Nate Cole (plus ONE), Chanel Haynes (Trin-i-Tee 5:7), Leigh Nash (Sixpence None The Richer), Crystal Lewis, Derek Webb and more team up to tell their truth, according to a teaser trailer for the upcoming independent film “Safe for the Whole Family: How to Make a Christian Superstar.”
Michelle Shocklee: The theme of my new novel Appalachian Song is “I choose you,” with adoption at the heart of the story. Recent statistics show there are over 100,000 children in the US foster care system at any given time. Their ages range from newborn to seventeen years, with the older ones on the verge of aging out of the system, leaving many of them homeless. Some of these children will return to their birth families, but the vast majority need a permanent home.
A forever family.
That’s where the beauty of adoption comes in.
