A Show Affirming Faith and Life

Am watching now the newly released twelfth season of BBC’s Call the Midwife streaming on Netflix (and probably other sources, but this is the one I use). What a terrific show! Where else can you see a popularized, but faithful rendition of Christian monasticism alongside life-affirming midwifery care for expectant mothers?

True, the show often pays lip service to the supposed virtue of abortion, but for the most part, it champions the rights and stories of mothers in all walks of life and in all socioeconomic conditions. I really recommend the BBC in general, but this show specifically! Hope you get a chance to at least sample its wonder.
