  Have you ever wondered what adoptees and their families need from family and faith? This book blends personal experience, expert insights, adoptee interviews, trauma research, and scriptural interpretation so The Church and the Christian community can re-envision adoption to better serve adoptees and their families.  Quotations from adoptees and birth mothers enliven the book and build a deep empathy for those touched by adoption. Reimagining Adoption builds compassion for adoptees and first families. In that compassionate space lies the healing and belonging for which adoptees profoundly yearn.Reimagining Adoption examines beliefs, practices, and Scripture to attune to the needs of vulnerable children and their families and align with Christian values. It examines the historical adoption practices, reviews current practices and proposes revisions.

  Understanding Foucault

  Jean-Clet Martin

  Through his writings, Michel Foucault proclaims not only that God is dead, but that man is also dying. 
  
  He examines objects deemed unworthy that have never been taken into account by philosophy. This is the case with crime, madness, sexuality, the excesses of literature and evil. He offers an extraordinary history of them. Instead of understanding our societies through what they exhibit, Foucault emphasizes what they hide in order to reveal a new image, another photograph of our values. 
  
  This short essay allows us to understand a complex thinker and a philosophy that uses a sledgehammer to demolish the idols of modernity.

  Richard Wurmbrand, born on March 24, 1909, was a Romanian Christian minister of Jewish descent. He was a youth during a time of anti-Semitic activity in Romania, but it was later, after becoming a believer in Jesus Christ as Messiah, and daring to publicly say that Communism and Christianity were not compatible, that he experienced imprisonment and torture for his beliefs. After serving five years of a second prison sentence, he was ransomed for $10,000. After spending time in Norway and England, he and his wife Sabina, who had also been imprisoned, emigrated to America and dedicated the rest of their lives to publicizing and helping Christians who are persecuted for their beliefs. He wrote more than eighteen books, translated into more than 60 languages, the most widely known being "Tortured for Christ." He founded the international organization, Voice Of The Martyrs, which aids Christians around the world who are persecuted for their faith. Wurmbrand died on February 17, 2001. Recording obtained and published by Rick Sheridan.
