Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

After an abortion, the forgotten victim is the baby's father.

According to the authors of this insightful Bible study, abortion inflicts pain on men as well as women. These fathers are "silent, wounded warriors" who are suffering from fear, anxiety, anger, guilt, grief, and depression. Men who have lost a child to abortion often have an unexplainable need to defend their masculinity, causing confusion and strife in their relationships.

This study helps men acknowledge and face their inner turmoil. The authors walk hurting men through the stages of post-abortion stress, helping the move out of denial about the past and into acceptance and forgiveness. Men will learn about God's unchanging, loving character and his desire to forgive them and heal their father-hearts.

Healing A Father's Heart-A Post Abortion Bible Study for Men

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2001

Verified Purchase

Overall, this book is a good foundation for any man to understand the grieving process he is going through in the aftermath of abortion. The questions at the end of each chapter are throught-provoking and will help the male to come out of denial if his feelings have been supressed. The questions chosen for group discussion will certainly assure the men that others are experiencing what he is experiencing and that he is not alone in his grief. I gave this book a 4-star rating as I see this Bible Study as a beginning process in the areas of anger, forgiveness, and depression. More counsel, either one-on-one or in a support group, would need to go more indepth for a greater healing to occur. Chapter 8 shows the real 'heart motives' behind an abortion choice, and chapter 9 has excellent closure for the man who has worked through his unresolved grief.
Since this book is authored by two women, my main concern before reading this book was whether or not it would really be able to speak to the man, his issues, his perspective, and his grief. My concerns were relieved as I completed this reading. I am planning to use this book with post-abortive men in my own ministry, both professionally as a pastor, and as Counseling Director at our local Pregnancy Helpline.

I have not read yet myself but I know Linda Cochrane and have benefited much from Forgiven and Set Free. And I am recommending to dad's who have lost children to abortion.

Looking for forgiveness, comfort and peace?

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2014

Verified Purchase

I was looking for help to deal with pain lasting over 30 years. I loved the book because it made me work with scriptures I knew about for years, but either overlooked or refused to pay attention to. This book gets the reader actively involved and requires work, thought and prayer before finding forgiveness. Can't recommend this book enough to those searching for peace and comfort.

a "must have" for post-abortive men

Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2009

I offer abortion recovery assistance to women through the companion book, Forgiven and Set Free. However, in the past two months, men who have been part of an abortion decision are asking for help in their recovery. I offered this book and now they are waiting in line for a group bible study for men. They are asking for help to process their role in the abortion decision, seek forgiveness for abandoning their child(ren), woman, and responsibility to protect and provide. This book restores the father's heart to love God, others, and self, as well as accept their God-given role in life.

not good

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 17, 2013

as a counsellor I did not research this book enough and then realised that it was a book based on christian faith healing which goes against my non-judgemental attidude towards being impartial towards my client. There were some exercises that I was able to use but would definately not recommend it.
