Written by Mike Berry

Narrated by Lloyd James

Know That You Are Not Alone on This JourneyAdopting or fostering a child brings its own unique set of challenges only another parent facing the same uphill climb could possibly understand. From parenting children with traumatic pasts, to dealing with attachment issues, to raising a children with special needs, it can sometimes be a struggle just getting through the day. Mike Berry knows the loneliness and isolation you can easily feel in your particular parenting role-because he's been there. He's still there, and he wants to give you the hope and encouragement you so desperately need. There are plenty of how-to guides out there on parenting, but this one-of-a-kind book is specifically designed to address your needs as a parent of an adopted or foster child. With a refreshing dose of honesty, empathy, and care, you'll discover you are definitely not alone on your journey and God has a very special plan for you and your family.

Reviews for Confessions of an Adoptive Parent

[Gill Halley · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

I feel like I've just sat through a 5 hour sermon which was incredibly off-putting. The content about adoption and fostering seems to be genuine and hard to hear.

The book was beautifully written with simple truths I needed to hear. Thanks to Mile Berry for sharing his heart and his family’s life! I am NOT alone! The narration was also amazing. I felt like I was listening to Mr. Berry himself.
