188. Life Update: How Will Foster Care Affect My Biological Kids?


Listen Later

Are you aware of the calling God has on your life?


Our family's dance with the unpredictable rhythms of foster care has been nothing short of a transformative adventure. As we open the doors of our home and hearts, we've been graced with bonds that weave us into the fabric of our community like never before. In this episode, we take an honest look at how fostering has anchored us not only to each other but, more importantly, to our faith in God.


From the quiet whispers of prayer before bedtime to the laughter that echoes through our home, fostering has filled our lives with compassion and strengthened our faith. We've watched our biological children rise to the occasion, building bunk beds and sharing spaces, embodying the very essence of love as Jesus taught us. It's a conversation about the raw and real impacts of opening your life to others and the surprising ways it can draw a family closer, deepening connections and compassion in ways you couldn't have fathomed.


Join us as we recount heartwarming moments of spiritual growth—like the child in our care whose Christmas wish was a Bible and who has now given his heart to Jesus. It's a reflection on the call God has placed on our lives, one that we're eager to continue sharing through our YouTube channel and right here, in the stories we tell and the lives we touch. 


Come along, and be part of the story that's still being written in the lives of our family and the children we embrace in our home.
