Forgiven and Set Free A Bible Study for Women Seeking Healing After Abortion (Revised and Updated)

Revised and Updated Edition

There is forgiveness, healing, and hope after abortion

Executive director of Hopeline Women's Center and cofounder of Post-Abortion Counseling and Education (PACE) tenderly shares God's healing grace with those suffering remorse and guilt after an abortion in this trusted Bible study that can be used by individual women or by a group.

No matter what drives a woman to end a pregnancy, there are physical, psychological, and spiritual side effects most don't anticipate. Feelings of guilt, shame, and grief become a heavy burden, and many women feel that they will never be free, that no one understands, that God will never forgive them.

But there is hope.

Linda Cochrane has been there. Forgiven and Set Free was developed out of her experience of being freed from the bondage of guilt and grief that followed her own abortion. With an understanding spirit and a gentle hand, she guides hurting women to bring their emotional scars "out of the dark past and into his holy light" where true and lasting healing can take place. Cochrane delves into the Scriptures to offer help with issues such as relief, denial, anger, forgiveness, depression, letting go, and acceptance.

For every woman yearning for the peace of God's forgiveness, this study can be the first step to healing and wholeness.
