure.”
Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God

Brother Lawrence
“I told you, in my last, that He sometimes permits bodily diseases to cure the distempers of the soul. Have courage then: make a virtue of necessity: ask of GOD, not deliverance from your pains, but strength to bear resolutely, for the love of Him, all that He should please, and as long as He shall please.”
Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God

Brother Lawrence
“He does not ask much of us, merely a thought of Him from time to time, a little act of adoration, sometimes to ask for His grace, sometimes to offer Him your sufferings, at other times to thank Him for the graces, past and present, He has bestowed on you, in the midst of your troubles to take solace in Him as often as you can. Lift up your heart to Him during your meals and in company; the least little remembrance will always be the most pleasing to Him. One need not cry out very loudly; He is nearer to us than we think.”
Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God

Brother Lawrence
“Think often on God, by day, by night, in your business and even in your diversions. He is always near you and with you; leave him not alone.”
Brother Lawrence
