# Episode 65: Foster Families and Opening Your Home

If you had asked Brandon as a teenager how many children he planned to have, his answer would have been a definite zero.

Today, he has eight children, four of whom he and his wife fostered and then adopted.What does the Bible teach us about caring for the fatherless and opening our homes to others?

In this episode, we discuss how the gospel transforms our view of children, parenting, hospitality, fostering, and adoption—and how fathers should view both the creation mandate and the Great Commission.
