On January 22 there will be show on Knock TV named "Surrendering the Secret", a Christian TV show which will follow some women through a bible study in healing from abortion.
I am not sure how I feel about this. I cannot imagine people coming forward for healing for the first time being televised. I think of the desire for forgiveness and acceptance that many experience before healing and the willingness to do anything to repent. I wonder, do they have families, did their families know, have their children, if they have them, had a chance to heal first ? Do the recognize how this impacts children?
“The show is going to show them that abortion hurts women, and if they become pregnant, abortion is not the right choice because of the long-lasting effects.”
I pray that these women are not exploited for the pro life movement and that they never feel regret as they continue to heal, for doing this. Post abortive people should be ministered to for no other reason than they are children of God who He desires to heal...praying for these women...

New Reality Show Allows Women to ‘Surrender the Secret’ of Abortion, Find God’s Forgiveness By Katherine Weber , Christian Post Reporter
“Surrender the Secret”, a new reality television slated to premiere on KnockTV in Jan. 2013, takes a fresh approach to the pro-life movement by following the journey of five women as they seek to find forgiveness from God for their past abortions.
The five women – Jill , Vanessa, Courtney, Jane, and Kelly – embark on an abortion-specific Bible study together during the ten episodes of the show’s season.
Geoffrey Rogers, president and CEO of KnockTV, a new online Christian television network, said that by “surrendering” their abortion “secret,” each woman is allowed to see the forgiveness of God.
“We see them coming to the show with the pain and the grief they have, and we see them come through to the healing and forgiveness of God,” Rogers told The Christian Post.
The main message of the show is two-fold, according to Rogers. The first message is to show women suffering from the consequences of an abortion that there is “light at the end of the tunnel,” and the second message is to show women of the next generation of pregnancy that abortion is not the answer.
