A collective is a group of individuals that share at least one common issue or interest, or work together to achieve a common objective. This Collective of Hope is a group of souls-men and women who are unified both through their darkness and ultimately, the hope they've been given and have received. Though each story is different, what brings them together in this book is their journey through abortion. Offering wonderful insight that counters a critical bias against those who have had an abortion, these stories of hope allow us to see into the real lives of those who have walked this difficult road. By getting just a small glimpse into each narrative we see people, both men and women, who once felt invisible; we see the precious unseen lives they left behind; but what's more, we see the indescribable grace each of them has received and the hope that now defines each member of this blessed Collective. Hope. It resonates through the lives of these unbelievably courageous men and women who unashamedly share with us details of a not so gracious past. Hope. It resonates beyond any choice. Hope.
