While the growing orphan care movement has been reduced to a focus on adoption, something few people can do, Johnny Carr shows readers how every Christian should play an active role in caring for orphans.
Indeed, caring for the orphan requires us to care about related issues from child trafficking and HIV/AIDS to racism and poverty. Too often, we only discuss or theologize the issues, relegating the responsibility to governments. No one can do everything, but everyone can do something; Christians are clearly called to care for orphans, a group so close to the heart of Jesus.
Based on his own personal journey toward pure religion, Johnny Carr moves readers from talking about global orphan care to actually doing something about it in Orphan Justice. Combining biblical truth with the latest research, this inspiring book:
- Uses Johnny's personal story to help you understand complex social justice issues
- Tells you about the orphan care and adoption movement in the U.S. today
- Helps you understand the connection between social justice issues and biblically based orphan care
- Discusses the role of the church worldwide in meeting the needs of orphaned and vulnerable children
- Offers YOU practical steps to getting involved and making a difference today
