“Being the community abortionist would not be something compatible with practicing in the community,” he said. “We no longer were involved with doing abortion. We still believed in it and we still referred for it.”
But when the couple went to a church concert in 1986 and the preacher made a call for anyone who wanted to be “right with God,” Robinson was deeply moved.

“I just didn’t know the truth of the gospel,” he said, explaining how that moment changed everything. “I knew something was different.”

Becoming a Christian deeply transformed Robinson’s worldview, prompting him and his wife to leave the abortion industry entirely and to move into pro-life advocacy.
“[God] opened our eyes to how heinous this war against babies is and He launched us on a pro-life career,” he said.
Robinson — who said he believes doctors broke “a great human trust” when they embraced abortion — explained how being an abortion doctor can lead to desensitization and a failure to realize the gravity of one’s decisions.

“You become desensitized to the point where the physician dehumanizes that baby inside the uterus and it’s no longer something that is holy — it’s no longer a precious human life,” he said.
He believes God has truly transformed him — and he offered a message to anyone else who might be looking for life-change.
“Jesus, he comes in and he shifts everything around. We become a new creature,” Robinson said. “He transforms our mind and we line up with his word by his spirit, so it’s new life.”
