Foster the Family {Episode-150 with Jamie C. Finn}

Foster the Family, with Jamie C. Finn

Foster parenting basics, supporting friends who Foster, and all the rest!

Jamie Finn is one of my new most inspirational friends.  Whether you are a foster parent, are considering foster-parenting, or just want to know how to support those amazing people who are, this conversation is so good!

After reading Jamie’s book, Foster the Family, I was so inspired to learn more. In today’s conversation we cover Jamie’s story of becoming a foster parent and starting a super creative and brilliant ministry. I ask some total beginner questions, and Jamie so humbly answers! She is so real and honest, and so much fun. Please share this episode with your friends because we can all play a role in supporting children and families in need, and I think Jamie has some great ideas on how we might do that well.
