Cases of unplanned pregnancies resulting from rape have been reported to be less than 1% of the abortions that take place today.\n \n \n\n \nKim Elliot chose life after rape. She was a virgin resisting the pressures of the casual sex happening all around her. As a young adult woman, challenged by friends one night to take a side on the abortion issue, she chose the side of life against their better judgment. Then they threw down the very undesirable circumstance of being raped. Kim still chose the life side again. Imagine less than a year later, Kim had actually been raped and pregnant.\n \n \n\n \nChoosing Life After Rape is Kim's personal story (memoir) of her decision-making processes in canceling an abortion, an adoption, and finally choosing to bring her baby home, becoming a single mom. Choosing Life After Rape is a short story about her deep experience with the choice and with Christ, Who was there all along the way.\n \nThis book is brief for one simple purpose: to quickly get in front of the individuals who are in a valley of decision concerning their unplanned pregnancy to help them see that hard decisions for life are not impossible decisions with Christ. Kim walks us through each of her decisions and reveals how God was with her, pointing the way before she ever loved Him. It ends with the disclosure of a love relationship she did not know was waiting for her and a call for the reader to come to love Christ and become a new creation with Him.\n \n \n\n \nKim's story is free from the shame and condemnation that sometimes accompanies the topic. What you will find is love, healing, and freedom wrapped in timeless biblical counsel.\n \n \n\n
