93 – International Adoption Support: How to Prepare for Your Journey with Dr. Rick Morton
from ADOPTION STRUGGLES AND SUPPORT | Adoption Trauma, Safety, Peace of Mind, Biblical Encouragement, Respite, Journaling · host Tim Maudlin
I look at my kids and the things that they’ve had to adapt to in culture and learn language. It’s heroic to do what they’ve done. And so as a parent, I really felt our responsibility as parents is to step into that challenge and to just try to help them to negotiate that as much as we possibly can. Hi Neighbor, Joining me in this episode is, Dr. Rick Morton. Rick is the Senior Vice President of Engagement at Lifeline Children’s Services, the largest evangelical Christian adoption agency in America. Rick is also an adoptive parent of 3 children, all of whom were adopted internationally. If you are considering international adoption, this is an episode you don’t want to miss. Grab a notebook and pen. Hope and healing are on the way. Your Neighbor, Tim Lifeline Children’s Services Online Learning Portal Orphanology: Awakening to Gospel-Centered Adoption and Orphan Care Disclaimer: As is the case with anyone that I bring on the show to talk to you, I encourage take notes and listen to the information.
