3. Nicole’s Story: A Call Worthy of the Cost


Listen Later

“I could never do foster care because I could never let them go and say goodbye.”

The above statement is a common and genuine sentiment many share when discussing foster care.

Foster care is a journey that can come with unexpected twists and turns, sacrifice, and yes, sometimes even goodbyes and heartache.

Join us today as our Foster Care Program Director, Nicole Bowman, shares her journey to foster care and what led her to where she is today. Nicole speaks candidly about her family’s hardships through their foster care walk, and there’s no doubt this road has come with a cost.

But when we lay our fears down and walk in obedience anyway, ignoring God's call on our lives becomes nearly impossible–even when we know that call will be difficult. He gives us the tools to persevere through the deepest of waters. 

Nicole’s story will inspire you and give you hope as you hear her hindsight perspective of how God has been weaving this story together all along.
