In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) brings new hope to couples struggling with infertility, yet it also raises profound ethical and theological questions. What happens when procreation shifts from the intimacy of the womb to the laboratory? How do we safeguard dignity, prevent exploitation, and resist the commodification of life? This book offers a Christian ethical response to the promises and dilemmas of IVF. Drawing on lived experience and careful theological reflection, it addresses key concerns such as informed consent, medical authority, social pressure, commodification of IVF, and the meaning of parenthood. It calls for an ethic that balances compassion for couples' longing for children with a critical awareness of the risks and injustices embedded in reproductive technologies. Reimagining Personhood: Christian Ethical Perspectives on In vitro Fertilization among Married Couples offers guidance for churches, communities, and policymakers, affirming that human worth is not defined by reproductive success. It is an essential resource for theologians, ethicists, pastors, couples, and all who seek faithful engagement with the challenges of assisted reproduction.
