What can we do to make a world where children can thrive? In the wake of challenges to Roe v. Wade, I am wondering more about what happens when children are born into this world than what happens in the womb. What happens to those who carry a fetus to birth? Do we care for their bodies? Do we care for their babies? What might our preparation for the baby Jesus have to teach us about the world we are leaving for those who have not yet joined us. Perhaps this is a better place for us to put our energies as people of faith? perhaps?
