Summary

Author, wife and mama Tori Hope Petersen joins Blake to talk about how she overcame every negative stereotype and assumption that attacked her identity after growing up in the foster care system; only because of Christ. In her book, she shares how Jesus made a way to find profound hope, deep faith, renewed purpose, and a loving family, too. Listen in as they talk about changing the conversation surrounding foster care, specifically in the Church, and what God can do through the most unlikely of people.
