Joined by special guest Daniel Layne, Jess’s husband, this conversation dives into the realities of silence, trauma, guilt, healing, and faith from a male perspective. Dan vulnerably shares how abortion affected him as a teenage father, the cultural messages that shaped his understanding at the time, and how healing came years later through faith, community, and honest conversations. Together, Jess, Autumn, and Dan discuss: How abortion impacts more than one person The silence many men carry for decades The role church culture plays in healing or hiding pain Trauma, shame, and delayed healing Why fathers often feel excluded from the conversation The importance of education, identity, and discipleship for young men How churches can create safer spaces for healing and restoration This episode is honest, emotional, and full of hope for anyone carrying hidden grief connected to abortion. Healing is possible — even years later.
