“The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.” (Prov. 18:17) We (Janny & Samantha) are back at it again with our favorite topic: vaccines. This time, from a biblical perspective. Few subjects cause more controversy than vaccination - even in the church. While some church leaders have stepped out in support of vaccination, voices of opposition or concern are often ignored on the basis that "the science is settled."

We believe such a complex issue warrants further discussion among believers and non-believers alike. However, regardless of where you land on the topic of vaccination, we are calling on the body of Christ to publicly support the religious freedoms that allow Christians to live in accordance with the guiding of the Holy Spirit in their lives. The freedom to opt out of all or some vaccines is one such issue.

We hope this episode will provide some much needed context for this issue and prompt you to discuss this with other believers.

Zach Bush, MD: The Landscape of Chronic Health Conditions & What Now?

"Public good can have private shortfalls, and sometimes what edifies the group decimates the individual." Joining me today is Sarah Bridges, mother to Porter, whose lifelong vaccine injury was awarded compensation through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. This conversation is the story of Porter's injury and a look behind the curtains of Vaccine Court, as we've come to call it, and the difficulties in fighting a system set up for your failure. The audio transcript is available on my blog post here. Mentioned in the podcast:Sarah's memoir about Porter's vaccine injury and struggle with the government system: A Bad ReactionChildren's Health DefensePhysicians for Informed Consent

Vaccine Court is Real. Here is Porter's Story

Kimberly Van Der Beek, well-respected mama of five, joins the podcast to share some of what she's learned along the way and what she wished she'd known with her first child. Kimberly shares invaluable insight yet we hardly scratch the surface of newborns!
