Laura Jansson
from Faith and Letters Hosted by Ben Bishop
Laura Jansson is a practicing doula, Orthodox Christian, and the author of Fertile Ground: A Pilgrimage Through Pregnancy, a creative work of theology that examines a broad range of Christian imagery and scripture through the lens of pregnancy and childbirth. From Jesus' exhortation to Nicodemus that he be "born again," to a comparison of labor and birth to the Easter journey through death and resurrection, to meditations on the awesome mystery of a woman's ability to touch the power of God as she participates in literal co-creation, Laura's work is inventive, humane, and deeply moving. Whether you're a parent or not, there's something for everyone here.
