A Call to Love
Considering adoption but scared or full of questions?
If you’re considering adoption or have just adopted, you’ve no doubt discovered that it’s a spiritual and emotional journey as much as a physical and legal one. A Call to Love provides guidance for typical struggles you may face and shares stories from other parents about God’s provision, love, comfort, and direction.
The stories are real and raw, but so are the insights and encouragement they convey.
Fears, questions, delays, unmet expectations-these and more can test your commitment and require you to draw on spiritual and emotional reserves in surprising ways. A Call to Love will prepare you to make the journey and thrive as an adoptive family.
This book also offers devotional exercises and encourages you to record your own spiritual journey by including pages uniquely designed for that purpose.
Are you considering or entering the adoption or foster care process? A Call to Love joins you in your journey, offering spirit-filled wisdom and encouragement through the first year with a new child. Devotional exercises will equip you to record your thoughts and emotions. You will also receive spiritual insights from many adoptive parents, including stories from people who have adopted from the foster-care system.
As parents, we never know what to expect. That is all too true for many adoptive parents whose children are more prone to battle mental illness. Don’t struggle alone! Through a variety of stories, you will receive strength and encouragement so you can seek appropriate help as needed.
Author Julie Holmquist guides parents along the journey and vulnerably unpacks the struggles and joys of her own adoption stories. A Call to Love helps you fully prepare both emotionally and spiritually for the path God may be calling you to walk.
