If I Could Speak: Letters from the Womb (Mark Jones)

If I Could Speak

Letters from the Womb

“Imagine granting an innocent child a public hearing before they were led off to be killed. This innovative book re–awakens to the true horrors of abortion by humanizing what’s at stake. Mark Jones has taken imaginative writing to a new level on behalf of the most vulnerable people in our world, the unborn in Letters from the Womb. Can we listen to them? Will we give them a hearing?” — Tony Reinke, editor at Desiring God and author of the book 12 Ways Your Phone is Changing You 

“I love the fact that Mark Jones has added his God–given skills to the call that is getting louder and louder to bring to a screeching halt the wanton slaughter of unborn babies. ‘If I Could Speak‘ is an imaginative and impassioned appeal to the conscience that enables us to hear the voice that is often drowned by our emotions. May this voice and appeal be heeded!” — Conrad Mbewe, Pastor, Kabwata Baptist Church, Lusaka, Zambia

“Beautiful and yet unflinchingly honest, emotional and yet filled with objective truth, creative and yet focused on matters of life and death. It was written by a well–respected theologian, and yet it is very simple to read. And if this book has come in to your hands, reading it is exactly what I would encourage you to do. It won’t take long, but it may change everything.” — Megan Hill, mother of four.  Author of Praying Together and Editor for The Gospel Coalition.
