Episode 20: A baby changes everything; God's grace and Roe v. Wade with Susan Glass

On June 24th, 2022, Roe v. Wade was overturned giving states the ability to regulate abortions. This historic decision prompted Susan Glass to share her story with us. This is a story that demonstrates how one decision can change the course of a family's life forever.  In 1990 Susan was 24 years old and married with 2 children. A lot of life had been lived up to this point despite Susan being so young. Jim, her husband, (whose story you can listen to in episode 3 😉) had been stationed in Guam with the Navy. While Jim was back and forth being out at sea, Susan was taking care of their children which was difficult being so far away from friends and family. She felt alone and exhausted, trying to find strength to go on. Susan was struggling and in a dark place when she found out she was pregnant with her 3rd child only 6 months after her 2nd baby had been born. Susan knew she did not want any more children and she began to consider her options. She was making this decision regarding her baby on her own. But a change in a law halted everything. Through this conversation you will hear about God's incredible grace as Susan shares how one of the most difficult seasons in her life became the biggest blessing, changing her marriage and family forever. We don't want to give anything else away, you just have to listen!
