Adoption Series

Luke 15:20, NIV
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him”

Adoption is a topic that is very close the heart of the Christian. Adoption is something that each person who gives their heart to Christ experiences. God adopts each of us into His family and makes us coheirs with Jesus. The process of adoption is also a process which we can see occuring in the world as well. So many people have either been adopted into a family or have been a part of a family that had adopted someone. When this happens there are a range of emotions that occurs by everyone involved. What must it feel like to be adopted? What must it be like if your parents were to adopt another child? What would it be like to be the parents of a child who you have adopted?

Join us at 321 Ministries as we explore the topic of adoption. We will hear and read first-hand testimonies from individuals who have experienced adoption from different points of view. We will explore biblical truth about the topic to see what the Lord says and we will discuss the practical ways that we can support others as they experience the process of adoption.
