"Her birth mother was seconds from aborting her and decided not to. She asked them at the place that she was at to use the telephone, she called her mom and told her she was pregnant. Her mom said, 'You get out of there immediately.'" –John Elefante

The song, "This Time" is a powerful ballad about a young teen in an abortion clinic waiting room, and how the Lord breaks into her thoughts and changes her heart about her baby's life she is about to end.

The song will no doubt touch many, as it does me, but it has a personal meaning for John Elefante, as he wrote it about his adopted daughter.
On the show, Jay Sekulow asks John how the song came about…

"It's generally the story of how my daughter came into the world," replied Elefante. "Her birth mother was seconds from aborting her and decided not to. She asked them at the place that she was at to use the telephone, she called her mom and told her she was pregnant. Her mom said, 'You get out of there immediately!' She's in studio today and I'm really glad she's here." (Photo: Elefante's new project: "On My Way to the Sun")

"When I wrote the song I tried to put myself in that place that day," said John, "and it was frightening even putting myself in that place. …What I think about right now is all the ones that didn't make that decision to get off that table and go call their mothers and tell them they were pregnant; it's overwhelming to me."
