You do(ula) what?
1401 (Strong’s Concordance): doulos — servant, bondservant. Original Word: δοῦλος
Today, a doula is someone who provides steady emotional support and guidance during labor and birth. They walk alongside families, offering encouragement in one of life’s most transformative moments.
Scripture uses the same root word—doulos—to describe those who devoted themselves as bondservants of Christ. Their lives bore witness to serving God’s purpose above their own.
In the same way, 1401 Ministries was born out of that dual calling: to serve families through birth work, and to serve the body of Christ by walking alongside the Church. My heart is to help others navigate the seasons of life—whether in the delivery room or in discipleship—always pointing back to the unchanging truth of Jesus.
Just as birth ushers in new life, I believe God is stirring a fresh revival. This ministry exists to encourage, equip, and serve as we step into that new season together.
1401 Ministries was formerly known as Abby Johnson Photography and Doula Care.
