Spiritual Birthing


Book Description

Although there are many books written on this subject, I believe that God's desire is for His people to have a different perspective regarding spiritual birthing.God revealed to me how Mary, the mother of Jesus, is an excellent example of the way God desires to birth the plans, purpose and destiny that He has for every believer. As we study her life we are be able to see how God called her, equipped her and birthed through her the spiritual Savior the world needed. She gave birth to the Word of God. God desires to spiritually birth His Word, His plans and His purposes through others too.

Spiritual Childbirth


Book Description

Spiritual Childbirth explores the reclaiming of the power of childbirth by women as their own birthright; a process that began in the 1960s, advanced in the 1980s, and continues through the current time. As women begin once again to take charge of their own pregnancies and labors, it is natural for their minds to turn to matters of spirit since birth is itself a very spiritual experience once the medical filter is pulled away. Many women are seeking to educate themselves beyond the physiological aspects of birth and to learn how their spirits and emotions come into play during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Spiritual Childbirth covers not only physiological occurrences of the birthing process and routine medical procedures, but also explores the realms of the spirit and gives thoughtful homage to the inner working of the female mind and soul during this formative and unique experience.
