Listen now
Description
In our 13th episode we speak with Misty Prinsen, a foster mother and family advocate based in Auckland New Zealand. A few years ago Misty discovered she was carrying a severely disabled child and doctors recommended a termination of her pregnancy. The suggestion led her into a complete re-evaluation of her concept of the value of life, children, and her faith. Misty speaks candidly and openly about an important and critical topic, wrestling with the realities of raising a child with special needs and the balance of believing for a miracle while accepting God's will regardless of the outcome. We are so grateful for her honesty and vulnerability, and know after listening you will be challenged to reconsider whether you might be drawing the boundaries of you own family too small.
