MIPodcast #52—Reconceiving infertility in the Bible, with Candida Moss and Joel Baden
Channel: Maxwell Institute
Date: 2016-08-30

Biblical scholars Candida Moss and Joel Baden teamed up to write a book about the different views on infertility and families found in the Bible. From the apparently barren matriarchs of the Old Testament like Sarah and Rachel to Paul's efforts to forge a new family in Christ, biblical views are more diverse than you might expect. 

Moss and Baden tell the story in their book "Reconceiving Infertility: Biblical Perspectives on Procreation and Childlessness." Not only do they clarify ancient perspectives on infertility, they also provide ways to create a more supportive religious environment for women and men experiencing infertility today.
