Cradle My Heart - Women Redeemed Webcast!!!

Do you want to get well? That seems like a strange way to start this post, but it is exactly how the author starts this book. Cradle My Heart is a book that starts right where so many women are, hurting after making the decision to have an abortion. Author, Kim Ketola really gets to the point of the matter. She does not walk around on egg shells with the subject matter, nor does she throw it in your face either. It is a very good balance of speaking the facts that are obvious although often ignored or buried, and speaking healing words, words that can only come from God.

I have ministered to a lot of women over the years and have seen how much the decision to have an abortion can change and hurt a persons life. Society tries to brush it aside, but even the hardest of women feels the hurt associated with abortion. The unfortunate thing is too many people do nothing about it and try to function through life damaged and hurting. Hope and help is there, that's why Kim starts with the question, "Do you want to get well?", because who doesn't when it comes down to really admitting things. She walks through the process step by step and from personal experience which speaks volumes. She also shares specific Scriptures to focus on with each step of the process that can aid in the healing.

Although this book is aimed specifically at those who have gone through abortion, much of what she covers can be used in helping through many traumatic events that are brought into our lives by our own choices.

About the Book:

Abortion continues to be a hot topic in politics, women's rights, and medical practice. but for the eight to ten million American Christina women who have had one, abortion is a spiritual issue as well, raising questions of life and death, heaven and hell, grief and loss.

Writing from her own experience, Kim Ketola sheds light on one of the darkest and most neglected personal issues of our time: the widespread need for healing and spiritual recovery after abortion. "After abortion brought the worst trouble into my life I had ever known," writes Ketola, "I just couldn't see my way free to believe in God's love."

With a compassionate heat, Kim offers ten true stories of healing promise from the Bible to help women answer the most common spiritual torments they face: Is abortion a sin? Does God hate me? Where can I turn in my shame and distress? How could I ever tell anyone the truth? And more.

Inspired by Romans 6:4 - "just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life" - this is a definitive resource to help women see themselves and God anew and - finally - to find spiritual healing.

Live Webcast:

In coordination with the launch of their fall releases, Kregel will be hosting a live webcast event on September 20 at 8 PM EDT featuring authors Kim Ketola (Cradle My Heart), Teske Drake (Hope for Today, Promises for Tomorrow), Dawn Scott Jones (When A Women You Love Was Abused). The webcast will allow women to come together to share their struggles and fears in order to move toward healing and hope. Women will be able to support one another and discuss shared experiences in a non-threatening, open and loving environment.

Cat Hoort of Kregel says, "We are seeking to provide safe means for Christian women to be vulnerable with each other, to seek help and guidance and counselors, and to find encouragement from those who have shared similar experiences. Out hope is that Women Redeemed webcast will become a forum for hurting women as well as for those who can help. Kim, Teske, and Dawn are all survivors and their stories will surely inspire and equip other women to move toward healing and hope."
