Survivor

“Claire Culwell is living, breathing proof that each and every preborn life is sacred. Not only does she have a powerful story to share about surviving an abortion attempt, but she also exemplifies Christlike compassion and forgiveness for women who have sought abortions—including her own biological mother. This inspiring book has the potential to change hearts and touch lives!”—Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family

“Claire’s life, and almost lack thereof, is one full of shocking revelations that are certainly worth telling—but that doesn’t mean it’s an easy story to share. She does us all a great privilege by sharing the raw, vulnerable, and deepest parts of her life, bringing light to darkness and a lens of mercy to our nation’s most divisive topic. Claire’s perspective as an abortion-attempt survivor not only tells her own powerful story but also shows how every family member’s journey is intricately woven together to reveal God’s great love and plan for us.”—Catherine Hadro, host and managing editor of EWTN’s Pro-Life Weekly 

“Claire’s heart-wrenching and inspiring story is exactly what our world needs today. She bears witness to the beauty and gift of every life, and the transforming power of forgiveness. We would all do well to learn from the story of Survivor and let Claire’s example convict and encourage us in the fight for life.”—Lila Rose, president and founder of Live Action and author of Fighting for Life

“The beauty of Claire Culwell’s story is that it’s not just about surviving an abortion; it’s about helping others survive too—through unplanned pregnancies, difficult circumstances, and past regrets. While some might have been tempted to let the pain of what happened define them, Claire made a different choice. She allowed God to use her journey to bring a message of hope and healing to a country in desperate need of voices like hers. In a culture that wants us to believe miracles like Claire don’t happen, she is living proof: every life has the potential to change the world.”—Tony Perkins, president of Family Research Council
