John,

I have a story to share with you that’s very special to me. Jessica is one of my wife’s best friends, and she’s a close, personal friend of mine as well. She attended our church and has known my wife since they were both young children.

At 21, Jessica found out she was pregnant. The baby’s father, who I also knew, had many struggles. Jessica knew he would not be reliable.

What seemed like a hopeless situation ended up being miraculous. Live Action had the privilege of recording Jessica’s powerful story, and you can watch the short video within this article:

Jessica’s situation was really my first encounter with a life-or-death situation, knowing she felt abortion was her only option. We prayed with her and encouraged her against all odds. We tried everything we could to talk her out of her abortion appointments.

Seeing her choose life and the courage it took has shaped my entire perspective on the abortion issue. Knowing her son, Ezekiel, and seeing the man he’s becoming has been one of the greatest joys of my life.

Jessica and Ezekiel are my inspiration in so many ways. Truthfully, Jessica’s story has driven my pro-life work.

I find myself seeing her, thinking of her, and using her as an example in my mind when we try to reach all the women we possibly can with the truth about abortion. Ezekiel is the example in my mind when I think of each life we are trying to save.

I am also compelled to be the best husband and father I can be, knowing women and children need good men in their lives.

It’s an honor to share a story with you so close to home for me, especially today on Valentine's Day. I pray you are inspired and encouraged in your pro-life efforts by Jessica’s story as I have been.

For Life,

Josef Lipp
