In this first episode of the Hunger for Connection, you'll learn about the drive for peace that lives within every one of us and how it impacts the way we show up in relationship to one another.

You will see how understanding the pursuit of peace as a type of hunger can help you in your pursuit of peace when it comes to caring for children from hard places -- those placed into our homes through foster care or adoption.

I hope you are served by this episode. If so, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend.
