The dilemma of a growing orphan
population is one that is not widely discussed in the average church. On the
contrary, it is little talked about. And therefore adoption as a way to end the
orphan crisis is barely discussed either—even though adoption is the heart of
the Gospel message.
Yet, over 160 million
children in the world are without any parents. And America boasts the
stunning figure of some144,000 boys and girls in foster care needing to be
adopted.
Through some candid and inspiring interviews
with adoptive families, Rescued –
The Heart of Adoption and Caring for Orphans highlights the call to serve the
fatherless, the hard-core realities of what it involves and the addresses the following questions:
Is God asking me personally to
adopt? How can I know?
Do I have what it takes to adopt?
Will I love an adopted child the
same as a biological child?
