About this title

Synopsis

Hope and help from a fellow foster parent

There are great rewards that come along with being a foster parent, yet there are also great challenges that can leave you feeling depleted, alone, and discouraged. The many burdens of your day--hurting children, struggling biological parents, and a broken system--are only compounded by the many burdens of your heart--confusion, anxiety, heartache, anger, and fear.

With the compassion and insight of a fellow foster parent, Jamie C. Finn helps you see your struggles through the lens of the gospel, bringing biblical truths to bear on your unique everyday realities. In these easy-to-read chapters, you'll find honest personal stories and practical lessons that provide encouragement and direction from God's Word as you walk the journey of foster parenting.
