4 people. 4 adoption stories. November is Adoption Awareness Month. Listen to James, Sam, Dave C, and Steve share their adoption stories on this episode of HopeNet Radio.

As an outsider, I’m guilty of thinking that the adoption process is usually smooth and that, as long as you go through a good adoption agency, you have a 99% adoption success rate. The reality is much different as we learn on the show tonight. It’s messy. It’s sometimes disappointing. You question the choice to adopt. People don’t really understand the challenges. It can be a lonely season in life. Thankfully, these 4 guys have great insight to share and ways they overcame the doubts and fears. Ultimately, they saw God work first-hand in their lives.
