MARKED | Pat Layton

Joining us today is Pat Layton, author of Surrendering the Secret. Many women hide the secret of abortion deep in their hearts and they are suffering severe consequences. They carry a great burden of shame and failure, afraid to reveal their hidden pain, and by doing so are forced to endure the long-lasting effects in isolation. Surrendering the Secret will allow women to release this burden and find freedom through 'redemptive community' while experiencing hope and joy, as shame and failure are replaced with beauty.Pat is a passionate and inspiring author, speaker, and leader who has founded a variety of organizations during her 30 plus years in full time ministry including one of the nations largest pregnancy resource centers, an international post abortion recovery program, an adoptionagency, and a national woman’s retreat and coaching ministry. She has published 6 books. Her best selling post abortion recovery bible study Surrendering the Secret was recently updated and re-launched by Lifeway in January 2019. Her book Life Unstuck: Finding Peace with Your Past, Purpose in Your Present and Passion for Your Future is a best seller and the foundation for much of her speaking and coaching. Pat has been featured on numerous radio and TV shows includingFocus on the Family, Life Today, Janet Parshal and Proverbs 31 Ministries.
