"Reimagining Adoption" examines beliefs, practices, and Scripture to distill adoption policy steeped in Christian values and attuned to the needs of vulnerable children and their families. It examines the historical practices, reviews current practices and proposes revisions. More importantly, it lifts up the words of adult adoptees--the true experts on adoption--and braids them with the insights of adoptive families to craft a new adoption paradigm. Readers will learn:

     How to become better Christian parents and more supportive faith communities

     How to answer tough questions and to anticipate who will pose them and why

     How to clarify Christian adoption beliefs and practices

     What makes adoptees the true adoption experts

     How to process the pain of birth parent loss

     How to validate adoptee grief and loss

     How to support family preservation

     How the radical love of Christ must reshape the way we approach adoption

     What first-hand adoptee/adoptive family accounts can teach us about faith and adoption

     How to serve vulnerable children and their families with faith, love, and understanding
