In this episode, we "Zoom" in with Paris Yanno is the Father's Heart Director at the Ohio Church Multiplication Network.  She is a wife, mom of three biological children, and a woman whose heart grew far beyond the walls of her own home. Paris and her husband felt called to open their lives to children in crisis, choosing to foster for an entire decade. Over those ten years, they welcomed numerous displaced kids—each with their own story, their own struggles, and their own need for a safe place to land.

Paris shares how fostering shaped her family, stretched her faith, and transformed her understanding of love and sacrifice. She also tells the powerful story of how three of those children became permanent members of their family through adoption.

This conversation is honest, hopeful, and deeply moving. Whether you’re curious about foster care, wrestling with a sense of calling, or simply needing a reminder that ordinary families can make an extraordinary impact, Paris’s story will inspire you to see what’s possible when we make room for others.
