In this episode of our spiritual growth podcast, I sit down with my friend Christina to talk about womanhood, identity in Christ, and wholeness for childfree women in the church. We talk honestly about the questions people ask, the assumptions that can sting, and what it looks like to walk with God with real faith when your life does not match the expected script. Christina shares how healing has shaped her choices, how she and her husband have grown closer to God together, and why childfree women can be a gift to christian community. We also offer practical ways churches can make space without pushing women into boxes. If you have ever felt unseen, pressured, or “less than,” this conversation is for you. If you are a mom, it is for you too. There is room for faith in real life, and God meets us in every path.
