Audrey answers two listener questions about birth control, financial readiness, and health concerns that can affect family planning. She distinguishes between biblical commands, personal convictions, and areas where sincere believers may reach different conclusions. Drawing from Scripture and her own experiences with pregnancy and five C-sections, Audrey discusses birth control pills, natural family planning, finances, medical counsel, and trusting God through difficult decisions. Throughout the conversation, she encourages Christian couples to view children as blessings and make their decisions prayerfully, with a genuine desire to honor Christ.
