Discerning God’s Heart for Birth in 2026

How does God invite mothers to approach birth in 2026? In this episode of Habits of a Mother, Dr. Betsey explores birth through a faith-filled lens inspired by quiet discernment rather than fear or control. You’ll be guided through the A.C.T.S. framework for birth preparation Attention, Care for the body, Trust through preparation, and Surrender and invited into thoughtful reflection with questions that help you prepare physically, mentally, and spiritually for birth. This episode is for mothers seeking peace, wisdom, and grounded preparation in a loud modern birth culture.

Reflection Questions
