Acerca de esta escucha
When life doesn't work out as planned, Katherine faces one decision after the next - all leading up to the most painful decision of her life. Will she keep her baby?
River Children is the story of a birth mother's journey through the heartbreaking choices of her life to the place of redemption and healing. Follow Katherine as she encounters the twists and turns of life, the breakup of relationships, and the brokenness that results.
Speaking specifically to the hearts of those who have been affected by the currents of adoption, here is Katherine's invitation to walk a mile in her shoes - hopefully, to gain understanding and empathy for the brokenness that often leads a birth mother or father to consider giving up their child for adoption.
Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, discover with Katherine the One who gives beauty for ashes, the One whose love extends to us all and carries us down the river to our destiny.
Within listening to River Children:
- Gain a better understanding that elicits empathy and compassion to support those who are being impacted by adoption
- Katherine's true account will encourage and solace those affected by adoption
- See what God can do in and through the lives of imperfect families by making good grow from the soil of pain and disappointment
- A story that gives prospective adoptive parents a glimpse into the birth parents' experience so as to help them be able to comfortably approach the biological parent(s) if open adoption is in place
- It may provide for you another perspective by which to view your own adoptive process
- For the adoptive child or adult to conclude with confidence that your adoption was done out of pure, undeniable love for you

God's love, plans, and promises for you are forever unfolding. I get it, Momma. I totally get it. Every day you wake up and try your very best. You love, give, and pour out your life for the ones who call you Momma. But no matter how much you offer, there are still days you feel as though you come up short. You worry, "Am I loving these babies enough? Is this ever going to get easier? Why does it seem like I am the only one who cannot balance it all?" Sometimes we just need hope (and maybe a long, uninterrupted nap).

The moment Diane Burke, an author and mother of two grown sons, received an unexpected certified letter in the mail, she had no idea her life would be shaken to its core. Memories of a past she had buried more than forty years ago suddenly resurfaced and she wasn't prepared to deal with them. Steve Orlandi, happily married, father of two and step-father of three, was living the typical middle class American life. But since the age of eight, when he discovered he was adopted, he had led that life dealing with inner questions about his self-identity and genetic history.

Love Is a Verb takes his teaching to the next level. Rather than a typical marriage self-help book filled with lengthy explanations of principles and techniques, it is a compilation of true stories displaying love in action. These stories - written by everyday people - go straight to the hearts of readers, who often say that illustrations are the most effective parts of a book. Gary Chapman adds a "Love Lesson" to each story, showing readers how they can apply the same principles to their own relationships.

Raised in a devoutly Christian home, she endured the unbelievably difficult and complicated odyssey of finding her identity as a woman...without losing her identity in Christ. A journey she barely survived. In God Doesn't Make Mistakes: Confessions of a Transgender Christian, Laurie tells her story of growing up playing a role as unnatural to her as the body with which she was born.

In the startling tragedy of the Amish schoolhouse shooting at Nickel Mines, one story has never been told; Marie Roberts Monville, the wife of the man who created such horror, tells her story for the very first time. It is a story of sorrow and destruction, but also one of majestic deliverance, unending compassion, breathtaking forgiveness, and grace-filled redemption.

Unflinchingly honest and uplifting
Amazing book! The author is so brave in her honesty about her experience and writes in such a compelling way I finished it in one sitting. I would never have believed a book about this sensitive and at times divisive subject could be uplifting, joyous, heartbreaking and beautiful all at the same time. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to know more about adoption or about how to face difficult life decisions. This story will stay in my heart.
