What beautiful children!

What a privilege to bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Congrats!

This is an awesome witness- both to God's adoptive parenthood and to how his plans are so much better than ours.

Four beautiful children, what a blessing! Praise the Lord that you are all home safe and together!

Congratulations, Zach and family! I would have said so earlier on here, but the computer was down for a few days!

This is such a great portrait of both God's adoption of us, as Christians, and of the "every tongue, tribe, and nation" nature of the Gospel. Sadly, Zach, if you and Kim were actually *living* in Alabama and raising Mya there, you would probably get a LOT of stares and maybe even some unkind remarks (even from some professing Christians...). I know from my own experience of living there, from the '70s through the '90s, that racism is alive and well in that state, and elsewhere in parts of the Deep South. We must pray for the Gospel, with all of its implications of love, to take hold in the churches there, and in the surrounding culture!
