“Through transparent sharing, the author reveals the startling, costly, yet rewarding realities of fostering hurting children. No minced words or pious platitudes. No guilt-ridden pleas that “all are called.” Instead, a moment-by-moment dependence on the Lord through prayer is key to enabling a parent to go from strength to strength. Indeed, a much-needed resource for potential foster parents as well as a comfort for struggling parents. Highly recommended for DCS workers, social workers, and adoption agencies also.”—Sherrie Eldridge, author, 20 Things Adopted Kids Wish Book Series

“Faith and Foster Care was a real “shot in the arm” for me as I read it and reflected on my years as a foster parent. Reading so many real-life antidotes from others who shared so many of the same experiences aa my family did was validation of our work, commitment and the role our faith played in everything we did as foster parents. This is a must read book for foster parents and other caregivers. It is honest about the challenges of fostering while speaks eloquently to the blessings it is to the foster parents, the children and the birth parents of the children receiving foster care services. Job well done, Dr. DeGarmo, job well done.”—Irene Clements, executive director, National Foster Parent Association
