In this episode of the We Love Life Podcast, Daniel Parks and Brian Ottinger sit down with national pro-life speaker Steventhen Holland, whose story is one of the most powerful we’ve ever shared.

Steventhen’s mother was a mentally disabled woman with the cognitive ability of an 11-year-old. After being raped in a state-run facility, she became pregnant—and though pressured to abort by the very people meant to care for her, she refused. Homeless, confused, and with no support, she carried her baby to term and gave him life. At nine months pregnant, she was found living in a cardboard box behind a grocery store. That baby was Steventhen. Her heroic 'yes' became the foundation of a story that now touches hearts across the nation.

🔊 You’ll hear:

-How God redeemed unspeakable tragedy for purpose

-Why every life, no matter the circumstances, has value

-How Steventhen met his birth mom 27 years later

-Stories of transformation from his national speaking ministry

-Why rest, family, and faith remain his foundation

👉 Don’t miss this incredible story of hope, healing, and legacy.
