Forgiven and Set Free: A Bible Study for Women Seeking Healing after Abortion

by Linda Cochrane

No matter what influences a woman to end a pregnancy, the physical, psychological, and spiritual side effects are real and not always anticipated. 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. 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.

Digging deeply into the rubble the ravaging of abortion leaves behind is not easy but doing so while wearing biblical lenses is the only way true healing can happen. Christ alone offers forgiveness AND freedom from the emotional fallout especially the all-consuming guilt and shame. This book is an excellent resource:

At first I wasn’t understand the purpose and I really didn’t believe this book could help me. I so glad I pushed through to the end.

A wonderful bible study for women who need healing from this atrocity. Amid the tears is born the ability to live with yourself again as a daughter of God and not loath the image you see in the mirror.

Excellent Bible study to do alone of with other women who are post-abortive. Covers, anger, forgiveness of self, depression, etc. and lists several post-abortion ministries for continued healing.

Phenomenal in depth study for the post-abortive woman. This book, over 9-weeks, provides God's healing power and His grace, RESTORATION & forgiveness that so many generations of women need. Many don't realize the need until they go through the study and come out A CHANGED WOMAN, living a purpose driven life! https://passagesofhope.org/ (see post abortive workshop)

amazing book for healing

That is book was a huge help in my journey of forgiving myself, I still have a long way to go but it opened my mind to areas I had closed off and didn’t want to confront. This book is such a blessing.
