Secret Sin: When God's People Choose Abortion by Mary Comm

This book was written because abortion is one of the last great secret sins that remains in the closet. And because the Church hasn't been aware of the magnitude of this secret sin or how it affects those it touches, the Church has done little or nothing to help these people suffering silently in their midst to find healing in Christ. This book was written to pull back the curtain giving those within the Church an inside look into the world of the post-abortive Christian with the intent of spurring them on to begin reaching out to these hurting people with the compassion of Christ.

Get Out of that Pit by Beth Moore

Find your way out of that pit through God's deliverace.  Beth Moore shares her own story of dwelling in desperation and guides readers to the way out of their own.  No matter what or how you get stuck, God can get you out.

Forgiven and Set Free - Bible Study by Linda Cochrane

Women who hurt after an abortion usually have such deep scars that they have difficulty talking about their pain. Linda Cochrane, who suffered from post-abortion syndrome, gently helps these women open up and unearth deeply buried feelings of stress, guilt, and shame in an atmosphere of love and acceptance. This is a Bible study and used by many Pregnancy Resource Centers.

SaveOne Work Book for Women by Sheila Harper

SaveOne: A Guide to Emotional Healing After Abortion is for girls and women seeking deliverance from the pain and guilt of an abortion.  This is a guide, as well as a workbook, reserached and written by a woman who herself had an abortion when she was a teenager.  For seven years, author Sheila Harper carried with her the shame and humiliation of her abortion, only to find deliverance through God's abundandt Grace.

Surrendering the Secret by Pat Layton

Surrendering the Secret is a course designed to bring women together who share abortion in their past. Abortion is not a secret anymore; it is freely discussed in our society.  Despite this new openness, many women have pain and experiences that they don't feel comfortable telling anyone.  Millions of women have held this secret inside, and many are suffering severe consequences. Surrendering the Secret simply allows women who need help to connect with women who can help.

Healing a Father's Heart - A Men's Bible Study  by Linda Cochrane, and Kathy Jones

My Life UNscripted  by Tricia Goyer 

Using the metaphor of screenwriting, My Life, Unscripted explores relationships in every teenage girl's life--with herself, her friends and enemies, her parents, guys, and with God.  Real-life scripts, screenwriting terms, and timely topics, make this an interesting read for teen girls as they delve into their own inner struggles and outward relationships. They'll also learn the importance of "scripting" their own responses BEFORE challenging life-situations arise and are able to think about, pray about, and consider how to face these situations before the scene begins. By contrasting real-life with TV or movies, teens will understand they don't have to get caught up in the drama.

Redeeming Love  by Francine Rivers 

Bestselling author Francine Rivers skillfully retells the biblical love story of Gomer and Hosea in a tale set against the exciting backdrop of the California Gold Rush. The heroine, Angel, is a young woman who was sold into prostitution as a child. Michael Hosea is a godly man sent into Angel’s life to draw her into the Savior’s redeeming love.  www.redeeminglovenovel.com

Help for the Post-Abortive Woman by Teri Reisser, M.S., and Paul Reisser, M.D.

Tilly by Frank Peretti, Crossway Books
