Should Christians abandon contraception?

00:00
00:00

While most Protestant Christians have been at ease with using contraception for generations, there is a growing movement to re-examine the ethics of this, with more and more evangelicals asking if perhaps their Catholic brothers and sisters may have a point. At the same time, increasing numbers of women in society more broadly are turning away from hormonal contraception, believing its physical and mental side effects to no longer be worth it. In this episode we explore the history of the pill and the church’s evolving thinking on birth control. And we dive into the complicated ethics too. If you believe life begins at conception, can contraception sometimes amount of unintentional abortion? Does it make sense to reject chemical or physical barrier contraception, while still believing the rhythm method is fine? And what does it mean to ensure the procreative and unitive aspects of sex remain central to a Christian marriage?
