If you have been brave enough to be a foster or adoptive parent, then you will agree that it comes with a cost. Yet many of us continue to put ourselves back into the battle zones willingly because the children we love desperately need safety and compassion. This hurts and can extract parts of our soul when things get difficult.  It often can take years to recover and heal from these wounds. In this podcast, we are joined by Scott Nyegaard, who provided foster care and adopted, and he will share with us his insights into this experience. Scott will share with us how, in those tough moments, it is difficult to make sense of the scars and often we stop trying because the cost is too great. Fortunately, all wounds can heal, and years later we can see the beauty in receiving the scars and know that our love for the kids was critical to their lives.
