    Ep. 154 5 Things I Know About Heaven

    "I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find til' death, I must never let it get snowed under or turned aside; I must make it the main object of life to press on to that country and to help others to do the same." - C.S Lewis  Perhaps you have felt like you do not fit here on earth. As a Christ follower we were made for our home in heaven. A profession of faith is not a guarantee of a possession of faith. Part of keeping heaven focused thinking is to know the truth and joy of what is ahead for those who choose heaven as their eternal destination. More on our FAITH: What is a Christ Follower?

    Ep. 152 Snowflake Babies - Embryo Adoption with Leslie Hollowell

    Now in its fifth decade, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and other reproduction technology have been the answer to many people's prayers for a family. However, this success has led to an excess of frozen embryos. Nearly 1.5 million babies are in a frozen orphanage. Many biological parents store embryos for further use. When parents have completed their families, they have to decide what to do with the frozen embryos. Donating them to an infertile couple is a popular option. Fertilized babies can be given for adoption through the National Embryo Donation Center. Leslie Hollowell shares her story of embryo adoption and the gift of her son Hudson. For more information Embryo Adoption, contact the National Embryo Donation Center.   Inspiration on HOME and FAMILY @www.nurturingmynest.com   Empty Arms: A Journey of Infertility, Miscarriage and Children The Value of a Mom Loving on Moms With New Babies   Thank you for SHARING this podcast!!!
