11m
In the seventh video, “Rejoicing in Her: Our Disposition of Heart,” participants are invited to explore the three essential dispositions of the heart necessary when speaking with a woman in crisis: prayer, leisure, and delight. It is essential to root ourselves in prayer, and to allow ourselves to be moved by the goodness of the woman before us. This allows us to see her as a beloved daughter of God, with her own dreams and destiny, not as a project, an obstacle, or an argument to be won. It is when a woman is able to see herself as a gift, as beautiful and good, that she is able to move forward in hope and receive the life of her child as a gift.
