Product Description
The Christian Woman's Guide to Childbirth is a great resource for scriptures regarding pregnancy, birth and beyond. Mrs. Evans provides the reader with plenty of proof that God is indeed in control of the birthing process. Her descriptions of the labor process are super. She gives many insights into the physical and emotional feelings of labor and how to deal with them in a biblical manner. Her commentary on the Fall of man and pain in childbirth is wonderful. I gained much from her wisdom regarding women allowing the toils of labor to bring them closer to God and to change our views of labor from punishment to opportunity for spiritual growth. Her chapter on nutrition left much to be desired, however; as did her comments on possible complications of labor and birth. Her answer to almost any variation of normal seems to be surgical birth rather than working hard at solving the problem. Her list of women at risk for complications and c-section is too inclusive as almost every woman could manage to fit into it. Over all the book is a wealth of scripture and hope. I would use it in my classes to share Christ centered birth with my students.
