It wasn&#8217;t."},"content":{"rendered":"<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stephan Stewart&#8217;s parents were in the middle of an acrimonious divorce, so to cope with the turmoil at home, she became entangled in a promiscuous lifestyle. She was just 15 years old when she went with a friend to Planned Parenthood to get birth control \u2014 and discovered she was pregnant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart told Live Action News, \u201cThe services at Planned Parenthood were free except that I was required to pay for an ultrasound. I wondered how I was going to get the money to do this. I didn\u2019t want to tell my parents I had gotten pregnant \u2013 I was so ashamed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growing up in a staunchly pro-life home, her parents were active with Dayton Right to Life. Stewart remembers standing alongside them on the sidewalk outside an abortion facility when she was just eight years old. Abortion was not an option she was willing to consider \u2013 at least initially.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt was when my friend, who was grounded at the time, told her parents why she had taken me to Planned Parenthood to avoid getting into further trouble that the direction of my life radically changed,\u201d Stewart said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her friend\u2019s parents were members of a Unitarian church where the director of Planned Parenthood attended. The woman offered to \u201chelp\u201d Stewart with her dilemma.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cShe knew of my reluctance to tell my parents about my pregnancy, so she offered to \u2018make everything go away.\u2019 That\u2019s when abortion entered the picture. No other option was ever presented to me. At the time, I didn\u2019t know about pregnancy support centers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HcBsjvfQA3k?si=bFTJ9f6-RIcDpVqS\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To a frightened and distressed young teen, the Planned Parenthood director presented an attractive proposition: she would help secure a court-appointed attorney to act as a guardian for Stewart so she could be granted a juvenile bypass to obtain the abortion. The icing on the cake: her parents would never know.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSo, I stood before the judge and told him that I didn\u2019t want to tell my parents about the pregnancy, nor did I want the baby I was carrying, that I wanted the abortion,\u201d Stewart said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her request was granted, and Planned Parenthood promised to pay for Stewart\u2019s surgical procedure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On September 8, 1998, a date she\u2019ll never forget, Stewart walked past the spot where she had stood as a little girl, where her parents had once advocated for life. This time, just seven years later, she was a determined young teen intent on ending the life of her child by abortion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cI think about the irony of the situation. Not only was I that scared, pregnant woman who my parents tried to help years ago, but the Planned Parenthood that had refused to cover my ultrasound cunningly put a strategy into motion to circumvent parental consent for me to undergo a major medical procedure.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Finding redemption in Christ and discovering a mission for helping post-abortive women<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart recovered from the abortion at her friend\u2019s home but experienced repeated complications requiring trips back and forth to the facility. Another concerned friend confided in her mother about Stewart\u2019s situation, prompting this mother to call Stewart\u2019s mother at work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBy this time, my parents were separated and had no idea what was going on in my life,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cBut when my mother showed up suddenly at my school, I realized she knew about my abortion.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart\u2019s mother took her to get the appropriate medical attention she needed to heal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cIt took two years of treatments from medical specialists to get healthy again. I lived with constant anxiety and depression. I would just shake at times. Abortion changed my life \u2013 I was a vastly different person the moment I walked out of that clinic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the years following, Stewart abused alcohol and drugs. Some nights, she wondered if she would wake up the next morning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs far away as I was from God, I prayed to Him, even while using drugs,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cI knew I wasn\u2019t going to be okay until I finally surrendered my life to Christ, which I did at the age of 19, about four years after my abortion.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She repented her lifestyle and became a voracious studier of God&#8217;s Word. She got connected to a church community where she could continue her spiritual growth. In time, she felt God calling her to share her testimony to benefit other women in similar circumstances, but first felt she had to tell her father about her abortion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cMy father was still unaware of my past. I went to him and told him everything. He responded by apologizing that he hadn\u2019t been there for me during those troubling times and reassured me that my baby was with the Lord. He told me that God had forgiven me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Confessing to her father opened Stewart\u2019s eyes as to how she had denied her parents the chance to show the love and compassion they had upon learning of her dark secret.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAll the things I had feared about how they would react were baseless,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cI never allowed them to prove me wrong.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She started telling her testimony all over the country \u2013 in churches where abortion was never mentioned and where shame flourished.\u00a0 Women would come up to her and whisper about their own abortions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cWhen you\u2019re backed into a corner, scared and desperate, and you see no way out, you do things you normally wouldn\u2019t do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, she didn\u2019t know it yet, but Stewart had more restorative work to do. She wanted to volunteer at the local pregnancy support center, but was first required to complete a post-abortion healing program. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTo my surprise, I discovered some wounds that were still festering,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cI was grateful to be able to work through that lingering pain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, Stewart is the director of the pregnancy support center, where she facilitates recovery programs for post-abortive women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stewart said, \u201cI\u2019m doing what God has called me to do. I was a worship leader for many years but stepped away when I felt called to this ministry, first as a volunteer and now as director. It brings me so much joy to serve God by helping women find redemption in His grace.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/tell-congress-stop-the-doj-from-targeting-pro-life-americans\/?utm_campaign=doj_petition&amp;utm_medium=lan_website\"><b><i>The DOJ put a pro-life grandmother in jail for protesting the killing of preborn children.
