The Adoption & Foster Care Journey
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Welcome to ONM - a podcast to encourage, educate and equip you to care for children in crisis through adoption, foster care and kinship care.
“I am laid low in the dust;
preserve my life according to your word.”
Psalm 119:25
At some point in this journey of raising other people’s children, caregivers will experience grief, loss, or sorrow. The little by little disappearance of a life we thought we’d live. Our expectations of family and future seem to evaporate like the morning dew on a hot July day—and we don’t realize it until we’re feeling dry, empty, burned.
This week, host Sandra Flach transparently shares about grief and sorrow from her twenty plus years of experience as an adoptive and kinship parent. Listen in as she talks about her struggles and offers three points of encouragement for fellow adoptive parents.
