Maison d'édition: Baker Books

Synopsis

Being a foster parent is hard. Journey through Scripture with a mom who gets it, and find encouragement, direction, and hope for your calling. 
 
Though the words foster care are not in the Bible, the call for God's people to care for the vulnerable is clear throughout all of Scripture. Foster parents--filled with faith and love and purpose--follow this call into caring for vulnerable kids and families. Too often, these same foster parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, confused, and emptied--in need of being refreshed and encouraged for the day to come.  
 
With sixty devotions written especially for foster parents by a foster parent, Filled offers life-giving promises and hope-filled truths specific to the unique joys and challenges faced by those who open their homes and hearts to kids.  
 
Each reading includes: 
 
● a Scripture passage that provides encouragement, teaching, or guidance 
● an explanation of the biblical text 
● a real-life anecdote from the author's experience as a foster parent 
● suggestions for continued reading
