Adopting the Orphans of IVF with Kelsey Dame

Listen to this episode on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

When Kelsey and Frankie Dame couldn’t conceive naturally, they were offered IVF as the obvious solution. But as believers, they didn’t want to assume that they should pursue IVF just because they could. Instead, they asked, “What does the Christian worldview say about this?” Their journey through infertility is thought-provoking and redemptive. It helps us think well about navigating conversations about IVF in a culture where our ethics haven’t caught up to our technology.
