In 2009, Chad and Ashley Justice discovered that their unborn son, Eli, suffered from spina bifida. Their doctors advised abortion, but Chad and Ashley chose life for Eli. Many parents make this noble choice, but too many don't; upwards of 80 percent of mentally- or physically-challenged babies are aborted simply because their perceived value does not measure up to society's expectations.
In Business For Life finds Chad's story especially inspiring because of the initiative leadership that Chad takes in the decision-making process to save Eli. The New York Post article and the interview are both good to read and watch in their entirety, but pay attention especially to Chad's retelling of the temptations they faced at minute 4:15--which represent the temptations and fears that we all face when we resort to our own natural thinking--and his sudden realization that the Holy Spirit was calling them to love.
