I've been reading a great book lately, "Adoption For Life - The Priority of Adoption for Christian Families and Churches" by Russell D. Moore. A few things have really been sticking in my brain:
1. Jesus lineage in the Bible is not traced back through his biological mother, Mary, but rather through his adoptive father, Joseph.
2. Satan works at trying to create orphans, and God works at redeeming them.
3. "When it's Jesus versus the self, babies are caught in the crossfire. And it's always that way."
4. "The protection of children isn't charity. It isn't part of a political program fitting somewhere between tax cuts and gun rights or between carbon emission caps and a national service corps. It's spiritual warfare."
Pretty thought provoking stuff - I love it.
