A powerful story that speaks to the heart.

Dyna Carey, student at New Life Christian College, is raped and falls pregnant. While a fiction story, the trauma and despair feels very real whether it be from the aftermath of rape, the realisation of pregnancy or the reaction to abortion. Francine Rivers has thoroughly researched the subject and woven a story that is sad, touching, painful, joyous and honours God who heals and restores and gives us immeasurable love and grace. ( )

I read this book while I was attending a Bible College. This book rocked my world. What if this happened in MY college. What would our staff do? At the time I was a student leader there, and I told several people about this book. This book will always be a TOP favorite of mine. Loved the book! ( )

this book is a page turner. The novel is about a young attractive engaged girl who is raped. She becomes with child and is pressured to have an abortion. ( )

I appreciated the sentiment of the book, but it was a little slow and bland for my liking ( )

The Atonement Child

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0842300414, Hardcover)

A beautiful repackaged edition of Francine Rivers's classic novel that breaks through the many taboos surrounding abortion. In one terrifying moment, Dynah Carey's perfect life is shattered by rape, her future irrevocably altered by an unwanted pregnancy, and her doting family torn apart. Her seemingly rock-solid faith is pushed to the limits as she faces the most momentous choice of her life--to embrace or to end the untimely life within her.

This new edition includes discussion questions for individual or group use.
