Together for Adoption

The "Calling for Truth" radio program has an interesting recent broadcast on adoption, covering the spectrum from the theological doctrine of adoption to the practical practice of family adoption. On the doctrinal end, the show features an interview with Joel Beeke on his new book, Heirs With Christ: The Puritans on Adoption in which he argues, contra J. I. Packer, that the Puritans did, in fact, address and affirm the doctrine of adoption. Russell Moore, of SBTS, bridges the theological and practical, discussing how his adoption of two boys from Russia impacted his understanding of the Biblical doctrine of adoption. It also mentions a new ministry and website that combines Reformed theology with a passion for adoption, named, no less, "Together for Adoption."
