Orphanology (written by Tony Merida & our very own Rick Morton) unveils the grassroots movement that’s engaged in a comprehensive response to serve hundreds of millions of orphans and “functionally fatherless” children. In this book, you will see a breadth of ways to care with biblical perspective and reasons why we must. The book empowers:- churches—to plan preaching, teaching, ministering, missions, funding adoption, supporting orphans;- individuals and families—to overcome challenges and uncertainties;- every believer—to gain insights to help orphans in numerous ways. Discover how to – adopt;- assist orphans in transition;- engage in foster care;- partner with faith-based fostering agencies;- become orphan hosts. Along with their families’ adoption stories, Merida and Morton give steps for action and features on churches doing orphan ministry, faith-based children’s homes, orphan-hosting groups, and other resources.
