August 25, 2014 by Nama
Each day i see a bit more clearly that our marriage is the most important relationship in which I can be working out my Faith.
If my Lord has promised it or he has commanded it there is no more important place for me to practice it than in my relationship with Tim.
Philippians 4 is a favorite passage of mine, what does this passage look like in my marriage? Continue reading

Adoption and Finances – How much and why?

A very helpful look at adoption costs by our son Travis.

The most difficult part of the adoption journey for me has been thinking about how to fund it. Adoption can be very expensive. Grappling with the reality of “How are we ever going to afford this?” is simply not a lot of fun.
When Melissa and I started to recognize that we were being called to adoption, one of the first questions I started asking was “Will we be able to afford it?”.

Hooray!
Reacting to some combination of sand, wind and salt water. Not the news about our home study.
Legally we could be matched with a child to adopt tomorrow if the circumstances all lined up. Those words are so crazy for me to even type! Continue reading
