Tricia Goyer is a busy mom of ten, grandmother of two, and wife to her husband John. She shares her family’s story about adopting seven children ranging in age from 2 to 16 after her three biological children were older.  

In and around the hustle and bustle of family life, homeschooling, and therapy, she also manages to find the time to write fictional tales delighting and entertaining readers and non-fiction titles offering encouragement and hope.

“Maybe we’re not all called to adopt, but Jesus calls us to care for widows and orphans in some way --  that might look like helping other adoptive families or foster families.”
