Building Your Family through Adoption

Have you ever considered building your family the way God builds his? Adoption is not only a response to the needs of children who don’t have a family, but also a profound picture of God’s love for all the children he has adopted into his family.  Ed Stetzer talks with Andrew Hopper about his book, Chosen: Building Your Family the Way God Builds His and the adoption of believers as children of God and links that to the privilege of adopting and fostering children into their own families on Ed Stetzer Live.
