The church’s role in infertility: Part 2

8.17.2015
|
Daily Grace

The church strives to walk with people through the ups and downs of life. The Bible reminds us that we are called to cradle the emotionally and physically vulnerable members of our community. Blessed are those who care for those in need (Psalm 41:1). When someone is going through the grief of the death of a close friend or family member, caring people are often quick to call and check in or send a card. Rarely does someone bring a casserole to the house to support a couple coping with their inability to get or stay pregnant.

Tomorrow: 7 ways we can support couples and individuals struggling with infertility

This message was adapted from “Struggling to cope: Where is the church in times of infertility?” written by Lindsay Mack that first appeared in the May 2015 issue of Café magazine
