Redeeming Ruth

Publisher Description

:<p><i>Redeeming Ruth</i> is the inspirational, true story of an abandoned baby, a devastating diagnosis, and the way God loves broken, hurting people through us-even though we may be broken and hurt, too.</p>

<p>When Meadow met her, Ruth was a sixteen-month-old child that some church friends were hosting from an orphanage in Uganda. She had cerebral palsy and was so weak she couldn't lift her head. Meadow had always felt a call to adopt, but was this what God meant? Part family drama, part travel adventure, and part memoir, <i>Redeeming Ruth</i> is a heartwarming, against-all-odds story about the most unlikely pairing of a a typical American family and a physically challenged orphaned girl from Uganda. Much more than an adoption story, this book explores what happens when we sacrificially reach out and share God's love with others.</p> <p>Ruth's story will inspire families considering adoption, people raising or teaching children with special needs, caregivers, and those grieving the loss of a loved one, ministering to people with disabilities, or striving to serve God despite their own wounded hearts and broken dreams.</p> <p><b>Features:</b> <br>• Includes a Reader's Guide at the end of the book for each chapter for group discussion or personal rejection. <br>• An eight-page insert with personal photos will be included. <br>• All personal proceeds from this book benefit orphans and people with disabilities in Uganda.</p>
