As a committed Christ follower, Dr. Lynds is passionate about AOH’s mission and ministry. Whereas he found caring for the underprivileged and uninsured needful and rewarding, following Christ’s command to care for His little children by caring for His unborn is even more needful. He sees it a privilege to answer God’s call to stand in the gap for these children between life and the many forces working against that new life.
