Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Dr. Stacey Trasancos never planned to write a book about IVF, but with President Trump promising to expand access to IVF, she felt compelled to explain why artificial reproduction conflicts with Christian teaching on human dignity and procreation. The heart of the issue lies in what Trasancos calls the principle of inseparability—anything that divorces "lovemaking" from "life-giving" violates God's design for human reproduction. While contraception suppresses the life-giving aspect, IVF eliminates the lovemaking component. This separation isn't merely theological abstraction but has profound implications for how we understand human relationships and dignity.Most jarring is the revelation that between one and four million embryonic children are currently frozen in cryogenic storage in the United States alone. These living human beings exist in a state of suspended development, creating ethical dilemmas about their fate. Ready to understand the deeper implications of reproductive technology? Listen now and discover why the technological ability to create life doesn't automatically grant us the moral authority to do so.Purchase IVF Is Not The Way, The False Promise of Artificial ProcreationContact Jack: info@jp2renew.orgJacks Blog on Substack: https://johnpauliirenewal.substack.com/If you're interested in being a sponsor of the Become Who You Are Podcast, please email us at Info@JP2Renew.orgSupport the show, Sign up for our Newsletter: https://jp2renew.org/Support the show

Hey Tribe! On this episode of The Sophisticatedly Ratchet Podcast, we're diving headfirst into one of life's biggest decisions—to have kids or not? The Tribe breaks down the raw realities of parenthood, the freedom of a child-free life, and the societal pressures that come with both choices. From birth control mishaps to the deep-seated judgment toward people without kids, we're keeping it all the way real. We explore whether having children is truly fulfilling or just an expectation, how career and mental health are impacted by parenting, and the importance of a solid support system when raising kids. And of course, we have to ask—are kids really the ultimate motivation in life, or is that just what society wants us to believe? Things get even spicier as we debate whether society unfairly judges parents based on their kids' behavior, discuss high-profile cases like the Menendez brothers, and tackle the age-old question: Does having children affect your dating life? Plus, the team shares personal deal-breakers when it comes to picking a co-parent and what financial stability should look like before bringing a little one into the world. Whether you're a proud parent, thinking about kids, or happily child-free, this episode is packed with unfiltered opinions, hilarious takes, and deep reflections on one of the most personal decisions you'll ever make. We want to hear from you! Do you have a topic request, a question, or want to be a guest? Hit us up at SophisticatedlyRatchet@gmail.com LISTEN, FOLLOW, AND RATE

Welcome to our daily Bitachon Haggadah series. We're now in the piece of בָּרוּךְ שׁוֹמֵר הַבְטָחָתוֹ לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, בָּרוּךְ הוּא. Baruch Shomer Havtachato L'Yisrael Baruch Hu . Blessed is He who keeps His promises to Israel, Blessed is He This a difficult thing to understand, because of course Hashem is going to fulfill his promises! The Tashbetz tells us we have to thank Hashem who is Mavtiach Ve'oseh . We have to recognize He guarantees and He fulfills his guarantee. He guaranteed Avraham Avinu Ve'ezcha L'goy Gadol and He fulfilled it. And this is an important concept that we see throughout. In Shemot Perek ו Pasuk ג Hashem speaks to Moshe and says, " בְּאֵ֣ל שַׁדָּ֑י וּשְׁמִ֣י יְהֹוָ֔ה לֹ֥א נוֹדַ֖עְתִּי לָהֶֽם׃ I appeared to the Avot and I used the name El Shaddai says Rashi, I made a lot of promises but וּשְׁמִ֣י יְהֹוָ֔ה לֹ֥א נוֹדַ֖עְתִּי לָהֶֽם׃ I didn't make known to them My name of Hashem. What does that mean? Lo Nikati Lahem . I wasn't recognized by them B' Midat Amitit Sheli . In the trait of truth (which is expressed in the name of ה י-ה-ו- ) He says that name means " I am loyal and trustworthy to bring to truth," which means to bring to actuality , what I say. But the Avot didn't se e it. 'I guaranteed them and I didn't fulfill it yet.' Then n Perek ו Pasuk ו the Pasuk says אֱמֹ֥ר לִבְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֮ אֲנִ֣י יְהֹוָה ֒ Tell the Jewish people Ani Hashem . I am Hashem . What does that mean? Ha Ne'eman B'havtachati / I am loyal with My guarantee and I'll take them out as I guaranteed . The word בטחון Bitachon has same root as להבטח Lahavtiach . God guarantees and we rely on that guarantee because God is reliable . That's what Ne'eman means .. He's reliable . That's part of the lesson here. Of course, we know that God is going to keep His word, but we want to show you throughout history that God guarantees, and sometimes it takes hundreds or thousands of years until the guarantee comes true. But as we said, Bitachon is being Batuach - feeling guaranteed . I can take it to the bank. In modern Hebrew, insurance is called Bituach . You're guaranteed. If your car has Bituach , you don't worry about the wreckage because it will be paid for. If you have health insurance (and with a good health insurance, they even cover out-of-pocket expenses) you're not worried about the financial impact of your health care. You have everything covered. Life is about I have Bituach . I have a guarantee, I have insurance from God. And God told me I'm going to take care of you. This shows up throughout the Chumash, to tell us this historical lesson. In Bereshit Perek ד Pasuk יט , when it talks about the story of Lemech and his two wives and how Kayin gets killed after seven generations. Rasji says it's V' L'amdeinu to teach us Shekiyei Ma Kadosh Baruch Hu Haftachato that God fulfilled his guarantee that after seven generations Kayin would be killed, and he was. In Bereshit, Perek 9 Pasuk 26 it says בָּר֥וּךְ יְהֹוָ֖ה אֱלֹ֣הֵי שֵׁ֑ם / Blessed is Hashem the God of Shem. What is the blessing? Rashi says, Sh'atid L'shmo Havtachato . He's going to fulfill His guarantee. L'zarot to his children. L'hateit Lahem Et Eretz K'naan. To give them the land of Canaan. This is part of the lesson of the night. God promises and He will fulfill . It might take time. Bereshit Perek 12 Pasuk 2 . Where it says God tells Avraham וְאֶֽעֶשְׂךָ֙ לְג֣וֹי גָּד֔וֹל וַאֲבָ֣רֶכְךָ֔ וַאֲגַדְּלָ֖ה שְׁמֶ֑ךָ וֶהְיֵ֖ה בְּרָכָֽה׃ I will make you a great nation and I will bless you I will make your name great and you shall be a blessing This is exactly the promise that that the Tashbetz said He fulfilled. And why was this promised? Because traveling causes three things to be limited: Procreation, money, and fame. So God promised Avraham, that he was going to have children, money, and fame, even though he was going on the road. And Avraham was so taken with that guarantee that in Perek יד Pasuk כג when he defeated Sedom , he said I'm not taking anything from you. וְלֹ֣א תֹאמַ֔ר אֲנִ֖י הֶעֱשַׁ֥רְתִּי אֶת־אַבְרָֽם׃ / Don't say that you made Avraham Avinu wealthy. God guaranteed my wealth. As it says, וַאֲבָ֣רֶכְךָ֔ He's going to bless me with wealth. I don't want to take money from someone that's going to act like he did it. I'll pass on your money because I know I'm going to get it in a way that I don't have to have someone that's going to take credit. On the Brit Ben HaBetarim ( Bereshit 15,10) Rashi asks What is the purpose of this deal ? He made a deal with him to keep His promise His his guarantee, to give him the land. In Bereshit 21, 7 where it says מִ֤י מִלֵּל֙ לְאַבְרָהָ֔ם Who is it that spoke about this to Avraham ? Rashi says this is a term of praise . What's the praise? Who is great like Hashem, that He kept His guarantee to Avraham, that you're going to have children. It's going to take time. You'll be 100 years old, but you're going to have children. In Vayikra Perek 19, pasuk 25 After it talks about Matanot L'aniyim , giving the food to the poor, it says, Ani Hashem / I am Hashem. Give to the poor, Ani Hashem. Rashi says this Ani Hashem means I'm guaranteeing you. I'm loyal. I'll fulfill it. Rashi says, in the name of Rabbi Akiva , that this is talking to the Yetzer Hara. Someone might say, I'm working so hard. What's in it for me? Why am I giving all this money away? And Hashem says, I guarantee it. I'm loyal. I keep My promises. This is something we have to constantly reiterate and strengthen in ourselves. When Hashem gives a Havtachah, it comes true. In Devarim 31,21 Where it says, כִּ֛י לֹ֥א תִשָּׁכַ֖ח מִפִּ֣י זַרְע֑וֹ / Torah will not be forgotten from the seed of the Jewish people, Rashi says, This is a promise. The Torah will never totally be forgotten from the Jewish people. And we see it live today. And now, being that it's Erev Pesach , this is our final push for Lev Chana/Lev Zechariah. Hashem tells us before the holidays, If you take care of mine, I'll take care of yours. That's a guarantee from God. If You make my children happy. I'll make your children happy. You still have a chance. The easiest thing is just Zelle it to, Rabbisutton@gmail.com and give some money towards clothing for needy families for the holidays. Hashem guarantees and He comes through.

Season 8, Episode 116 "Alone, but never lonely."I'm recapping my Valentine's Day weekend and my Grandma's 69th birthday celebration. This week reinforced that while I may be alone in my relationship status, I'm never lonely. I reflect on the importance of self-love, self-treatment, and how being whole within yourself prepares you for a monogamous relationship. As a certified lover girl, I value genuine connections, but I admit that love can feel scary when you realize you can't control how someone else feels about you. And what does it even mean when someone says “let's just try”?Beyond love and relationships, I dive into an important conversation about safe sex and procreation, discussing the heartbreaking case out of Detroit where two children tragically lost their lives to hypothermia after their mother, who was homeless, reached out to their father for help, but he declined. This leads me to reflect on the importance of being intentional about who you have children with, as well as my estranged relationship with my father.Plus, exciting updates—I'll be a guest on the Hurtbros Podcast this Thursday, and I'm hosting Nail Nation VA's 3rd Annual Nail Tech Battle!Main Topics Discussed:1.

We're asking the big question: What's the point of marriage? Is it love? Partnership? Survival? Procreation? Do we expect too much from our partners when it comes to our own happiness?

Plus, we wrap things up by airing our own issues—because what's a marriage chat without a little oversharing?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

In Season 5 Episode 7 of the FM Podcast, we continue the conversation of how to advocate for healthy marital sexuality. Last episode we addressed the first two biblical purposes of marital sex: Procreation and Partnership. In this episode we touch on the biblical purposes of:Pleasure - God purposely created sex for pleasure and not just progeny through procreation.Praise - Sexual intimacy in marriage, when rightly understood, becomes an act of worship - not of one another - but of the gracious goodness of God.Picture - Sexual intimacy, between one man and one women in marriage, is designed to be a picture of the union of Jesus Christ and His Bride, the Church.Mentioned in this episode:Scripture: Proverbs 5:18-19, Romans 12:1-2, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Ephesians 5:32FM Podcast Season 2 - Six Keys to Better Sex in Marriage (check this out for a deeper dive into this conversation of healthy biblical sexuality)Visit www.lakewoodlife.org/local-missions/ and scroll down to Disaster Relief to inquire of ways to help with Hurricane Helene relief efforts.

What is the purpose of sex in marriage? What was God's design? Scriptures reveals 3 purposes: Procreation, Companionship, and Pleasure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we dive into the start of the Democratic National Convention, dissecting the abortion policies of the Democratic Party. With Planned Parenthood offering free abortions at the convention, we're digging into why it's so crucial to really understand the truth about abortion. It's time to focus on the actual policies, not just the personalities, when we're making our voting decisions. We also address the Evangelicals for Harris Zoom call, providing a critical analysis of the bad theology presented and why it doesn't align with our Christian faith.

Together, with Fr. Mike, we begin the section on the sacrament of holy Matrimony. We unpack two elements of the sacrament, namely marriage in the order of creation and marriage under the regime of sin. Fr. Mike emphasizes that marriage is a partnership between man and woman that is oriented towards the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1601-1608.

What is the purpose of marriage? Is it companionship? Pleasure? Procreation? Having a clear vision for the purpose of something is key in living in harmony with it. As we look at Scripture, we will see that the purpose of marriage is something much bigger than just two people. Marriage is meant to be a picture of Christ and the Church. But what is a picture for? A picture is something that is created by its designer to express the real thing — every marriage that is lived in light of eternity expresses the reality of God's desire to have a personal and intimate relationship with ALL of mankind!It can be so easy for married couples to adopt a shallow attitude in their marriage — to get caught up in the busyness of life forgetting the very purpose for why God has brought them together. But God designed marriage for something so much more glorious than just being busy and living together. In this study on the command of Christ to Honor Marriage, you will be encouraged to see God's purpose for marriage not just for the present, but in light of all eternity!Want to go deeper in studying this command of Christ?

On today's Mafia Moments, we discuss some heavy hitting topics with Veronica Max, including the hormone crisis, birth control, home births, and periods. You won't want to miss this one! If you enjoyed this episode, check out the full-length conversation with Veronica Max on episode 233 of the Meat Mafia Podcast!- Veronica Max, owner of Ultra Personal Healthcare, discusses the hormone crisis affecting both men and women due to factors like diet, lifestyle, and environment. [01:15]- Cell phones and screens can negatively impact sex hormones and fertility. Men are losing interest in relationships and have low sex drive, possibly due to low testosterone. [02:30]- Veronica shares her journey of seeking external validation before doing emotional work to find inner happiness. She chose home births despite fear of mainstream medical system. [05:30]- Home birth is a profound, vulnerable experience supported by midwives. Veronica gained comfort and confidence from her first to fourth home birth. [09:00] - Surrendering to the body's divine power during childbirth is key. Birthing at home without medical intervention is empowering. [14:15]- Veronica provides recommendations for finding a good midwife and resources for those interested in home birth. [17:30]- Misconceptions and fear surround home birth and birth control. There is a lack of education about women's cycles and fertility. [19:30]- Celebrating rites of passage like a girl's first period is important to avoid negative emotions from not acknowledging milestones. [21:45]- Society is disconnected from our bodies and fertility. Procreation is a fundamental aspect of life. [23:00]

Welcome back to AAP! We were really grateful this month to host Professor Rivka Weinberg to criticise the two ideologies that guide a lot of our thinking at Antinatalist Advocacy, namely antinatalism and Effective Altruism. Can it sometimes be ethical to procreate? Does Effective Altruism hold up to scrutiny in both theory and practice? And is John hopelessly misguided for being a card-carrying consequentialist?

In this episode with bioethicist and moral philosopher Dr. Travis N. Rieder, we discuss his latest book Catastrophe Ethics, in which he explores how individuals can make morally decent choices in a world of confusing and often terrifying problems. We explore the morally exhausting and puzzling nature of modern life in which individual actions can often seem insignificant in the face of massive and complex systems. Rieder offers suggestions on how to overcome this sense of ‘moral dumbfounding' so that we can better align our actions with our values towards ethical living. Among the small and large individual actions that we discuss, Rieder places a special focus on the ethics of procreation — what he calls monumental ethics — and the degree of moral deliberation that is needed to arrive at the decision to have a biological child. We also discuss the dangers of utilitarian ethics, with a specific focus on Effective Altruism.

"Once there was only God." So we should probably ask him about his purposes for sex. Join us as we dive into this "hot topic."A synopsis of the Bible's teaching on sex:1) Sex and covenant2) Sex and procreation3) Sex and enjoyment4) Sex and the grace of GodText: Genesis 2:24; 1:28; Proverbs 5:18-19; Song of Solomon 5:10-16; John 4:1-26

I remember God speaking to my heart and saying, “I'm going to give you a big family, and it's going to be a major part of your ministry because I want people to understand how much I love people and love children.”—Penny TucciThe heart posture is this: Lord, You own me. My life has been purchased by You. You own my past that You have forgiven me of, You own my future and my destiny. What do you want for me?

HELLO HELLO Chosen Girly Swirlies! HAPPY TELL ME BOUT IT TUESDAY- and welcome back for another "HOT TEA HOT TAKE" where today, we are talking all things procreation. How weird are we? Seriously though, we are having a casual chat about motherhood, wifehood, single-hood, and how the Church can be a wholistic supporter of women in their true identity- in CHRIST- not their "role" in life or society. We cover questions like: How has the church missed an opportunity to have  conversion about those that don't have children and how they enrich our congregations?  Is having children biblical? Or tradition? What does the bible say about family that we can apply to us today? We do mention some triggering topics such as infertility- so please feel free to skip this episode if you need to take care of yourself, as we briefly mention this topic.

We should be thinking God's way and not allowing the world to think for us. We should be making decisions based on the Lordship of Jesus in our life, not based on the culture. And we should be saying loud and clear with our lives that children are a blessing.

The less we think, the more we feel. The less we learn to think, the more we rely on our feelings. We need to learn to think through things so we aren't dependent on our emotions.

Many of us had strong convictions about not getting the COVID-19 vaccination because we didn't know what it would do to our bodies and how it might change us. Yet, when it comes to child prevention, there are pharmaceutical cocktails that Christians are putting into their bodies with no consideration about the affects on our bodies.When we take away the divinity of God and the humanity of man working together in procreation by literally changing the creation from the way it was made to function, that should be something we are concerned about.If you have questions and comments about this episode, email Pastor Keith at podcast@nrpastors.com 

If we say that children are a blessing, why do we want to limit that blessing? The concern is that we put so little effort into coming to the decision to limit how many children we have. This episode stirs up a conversation on procreation. Send your questions and comments about this to Pastor Keith at podcast@nrpastors.com. We are going to spend the next few weeks on this. Listen to the episodes, and give this real consideration so that no matter what decision you make, the decision is not just a cultural cave-in, but it is truly an intellectual and spiritually-inspired decision that you make because Jesus is Lord of ALL of your life.

Procreation is an unspoken rule in many communities. The lack of children creates lots of shame, especially for women. Interestingly, there is higher incidence of specific fertility challenges that occur specifically in the South Asian Community. I go deeper into this conversation with fertility expert and coach Dr. Erica Bove. Erica Bove, MD, is a double board certified OB-GYN and Reproductive Endocrinologist, as well as a certified life coach through The Life Coach School. She is a practicing fertility specialist at the University of Vermont. She is also the founder of Love and Science: Thriving through Infertility, as well as the head coach for Dr. Kavetha Sun's Heal Your Relationships Program. In the fertility world, she has a keen interest in marrying an evidence-based approach with intuitive knowing n the context of a trusting physician patient relationship. As a life coach and thought leader, she is passionate about bringing this same integration to the coaching relationship. She is an expert in the field of sex and intimacy, as well as embodiment and mindful self compassion. She believes that the best outcomes are obtained when the whole person is seen and understood. Her mission is to heal and support the healers and to create a legacy she is proud of. Website: loveandsciencefertility.com
