Navigating Reproductive Technologies with Catholic Ethicist John DiCamillo
Plus FREE ethics consultations!
In this episode, we’re joined by John DiCamillo, Ethicist and Personal Consultations Director at the National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC).
With the moral landscape of fertility interventions becoming increasingly intricate, many Catholics find themselves navigating a maze of questions. IVF is widely acknowledged as problematic, but what about other interventions like gamete intrafallopian transfer or intrauterine insemination? Especially when these methods involve the couple’s own gametes, the ethical considerations can be daunting.
John brings 12 years of expertise as a full-time ethicist to the table, offering insights into how the NCBC provides guidance on these very issues. Through research, writing, publications, and education, the NCBC stands as a beacon for those seeking clarity in the area of Catholic bioethics.
Tune in as we discuss the dilemmas faced by couples exploring fertility treatments, the principles that can help discern the morality of different methods, and the invaluable role of personal consultations in addressing these sensitive topics.
Whether you’re a couple considering your options, a healthcare professional, or simply interested in the intersection of faith and science, this episode promises a wealth of knowledge and perspective.
Listen now and join us on this journey of understanding, faith, and ethical decision-making in the brave new world of fertility.

Southern California Catholic Homeschooling Conference
If you’re a homeschooling family (or homeschooling curious) in Southern California, check out the conference coming up next month. They have an amazing lineup of speakers (and bonus: it’s at the church where my husband was received into the Church back in high school!).
VIRTUAL Catholic Homeschooling Conference
If you can’t make it out to Southern California, check out this VIRTUAL option.
I remember standing at a crossroads when my oldest was in kindergarten, feeling uncertain about the path ahead. Then, I attended a Catholic homeschooling conference — even though she was already attending Catholic school. It was at that conference that I found a community that shared not only my faith but also a passion for a different kind of education—one that resonates with our values and vision.
The conference was a beacon of light, offering vision, inspiration, and confidence to embark on the homeschooling journey. It’s a decision that has profoundly enriched our family life, second only to my cherished experiences of embracing Catholicism and marrying my wonderful husband.
Now, it’s your turn to experience this transformative event. The Catholic Homeschooling Conference is brimming with amazing talks that will empower, enlighten, and inspire you. Whether you’re a seasoned homeschooler or just considering the possibility, there’s something here for everyone.
I warmly encourage you to sign up and join us. It’s more than a conference; it’s a community and a shared journey towards nurturing our children’s education and faith.
Sign up today and be part of a movement that’s changing lives, one family at a time.
