The Counter Culture Mom Show with Tina Griffin

Babies survive abortion every single day, and Robin Sertell is a living, breathing testimony. She survived not just one, but three, saline-infusion abortion attempts in the 1970s. In utero, the procedures that repeatedly tried to end her life failed, but they caused great health challenges for her during her childhood. Later, at just nine years old, she discovered that her mother had tried to abort her multiple times, but couldn’t even process what her grandmother revealed to her. After years of ups and downs, Robin was able to forgive her mother for all of the abortion attempts, and today, Robin is a speaker, author, and founder and president of Montanans for Life. Her story highlights the gritty and uncomfortable truths about abortion and its devastating impact on human lives, along with the hope that more people will find forgiveness and become pro-life advocates.

The truth about abortion is heart-piercing. Every baby who is aborted is a human being who never had the opportunity to live out their calling. For Denisha Workizer, this chilling truth rings true: her mother attempted to abort her twice, but despite these attempts, she was born full-term in July of 1976. Denisha didn’t find out about her mother’s attempted abortions until she was 42 years old, and the truth shocked her. She felt hurt, betrayed, and traumatized. But now, thanks to God’s grace and His healing spirit, Denisha is a national speaker and the founder of Reclaimed Story. She shares her unique and life-changing perspective as a survivor of abortion and a participant in the Faces of Choice campaign, which aims to humanize babies in the womb by putting a face to each person who survived an abortion attempt. “Culture begins to shift when hearts shift first,” Denisha says.

TAKEAWAYS

Abortion survivors often struggle with feelings of rejection or feeling unlovable

The Bible says that all humans were created in God’s image, or Imago Dei

Denisha’s mother tried to terminate her pregnancy with both chemical and surgical abortion methods, but God had bigger plans

Denisha helps women heal from their past - to harness it as their source of strength, not their source of pain

Survivors of life-threatening experiences are all around us, but how many of us have stopped to think about the tens of thousands of people who have survived failed abortions? This jarring reality is exactly what Lyric Gillett hopes to highlight with her non-profit, Faces of Choice. Her mission exists to bring awareness to a demographic of survivors who nearly perished while within their mother’s womb. Lyric’s initial ad campaign, once poised to run in the 2020 Super Bowl, was blocked from airing. Today, Faces of Choice is thriving, and it is courting an even bigger audience: the FIFA World Cup. Lyric seeks to change the cultural conversation about abortion by elevating the stories of real survivors and humanizing their terrifying brush with death. Could you look someone in the eyes and tell them that they shouldn’t exist, all in the name of a woman’s “choice”?

TAKEAWAYS

Faces of Choice points people toward the pro-life movement ecosystem

Putting a face to the very real horrors of abortion changes the conversation for many people

Faces of Choice backs science, but more importantly humanizes what so many have dismissed as mere ‘fetal tissue’

The FIFA World Cup audience will likely draw well over 1 billion viewers to the Faces of Choice ad campaign

Judd Saul took one trip to Nigeria and knew that his life’s mission was to help the persecuted Christians living there. Judd is the president of Equipping the Persecuted, a ministry that exists to do exactly that: stop the persecution, provide resources for those who are victimized by radical Islamists, and bring in aid, like medicine and food, immediately after an attack. Sadly, Judd reveals that the situation in Nigeria is worse than ever. Jihadi ambushes against Christians are only escalating, and the Nigerian government refuses to intervene; in fact, they help aid the Jihadists. He urges Christians in America to pray for the persecuted church, become a monthly partner with Equipping the Persecuted to help save Nigerians, and call their senator or congressman and ask them to intervene in this serious situation in Nigeria.

TAKEAWAYS

Equipping the Persecuted led 1,000 Muslims to Christ last year alone

The Nigerian government is controlled by a very aggressive and well-armed minority

The U.S. government has done little to help the situation in Nigeria

Equipping the Persecuted responds with humanitarian aid after an attack within minutes or hours and all donations assist in this mission

World-changer Seth Gruber launched The White Rose Resistance in the wake of the overturning of Roe v. Wade. The mission is simple but supercharged: awaken and mobilize the local church to resist evil and to eradicate abortion. Seth is a dynamic speaker and author who has a passion for convincing the passive American church to rise and stop the pandemic of evil in modern culture, like abortion, porn, and stark animal worship. He traces the decline of American morality to key moments in 1973 and calls out the church for failing to implement its mandate to have dominion over the earth, to stand firm for the truth, and deny satanic influences. With the 250th American anniversary rapidly approaching, churches need to wake up and get back to basic kingdom building.

TAKEAWAYS

There is a major correlation between monogamous cultures and successful societies

America is toying with the same kind of idolatry and pagan behavior of ancient Israel: baby killing, sexual deviance, and animal worship

The church must reclaim its mandate and save the West

The church is often too concerned with being nice, rather than being effective and truthful
