Adoption: What Joseph of Nazareth Can Teach Us about This Countercultural Choice

The Bible depicts Joseph of Nazareth as a good and honorable man. The adoptive father of Jesus, he stood by his wife when it appeared that she had betrayed him. In doing so, Joseph provided all Christians with a beautiful picture of what fatherhood is meant to look like: steadfast, loving, protective. But such love stands in stark contrast to what we see in our world today: on-demand abortion, unreported abuse, and widespread neglect. Calling Christians to take a stand for children-born and unborn-this short booklet, adapted from Adopted for Life by Russell Moore, makes a passionate plea for Christians to view adoption as a way to value and protect every human life.
