177. Foster Care Trials & Triumphs: A Conversation with Kristen Andrus
Ever wonder what it's like to be a foster parent?
Join us on a transformational journey as we converse with Kristen Andrus about our personal experiences and heartfelt lessons learned from being foster parents. We recount the trials and triumphs we've encountered, dissecting misconceptions and challenging societal norms surrounding foster care. We share our story, from our initial calling to aid children in need, to the enriching experiences that have since unfolded, all the while driven by unwavering faith.
We take a moment to reflect on an impactful story of a child, who endured 19 calls seeking a home before finding placement. This poignant narrative is a call-to-arms for all of us, a stark reminder that we, as the church, are the hands and feet of Jesus. Our discussion broadens to spotlight the role of the church in supporting foster care families and touches upon the ongoing crisis in our county.
Moreover, we delve into the tale of our rebranded podcast, A Force to Be Reckoned With - a platform dedicated to championing the cause of fulfilling our God-given purpose. We lay bare the connection between our foster care journey and our podcast's mission. Whether you're contemplating venturing into foster care, seeking ways to contribute to the cause, or looking for inspiration to live your mission, this candid conversation promises to enlighten you.
So why wait? Join the force, and let's make a difference together!
