Article: On Adoption, Christians Should Put Up or Shut Up


Not a fan so much of the title, but the content of this article is excellent :)

by Jason Locy

Excerpt . . . "If a Christian group wants to wade into the discussion over who should adopt, it needs to put its money and manpower where its mouth is. That means not only challenging families and churches to adopt from foster care (which costs virtually nothing financially) but also to adopt children resulting from unplanned pregnancies, children with special needs and children of mixed race or minority ethnicity."

The article also features an Christian initiative begun in the state of Colorado in 2008 called Wait No More that has reduced the number of orphans in the state by half! It has since expanded to include 8 states.
