Foster Care: Making a Difference During the Formative Years

According to the Office of Administration for Children and Families, children whose parents are no longer in the picture will wait more than a year and a half until they are adopted. While most children have a healthy parental influence during their formative years, these kids are left lacking. Jon and Dawn Stone, authors of Missional Fostering, advocate for supporting these children through foster care. They discuss the dangers kids in foster care go through and how we as a church can make an impact.
