Encouragement for Foster Parents

Foster care can feel isolating, even within a loving church community, but no one has to walk this journey alone. In this episode, Janet talks with Leah, a foster mom, about biblical encouragement for foster parents and practical ways churches can love and support the families around them. Leah also shares a heartfelt, Scripture-rooted invitation for more Christians to consider fostering, pointing us back to Christ, who has welcomed us all into God’s family through adoption.
