What does Paul mean when he speaks of women being "saved in (or through) childbearing?"

Send us a textIn Episode 63 of The Vault, we discuss this week's controversial opinion, “Spending money on therapy/mental health is equally as important as investing”. We then dive into our listener dilemmas:

What does it really mean when Paul says a woman will be “saved through childbearing”? And how should Christian women view labor, pain, and the so-called "curse of Eve"? In this deeply encouraging episode, I'm joined by Phylicia Masonheimer—founder of Every Woman a Theologian and host of the Verity podcast. Together, we dive into the theology of birth, the spiritual significance of labor, and how surrender and trust play a powerful role in a peaceful homebirth. We talk through Phylicia's own birth stories, the beauty of holding our birth plans with open hands, and how to walk in peace, not fear—even when the unknowns of birth feel overwhelming. If you're a first-time mom feeling called to homebirth, but wondering how to prepare your heart and faith… this one's for you. ✨ Ready to prepare for your own God-centered, fear-free homebirth? Apply now for the Peaceful Homebirth Collective—my high-level mentorship for Christian women who want to birth with confidence and Holy Spirit-led peace.

(Sunday School) The Salvation in Childbearing- Mathew Smith

Sex is very bonding to a female. That's our biology. Once a woman has sex, hormones flood her body, flood her mind, leading her to perceive that the relationship is meaningful. This phenomenon is one of the reasons a woman might stick with a relationship that's not going in the direction she wants or anybody should want! Follow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my Weekly Newsletter + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!

His educational background includes undergraduate and advanced degrees from Cornerstone University, Western Michigan University, Dallas Theological Seminary and Kennedy-Western University. Mark has personally taught at many colleges and universities in Michigan and has founded and run a number of non-profits concerned with pro-life and health related matters. Mark has authored a number of articles and books and is well known nation-wide as a speaker on issues dealing with life, health and bioethics. Mark and his dear wife Julie are parents of 4 grown children, and they are the proud grandparents of now 6 grandkids! In this podcast, Mark talks about one of the areas we American Christians have largely bought into the lies of our culture. And that is the area of children: being open to having a large family should God so lead. Our American culture says we should minimize child-bearing. But more and more books and studies are showing we face a very bleak future as a nation and a world due to insufficient numbers of children being born. Yes, it takes a lot of work and a lot of resources to raise even one child. But Scripture makes it abundantly clear that each precious child is created by God and in His image, and has the potential of impacting our world for good and then living forever in His eternal kingdom! And God has promised to meet all our needs as we put Him and His Kingdom first. So why not have a “quiver full” of kids (Psalm 127)? Bottom line, we American Christians need to repent of our lack of having God be the Lord of this area of our lives.

In East Asia, high marriage rates coexist with some of the world's lowest fertility rates. So, why are so few children born in these societies?  And  how is this related to the strongly embedded cultural and Confucianist influences?Professors Sunha Myong, Jungjae Park, and Junjian Yi investigate the cultural and socioeconomic factors shaping these trends. Using a mathematical model, the team explore how deeply rooted social norms – like unequal childcare and stigma against out-of-wedlock births – impact fertility decisions. Importantly, they examine how shifts in gender roles and government policies could hold the key to reversing declining birth rates.Read the original research: doi.org/10.1093/jeea/jvaa048

Statistics Canada released new data last week, showing that in 2023, the fertility rate in Canada reached a record low — just 1.26 births per woman — making us one of the “lowest low” fertility countries in the world. It's true that material conditions, like the housing crisis, have play a role. But there is something else going on, all across the West. Our guest on today's program has published a fascinating book about that something else: a profound ambivalence towards childbearing.Anastasia Berg is an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of California, Irvine, and an editor of The Point magazine. With Rachel Wiseman, she is also the author of What Are Children For? On Ambivalence and Choice.You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com

In 1968, a book called The Population Bomb written by entomologist Paul Ehrlich helped spark panic in the west that the global population was reaching a breaking point, saying too many human beings would soon cause widespread famine and social chaos. This view that a growing human population is an existential threat to humanity remains widespread to this day. For example, University of Chicago political philosopher Martha Nussbaum recently stated that given the world's current population, “no one should be having any children.” Contemporary empirical evidence, however, points in exactly the opposite direction. Deaths are already outpacing births in many regions of the world, resulting in precipitous declines in national populations. Is this good news for humanity? Are public policies aimed at population control justified? Is there such a thing as an ideal population size? Should anyone care about whether others choose to have children or not? A listener asks whether we should continue going to confession if we keep committing the same sin over and over again. 00:00 | Intro 01:49 | Seminarians kick off school year 03:00 | Assessing population decreases across the globe 05:36 | Increased attitudes against having children 08:24 | Unpacking “culture of death,” ego-drama, and theo-drama 11:33 | Childbearing as a societal good 12:35 | Population capping through public policy 14:07 | Human population and the environment 17:03 | Utilitarianism as a faulty moral theory for addressing population concerns 18:51 | Foregoing childbirth to spare potential children pain 21:20 | Foregoing childbirth to favor economic security 22:33 | Foregoing childbirth for lack of desire 24:55 | Old age without children 28:00 | The centrality of fruitfulness 29:14 | Pope St. Paul VI's prophetic ban on artificial contraception 30:57 | How does the Church look forward? 34:05 | Listener question: Does repeating sins disqualify me from Confession? 36:35 | Join the Word on Fire Institute   Links: Data for “Population Bomb”: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/book-incited-worldwide-fear-overpopulation-180967499/ Article on Martha Nussbaum: https://www.opindia.com/2024/05/india-has-too-many-people-they-dont-have-enough-to-eat-philosopher-martha-nussbaum-makes-drastic-claims-population-reduction/ Quote citation: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/apr/16/bill-maher-inflames-abortion-debate-by-saying-its-/ Abortion statistic: https://www.guttmacher.org/fact-sheet/induced-abortion-worldwide?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwk8e1BhALEiwAc8MHiKjFruJDz0AbdPoR1ttiQT2qJc_uCiFWCE6o9rhvoaxgKyuODBPTlhoC1WAQAvD_BwE Pew Research citation: https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2024/07/25/the-experiences-of-u-s-adults-who-dont-have-children/ Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/ NOTE: Do you like this podcast? Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member!

Click here to send me a quick message :) How do you find resources you can trust around perinatal herbal care?Whether you're a birthworker, an herbalist, or on your own fertility/pregnancy/postpartum journey, it can feel confusing to sort through all the information on herbal safety and efficacy in pregnancy, birth and postpartum (especially if you're nursing). Not to mention how to comfortably incorporate herbs into the world of assisted reproductive technology (IUI, IVF, etc).It's actually not something taught extensively at herb schools or foundational programs. And in my experience of being in both the midwifery world and the herbal world, I actually found that there are a LOT of gaps in people's understanding of safety and efficacy with herbs in these times. Even experienced herbalists will shy away from working with clients in pregnancy. And I found some midwives and birthworkers working with herbs that have been clearly shown to be questionable in pregnancy.Herbs can be incredible allies when TTC, pregnant, during the birthtime, and postpartum.But figuring out which ones are appropriate is a little less straightforward, and it's essential to get some guidance (or have some resources on hand).In her new book, The Herbal Doula, herbalist-author Marie White weaves together her embodied herbal practice with current scientific evidence to offer a balanced view on how to work with herbs in these more sensitive times. Her approach is very gentle, nourishing, simple, accessible and inclusive.I really love that she creates space for the gender spectrum *and* the diversity of family structures that aren't just heteronormative, while also including those who fall into more typical structures too.It's a beautiful world-bridging resource, and also a wealth of solid information about herbal allies in the childbearing years and beyond - and we talk all about this and more in today's conversation.Listen to learn:why Marie White all but left the "herbal community"how ableism impacts all of us, including how we work with herbsabout the lack of resources for those on the gender + relationship spectrumsome very simple herbs to support nourishing + replenishing postpartumthe impacts of climate change + extreme weather events on hormoneshow herbs can help mitigate the effects of ecological extremesMarie's favorite herb (I bet you already have this growing, or know someone who does!)Resources:Today's shownotes: Pre-order The Herbal Doula + get Marie's linksFREE GUIDE Track your cycle naturally (using FAM)Episode 25: Immediate postpartum care the herbal way w Liz PhilbrickEpisode 49: How to create a sacred windowEpisode 68: Milky Oats herbal spotlightIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdom.  And if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

Across the vast expanse of the Roman Empire, anxieties about childbirth tied individuals to one another, to the highest levels of imperial politics, even to the movements of the stars. Birthing Romans: Childbearing and Its Risks in Imperial Rome (Princeton UP, 2024) sheds critical light on the diverse ways pregnancy and childbirth were understood, experienced, and managed in ancient Rome during the first three centuries of the Common Era. In this beautifully written book, Anna Bonnell Freidin asks how inhabitants of the Roman Empire—especially women and girls—understood their bodies and constructed communities of care to mitigate and make sense of the risks of pregnancy and childbirth. Drawing on medical texts, legal documents, poetry, amulets, funerary art, and more, she shows how these communities were deeply human yet never just human. Freidin demonstrates how patients and caregivers took their place alongside divine and material agencies to guard against the risks inherent to childbearing. She vividly illustrates how these efforts and vital networks offer a new window onto Romans' anxieties about order, hierarchy, and the individual's place in the empire and cosmos. Unearthing a risky world that is both familiar and not our own, Birthing Romans reveals how mistakes, misfortunes, and interventions in childbearing were seen to have far-reaching consequences, reverberating across generations and altering the course of people's lives, their family histories, and even the fate of an empire.

We're diving into an important topic: the representation of women in STEM careers. Despite making up about 50% of the population, women hold only around 34% of STEM positions, with even fewer—approximately 25%—in the chemicals industry. Why is this the case, and what can be done to change it?Kylie Wittle (Co-Founder & Operations Director of Women in Chemicals) and Amelia Greene (Co-Founder and Executive Director of Women in Chemicals), join us to explore this issue. Kylie and Amelia founded Women in Chemicals (WIC) to create opportunities and empower women in the chemicals industry. Initially driven by their personal experiences, over time, WIC has grown into a global resource supporting women and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion within industry companies.Join us as we explore the history of the chemicals industry, the current state of women's representation, and the ongoing efforts to ensure unbiased opportunities for women.

This week Matt sits down with Pastor Nathaniel as they discuss whether or not women should wear head coverings.

In this episode of Marked by Grace, Pastor Heath talks about whether women are saved by childbearing.

Resharing episode 57, "Kneeling with Jesus in the Garden" in preparation for Good Friday.  Motherhood is hard. It can bring us to our knees asking God for a different way, an easier way. Jesus was familiar with that request as he himself pleaded with God for a different way in the Garden of Gethsemane. Both our struggle and Jesus' find their roots in a different garden, the Garden of Eden.  References: "The Pain in Childbearing" by Tim Challies, https://www.challies.com/articles/pain-in-childbearing/ Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full by Gloria Furman Every Moment Holy by Douglas Kaine McKelvey For parent coaching and to learn more about me, visit https://www.lyssastoyko.com/ Want to say hello?

Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are answering a question about women and childbearing. There is actually a Scripture reference that states that women will be saved through childbearing. What does this mean? Does this mean that a woman needs to have children to go to heaven? Bob and Ken

When Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, a profound change occurred in the world; things have never been the same since. The pair felt shame for the first time and tried to hide their bodies from one another. When they heard God walking in the Garden, they hid (v. 8). Humans have been hiding from God ever since. Sin has impacted all our relationships. Adam and Eve's sin also revealed God's character. After the Fall, God did not immediately strike down Adam and Eve. He sought after them. They may have tried to hide from God, but God pursued them. He called to the man, “Where are you?” (v. 9). And He asked the woman, “What is this you have done?” (v. 13). Of course, God already knew. But He allowed them the opportunity to confess their sin. God's grace was also seen in how He provided for Adam and Eve. He replaced their fumbling attempt at clothing with leather coverings (v. 21). God's justice was also evident. He pronounced judgment on the serpent, the woman, and the man (vv. 14–19). Childbearing would be difficult. There would be tension in marriage relationships (v. 16). Work would be toilsome and full of obstacles (v. 17). Death would be inevitable (v. 19). Yet even in judgment, God's grace shone through. God only cursed the serpent and the ground (vv. 14, 17). The man and the woman were not cursed. God promised that an offspring of the woman would crush the offspring of the serpent (v. 15). There we see a glimmer of hope for the coming of the future Redeemer. God had not given up on humanity. That is our hope. The God who pronounced judgment on the serpent, Adam, and Eve also promised to redeem what was lost. Go Deeper Try to imagine a world without sin. We would hardly recognize it. What would it be like to have friendships, work, and an environment that were unspoiled by sin?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(Rebroadcast) You hear about physiological birth but do you really KNOW what it is that makes birth physiological? Have you ever wondered, "How does the baby know when to be born?" "How can I have a pain-free and peaceful birth?" "How do I bond with my baby?" Well friends... it all comes down to the hormonal cascade. Dr. Sarah has done a lot of research and really has dived into what physiological birth is an how to facilitate it. After having 4 home births herself and years of research she comes on the show to share her expertise and knowledge about hormones in labor and birth. About Dr. Sarah Buckley: Sarah Buckley is trained as a GP/family physician with qualifications in GP-obstetrics and family planning. She is the mother of four home-born children and lives in Brisbane, Australia, where she is a PhD candidate as well as writing and lecturing on pregnancy, birth, and parenting.  Dr Buckley's work critiques current practices in pregnancy, birth, and parenting from the widest possible perspectives, including scientific, anthropological, cross-cultural, psychological, and personal. She encourages us to be fully informed in our decision-making; to listen to our hearts and our intuition; and to claim our rightful role as the real experts in our bodies and our children. She is also a PhD candidate at the University of Queensland,, where her research is focused on oxytocin in labour and birth and the impacts of interventions. See her professional, peer-reviewed publications as part of her PhD here Her bestselling book Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering: A Doctor's Guide to Natural Childbirth and Gentle Early Parenting Choices, published by Celestial Arts/PenguinRandomHouse (US, 2009), builds on her acclaimed first edition, published in Australia as Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering: The Wisdom and Science of Gentle Choices in Pregnancy, Birth, and Parenting (One Moon Press, Brisbane, 2005, available as ebook here ). Dr Buckley has an ongoing interest in the hormones of labour and birth, and this has culminated in her groundbreaking report Hormonal Physiology of Childbearing (2015 Childbirth Connection, a program of the National Partnership for Women and Families). This report, available for free online,  has been described as “…one of the most revolutionary and influential publications on maternity and newborn care ever issued.”   Grab your free homebirth checklist: bit.ly/homebirthessentials      Join Our FB Community: Facebook.com/groups/peacefulhomebirth

SHOW NOTES The placenta is an amazing organ that God creates in us at the beginning of a new pregnancy and gets rid of immediately after the baby is born. It is the lifeline for the baby and performs a plethora of functions to support the baby's life while in utero. Today we're going to talk about how the placenta forms, what the placenta does, and how to best manage the delivery of the placenta after birth. The medical model thinks that everything about birth needs to be managed because they consider it an inherently dangerous process, but God shows us very differently. In this episode we'll dig in to the beauty of the placenta.   Resources: Optimal Care in Childbirth: The Care for a Physiologic Approach by Goer & Romano Physiology in Childbearing: with Anatomy and Related Biosciences by Stables       Helpful Links: **Now YOU can have access to the entire Christian childbirth course conducted LIVE this summer! ** Sign up HERE for the Your Birth, God's Way Online Christian Childbirth Course - Replay Edition!  This is a COMPLETE childbirth education course with a God-led foundation taught by a certified nurse-midwife with over 20 years of experience in all sides of the maternity world.  Learn more or sign up HERE!   Sign up for your PERSONALIZED Pregnancy Coaching Midwife & Me Power Hour HERE These consults can include: birth plan consultation, past birth processing, second opinions, breastfeeding consultation, and so much more!  Think of it as a special, one-hour appointment with a midwife to discuss whatever your concerns may be without any bias of practice policy or insurance policy influencing recommendations.   Lori's Recommended Resources HERE   Sign up for email updates Here   Be heard!

Over the last 100 years the way in which we guide new lives into this realm has changed, and mostly to our deficit. This is due to allopathy and its intolerance for natural and homeopathic ideas and methods. Before the 1930s homeopathy provided options that we would currently describe as natural, and this was reflected (more...)
