Post-Adoption Support for Christian Families You've done it! After months or even years of prayers, dreams and effort your child is finally home. Now it's time for happily ever after. And yet the days and months ahead will quite likely stretch you in ways you weren't expecting. Using Scripture and stories of her own adopted children, Michelle Gardner helps you anticipate these challenges and gives you tools to help you cope. In your adoption journey, how can the Lord be most glorified? It may be through a path you would never have chosen. Michelle asks you to consider what God can do to work in your life, your child's life, and the lives of everyone watching to bring glory to Himself. After the Dream Comes True explores: - Emotions that might surprise you - Why you got involved with adoption - First days at home - Setting boundaries and establishing routines - Birthparent issues - Spiritual issues - If the dream turns into a nightmare - Ready to adopt again? - and many other important topics As families lovingly and obediently welcome adopted children into their hearts and homes, there are many issues with which they need to deal. After the Dream Comes True helps families consider these issues from a scriptural perspective and challenges families to see adoption as an opportunity to learn to trust and obey.

Great Book!,

This review is from: After the Dream Comes True (Paperback)
This book is an excellent read for those considering adoption. The writing flows and is easy to follow. It is one of those books that is not easily put down. The author draws the reader in and allows the reader to experience a lot of the emotions integral with adoption. The author is an excellent story teller.Most of the books on adoption seem to try to talk the reader out of their desire to pursue adoption. This book provides the reality of adoption without being negative. It is very encouraging. If you are a Christian, you will especially be able to relate to the stories told. If you are not a Christian, I would get the book any way. The information is still very helpful. The bottom line: If you are seriously considering adoption - you should get this book. You will not be sorry.
