Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse joins Ken on Driving Home to Faith for a candid discussion about IVF and why so many Catholics and other Christians may not fully understand its moral and practical implications. Dr. Morse emphasizes that every child conceived through IVF has inherent dignity and is a precious child of God, while distinguishing the dignity of the child from concerns about the means by which the child is conceived.

Drawing on her own experience with infertility, Dr. Morse discusses the emotional vulnerability couples can face when they struggle to conceive and why these difficult decisions should be considered before a crisis arises. The conversation also examines the embryos created, frozen, or lost during IVF and the difficult moral questions families can face afterward.

Dr. Morse points listeners toward restorative reproductive medicine, an approach that seeks to identify and treat the underlying causes of infertility rather than bypass them. She encourages couples, families, clergy, and young adults to learn about these alternatives before infertility becomes an immediate and emotionally overwhelming concern.
