Orphans

I am passionate about orphan care, partly because that's how God has reshaped my heart, and partly because I'm married to an orphan.

My husband's story is dramatic (you can read part of it here on the Compassion blog), but it is not unique. Knowing that has changed me.

One of the ways Corey redeems his past is by serving on the board of the Christian Alliance for Orphans. He also speaks at their Orphan Summit each year. (Here's a link to this year's Summit, May 2-3 in Nashville.)

Many of my orphan posts detail what I learn at Summit. Others are personal reflections on what it's like to watch an orphan grow into the daddy he never had. (In a word: Miraculous.)
