179. Infertility, Adoption, and the Meaning of Family | Emily Chapman
About this episode
Tammy Peterson interviews Emily Chapman about infertility, adoption, and the meaning of family life in the context of faith and community.
Are modern culture and technology quietly pulling us away from faith, family, and authentic community? In this episode of The Tammy Peterson Podcast, I sit down with bestselling Catholic author Emily Chapman to explore the deeper spiritual questions surrounding motherhood, infertility, hospitality, and the meaning of family life. Emily shares her journey through years of infertility, her reflections on adoption and IVF, and how her faith shaped her understanding of dignity, sacrifice, and surrender. We also discuss the loneliness epidemic in modern culture, why community and hospitality matter more than ever, and the cultural narratives that discourage young women from embracing motherhood and family life. Emily Chapman is a Catholic author, speaker, and mother of three whose work explores faith, scripture, family life, and the beauty of everyday domestic life through a sacramental worldview.
