Episode Summary With science opening new doors every day, questions about these advances surface in the world of bioethics. Although God did give humanity a “mouth and wisdom”, Christians believe we should use them for His glory. So, when it comes to In Vitro Fertilization, is it right to put a human life in the hands of another human being? What are the ethical implications before, during and after IVF? Host Nick Asimenios and our panel deals with this issue during iEcclesia’s sixth broadcast.
