The Journey of a Family Striving to Live Dangerously Surrendered!


"Surrendering means that we have come to the end of our independence from him, our reliance on self-sufficiency, and our insistence that we don’t need him. Surrender to God changes everything! Why add the word dangerous to surrender? Because we don’t surrender to a benevolent but impotent grandfatherly figure; we surrender to Almighty God —the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. C. S. Lewis’s character Aslan in the Chronicles of Narnia depicts God as a magnificent lion —good, but certainly not safe. Surrendering your life to God is the boldest and riskiest step you can take. Being dangerously surrendered to God allows you to know him in increasingly deeper ways and to participate fully in his will. " ~Kay Warren

Adoption Miscarriage...

Often in the adoption world, you experience loss.. We have lost the referral of this precious baby girl. The details of why are policy related and regarding us adopting two children at the same time who are unrelated. The news hit hard and broke our hearts. We know this baby will receive a wonderful family and we will always pray for her, but we won't be her parents.

Please pray now that we are able to get Joshua home quickly. We need to hear of a court date this week.

We love you all...thank you for your support and prayers.

Kurt and JoLynn
