One vibrant indicator of the growing orphan care movement are the quality regional conferences across the US that inspire and train for adoption, foster care and global ministry.  One that looks especially compelling in early 2014 is the East Texas Family Conference on Saturday, February 1 at Green Acres Baptist Church in Tyler, TX.  While focused on the region of east Texas, it will draw from some of the best speakers nationwide, including Dr. Russell Moore,  Dr. Karen Purvis and more.   It’s also offered in tandem with a concert from our favorite adoptive-dad-musician, Steven Curtis Chapman.  Learn more about the conference and register HERE.
