    About this ebook

    KnowOrphans, a provocative follow-up to the popular Orphanology, explores three distinct areas of global orphanology. Delving deep into criticisms of the transnational movement, the book helps shape realistic and comprehensive expectations for transnational adoptive families. KnowOrphans identifies the need for reform and offers the church solutions for remedying the ills and deficiencies surrounding its role in equipping and supporting families. The complexities of how Christians are to respond ethically, compassionately, and comprehensively to the biblical call to care for orphans are also addressed.
