Quiverfull

Quiverfull is a Christian theological position that sees large families as a blessing from God. It encourages procreation and abstaining from all forms of birth control and natural family planning in the pursuit of expanding the family. The position takes its name from Psalm 127:3–5, where children are likened to a gift and described as valuable, comparable to arrows in the hands of a warrior.
