Support for GOSNELL Can Send Hollywood a Powerful Message

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.

The most powerful pro-life I have ever seen is a true crime, courtroom drama, entitled "GOSNELL: The Trial of America's Biggest Serial Killer." It is "gritty," but it is not gory. It has the potential to change many hearts and minds about the abortion issue.
