***

God loves kids, and his really good plan is for kids to grow up in loving families with everything they need to be safe, happy, and whole. But the brokenness in the world has caused really big problems in some families. Because God loves these families, he provides people to help them, as well as foster families to welcome the kids who need safe and loving homes. How can we help young kids--kids in foster families, kids in foster care, or kids simply learning--to understand foster care in a gentle and biblical way?

Beautifully illustrated, God Loves Kids is a trauma-informed, gospel-centered children's picture book designed to help you navigate difficult conversations about foster care with kids. Beginning with God's initial plan for kids and families, the story introduces, with compassion and sensitivity, the challenges that bring about the need for foster care, what it looks like for foster families to show up for kids, and the different feelings everyone involved in foster care may experience. The book ends where it begins, with the promise that God has a good plan for the kids he loves.

This unique resource helps children understand foster care and how they can trust God and his good plan to redeem every single story.
