Dr. Bob Griffith, lead pastor of Christ Chapel in Woodbridge, Virginia, tells his family’s incredible story in the book “Fostering Jesus: Answering the Call to Foster Care in the Home and Church.”
Like many, at one point Griffith didn’t know a great deal about foster care. But he asked a question years ago while serving as a pastor in the Kenosha, Wisconsin, area, that changed everything.
“I went to the county officials that were there and I just simply asked them, ‘If you could wave a magic wand and you could ask the church or rally the church in your area to do one thing, what would that one thing be?’” he recently told CBN News.
Their response? They needed help serving the foster care system. This reaction left Griffith thinking and pondering how his church could step in to assist. So, he went home, spoke with his wife, and decided, as a family, to start fostering kids. At the same time, he looped in his church.
