Loryn Smith brings 30+ years of child welfare experience as owner of Finally Home Christian Adoption Services, sharing her journey of fostering 120 children and adopting many into her family.

• Service without sacrifice is a counterfeit
• Being faithful is our responsibility; outcomes belong to God
• Finding freedom in being "just a character" in God's bigger story
• Relationships with children matter more than their achievements
• Living in today rather than worrying about tomorrow
• Creating community with people who understand your challenges
• Evicting unhelpful thoughts that rent space in your mind
• Redefining success beyond cultural expectations
• Hard circumstances reveal where grace meets self-sufficiency
• The goal is to hear "well done, good and faithful servant"
