"He was a life worth sacrificing for."
Before Roland Warren became CEO of Care Net, one of the largest networks of crisis pregnancy centers in North America, he was just a scared 20-year-old college student facing an unplanned pregnancy with his girlfriend. The pressure to choose abortion was intense. But they made a different choice. And that one decision changed everything.
Roland’s story is a powerful reminder that when we follow God’s way, something good always comes from it.
He has a new book you can check out, called “The Alternative to Abortion: Why We Must be Pro Abundant Life”.
