Beth's Story

Beth’s Story

“I didn’t even know how much I needed it.” 

When Beth came to Life Forward, she was focused on caring for her two young children—her 17-month-old son and 3-month-old daughter. Life was full, and she hadn’t planned on adding anything new to her plate. But when she was offered a chance to go through Springboard, something told her to say yes. 

Springboard is a series of lessons that help women learn more about the purpose, design and function of the female body —offered at Life Forward to provide space for reflection, growth, and Gospel-centered support. 

As Beth began the lessons, she felt something she hadn’t expected: clarity. 

“It felt like God was answering my prayers,” she said. “I didn’t even know how much I needed it.” 

Right now, Beth knows she doesn’t want to have more children. Through Springboard, she found the courage to choose abstinence and take a step toward something healthier. 

She’s also thinking ahead—about learning more, understanding postpartum depression, and building a village of support around her and her kids. 

Before she left, we offered to pray with her. She said yes. And when we told her she could reach out again if she ever needed prayer, she didn’t hesitate. 

“I will definitely be calling for that prayer,” she said.
