In 1963, Lee Ezell, a confused and frightened 18-year-old—the victim of a brutal rape—bravely chose to have her baby and give her up for adoption. In the years that followed, Lee's life changed dramatically, with God's help: she had a successful marriage, two beautiful adopted daughters, and became a popular inspirational writer, speaker, and radio personality—but she would always feel a piece missing from her heart.

Today, there are over 160 million children worldwide who are without parents. In America there are as many as 144,000 boys and girls in foster care wanting to be adopted.

In the summer of 1974, 17-year old Anita Keagy discovered that she was pregnant by her boyfriend. Having grown up in a loving but strict Christian home, Anita feared the disgrace it would bring on her family and considered abortion.
