In this episode, Lauren talks about the spiritual warfare that comes when you show up as a midwife. She discuses

• Fear of persecution/what this work will cost me

• Overcoming fear by through faith in Him

• Why following Jesus' call into birthwork is your ultimate safeguard

• Why the real question is not whether or not you can be safe in birth work but whether or not you are called

• How screening your clients for the Lord’s release to serve them is the #1 discernment tool in light of feeling safe

• Ultimately, the persecution midwives experience comes from the enemy against those who safeguard life

Lauren ends with a very beautiful prayer for faith over fear for those who are called to serve Him in birthwork.
