Adopted for Life: The Priority of Adoption for Christian Families and Churches

9781581349115

In the recently released Adopted for Life, Moore expounds the theological truths of adoption, calling churches and believers to see the ministry of adoption as more than a charity or a metaphor, but an essential priority in reaching the world for Christ. This book is a call to action and a plea for Christians to be at the forefront of the adoption of orphans in North America and around the world.

Tim Challies writes:

When watching sports you sometimes hear a coach tell his players to “leave it all on the field (or on the court or on the diamond).” This coach expects his players to give it their best effort, to walk into the locker room at the end of the day knowing that they could not have done any better. And I really felt this is what Moore did here; I felt like he put a lot of himself into this book, that it took a lot out of him to write it, and that it really does represent a passionate effort on his part. And it shows. The book perfectly combines the theological foundation with the practical outworking of that theology. It has wisdom for the adopter, the adopted and the families, friends and churches of both. It is undoubtedly one of the best books I’ve read this year. I hope you’ll consider reading it too.
