Subtitle: Testimonies of Hope, Restoration, and Healing with Adoption
Host: Beth Domsten
Speakers: Jim Wright, Shelli Miller
Date/Time: Monday, January 31, 2022 @ 10 am Eastern
Two little words…
“You’re pregnant”
…unleash an array of emotions from excitement, joy, anticipation to fear, anxiety, guilt, shame, hopelessness, anger, or confusion.
If the pregnancy is unplanned, the mother is faced with an overwhelming decision – “Do I keep the baby, have an abortion, or place the baby for adoption?”
The mother’s decision will impact her life (and the life of her baby) forever.
Many women with unplanned pregnancies do not want to get an abortion, but they feel like they don’t have any other options.
We are excited to launch our first Justice Network webinar so we can help educate, equip, encourage, and empower YOU with resources to offer support and resources to women facing the toughest decision of their life.
Jim Wright, Founder and President of Birthmother Ministries Inc. (Birthmothers¨) has a passion to help women face unplanned pregnancies.
We invite you to join us as Jim shares about a healthy alternative to abortion that offers support and resources to not only the mother but for the father and other family members as well.
In addition to working with pregnancy care centers and agencies, Birthmothers also works with local churches to establish teams that minister to pregnant women in their communities. Their motto is “A Friend loves at all times.ª”
As America grows closer to abolishing Roe v. Wade and more and more states are limiting abortions, there will be an influx of children in need of adoption. We need to be ready with open arms and loving hearts to receive these precious babies. Part of this preparation is getting rid of old mindsets concerning adoption.
Many people wonder if adoption is the right choice for them.
-
- Mothers of unplanned pregnancies are hesitant to place their baby for adoption.
- Couples often fail to pursue the adoption process because they feel they won’t be able to love a child that’s not their own biological child.
- Fear of the unknown and believing the worst-case scenarios are powerful hindrances to the adoption process.
If you would like to learn more about adoption, ways you can help and support women in crisis pregnancies, and first-hand testimonies of families who have gone through this process, then you will not want to miss this free webinar.
Watch the replay to hear Jim Wright along with Beth Domsten and Shelli Miller share how God beautifully takes broken pieces and weaves them together in a beautiful tapestry.
This broadcast will offer hope and healing to many.

My heart was rejoicing and thanking the Lord for this first Justice Network webinar! As each speaker shared with such transparency you could see God’s amazing plan of reconciliation. I was in awe listening to their stories of God’s hope, healing and restoration. This webinar will continue to be a resource of information and valuable insight for anyone interested in adoption.
It was so beautiful to listen to the testimonies and how God made a way where there seamed to be no way. God was healing hearts and through this webinar He is going to touch many with His Love, Joy and Mercy 🙂
This webnar is close to my heart. I live a lifestyle to be as an influencer of safety to the unborn child. This was a very informative webnar and had me at the edge of my seat. There were three testimonies of true life committment to the welfare of those whom have suffered for this cause of the unborn child. There was also positive affirmation for those who have faced putting up their child for the child’s sake. Shelli’s testimony was awesome. And for Jim’s testimony had me touched deeply for his struggle and his steadfast overcoming forwardness. I continue to be inspired by this justice network led by Beth and by Ann whom stir others to action. Always look forward to each meeting and this first webnar was immediate success. I truly embrace these messages of hope shared by Beth, Jim, and Shelli. Thanks for opportunity to be part of it. Very grateful and hope to be a mouth piece for unborn child to a greater level.
Also want to add it was wonderful to hear of Beth’s testimony and touching that she found her birth mother. It surely was a miracle and blessings to hear of this.
Welcome to the Justice Network! We’re so happy to connect with you! Our desire is to help educate, equip, encourage, and empower YOU to take action in key areas of society to restore Biblical justice. A great big THANK YOU to all those who either participated in the launching of our first LIVE Justice Network webinar or who watched the replay of “Empowering Pregnant Women Facing Tough Choices.” We pray that you were blessed and encouraged with the testimonies and blessing prayers and that you have gained greater insight about the different stages of adoption and ways you can help support women in crisis pregnancies.
I want to share a few comments with you concerning adoption.
“If a mother and father can love more than one child then why is it so hard to understand that a child can love more than one mother and father?” Unknown
“I could never raise someone else’s child.” This statement is inaccurate because they won’t be raising someone else’s child. The child is their own. A family goes beyond biological relationships. Blood doesn’t make a family, LOVE does.
If you were adopted and have feelings of rejection and abandonment – realize your birth mother made an adoption plan and your adopted family very much “wanted” you. While the pregnancy may not have been planned, you were very much LOVED and WANTED.
Thank you for your heart for righteousness and justice. God bless you and your family!
This webinar opens up the world of adoption in a very sensitive way. Be ready to see the beauty of adoption and the joy of families being reunited. I was deeply moved by each panelist’s story.
And to top it off, a tribute to those who choose life is given near the end. You will be enriched!
And more webinars will be coming in the future!
