Refuge Ranch: A Story For His Glory [Paperback]

Bonnie Walker (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 10, 2008

"This book is more than just a story about a family crazy enough to adopt 18 children. It is a pilgrimage of one's life, my life, my spiritual journey. We do not focus on the negatives, nor do we want you to focus on those things. But neither do we want to give a false impression of being the perfect family. We're not! We are just a family who loves the Lord. We believe that the negative things in life get far too much attention, so we choose to focus on the positive aspects like God's love, healing, and restoration. God's glory is our heart's motive for this story being told." - Bonnie Walker

About the Author

To Bonnie Walker, it was a dream birthed in the heart of a little country girl from Georgia. Her burning desire was to raise a big happy family of her own. But no one guessed just how big, how unique, and how far-reaching that family would be. She married her childhood sweetheart and gave birth to three beautiful daughters. She was happy and eager for more blessings when the dark storm clouds of life rolled in: four miscarriages followed, unending surgeries, no more biological babies. Her God-given vision suddenly seemed to have been mercifully ripped from her. But God's plan wasn't thwarted! Her barren womb wasn't an obstacle. Instead, it became a vehicle that introduced her to the desperate, the broken and the helpless. After God's gentle nudging, she adopted little ones that nobody wanted, children who had been abused, abandoned and neglected. With open arms, she and her husband embraced not just one, but eighteen children who needed a refuge, a permanent home. They both created REFUGE RANCH and this is their story of what God can use average, faithful Christians to do for His Glory!

5.0 out of 5 stars REFUGE RANCH: A STORY FOR HIS GLORY, November 7, 2008

This review is from: Refuge Ranch: A Story For His Glory (Paperback)

This is an absolutely beautiful book about the faithfulness and love of a Christian couple in deep South Georgia who have taken 18 children into their home and have raised them by the grace of God. It will bless your heart to read these stories of how God's hand led the couple to each adoption and supplied visions often before they occured. I highly recommend this book!
