Abortion is a topic rarely discussed in churches. When it is mentioned, it’s often framed simply as right or wrong—leaving many women and men sitting in the pews feeling unseen, judged, or carrying silent pain. Pastors and leaders may feel uncomfortable addressing it because it’s controversial or they feel unequipped.

Yet the reality is clear: many people in the church are affected. According to a national study by LifeWay Research in partnership with Care Net:

  • 70% of women who have had an abortion identify as Christian, and 43% were attending church regularly at the time of the abortion.
  • Only 7% discussed their decision with someone at church, and 76% say their church had no influence on their decision.
  • Many women perceive judgment rather than help, and fewer than half believe churches are prepared to support women through pregnancy decisions.*¹

These numbers reveal a culture of silence, shame, and isolation—and many are quietly carrying pain that no one is addressing.

ydia speaks directly to congregations, youth ministries, conferences, and special events, bringing a message of grace, truth, and healing. She addresses the real impact of abortion, not as it is often portrayed in media as a solution to a problem or a means of empowerment for women, but as a Pandora’s box of emotional, relational, and spiritual consequences—including shame, guilt, and regret.

er ministry helps the Christian community confront this difficult topic with compassion, offering understanding and encouragement to those struggling in silence, while shining a light on the truth of abortion’s effects. Lydia ensures that God’s love meets pain with care, restoration, and hope.
