I am thrilled to introduce you to Kristin Allender, director of the Tennessee Chapter of America’s Kids Belong.  This is an organization dedicated to advocating and finding forever homes for foster children in Tennessee.  James 1:27 calls us as Christians to care for orphans and widows, we may not all be called to foster or adopt but we simply can’t turn a blind eye to their needs.  Kristin herself was adopted as an infant, and she has followed the call on her life to work with vulnerable children, I love her heart and her story.

This episode is important and the work Kristin and this organization is making a life changing difference for these children.  Imagine your own children without a safe place to call home or someone to care for them when they are scared or sick, it is unthinkable.  This episode will challenge you, as well as give you some ways to get involved.  There are so many ways we can help, check out the links below to get more information and be sure to follow them on social media to stay informed.
