And So It Began

When we first discussed writing a book, we considered writing about adoption.

There is such an urgent need for Christians to consider adopting a child/children. Likewise, adoption has played a critical role in our lives and family already.

But the writing path changed for us when--during the 14th month of our own adoption wait--we decided to look for some resources on waiting correctly. Though there were a few good (old) books on the topic of waiting, current resources--we felt--were lacking. Good theologians have said good things about waiting for centuries, but there was a curious lack of books dedicated to the topic.

And so we began collecting wise words on waiting.

When we signed the contract in June for Trust Hope Pray, we believed we were about 4 months away from bringing our child home from overseas.

Little did we know that our book was going to be a first-hand account of some of the most difficult days of our lives.

God is good.
