description:  While the growing orphan care movement has been reduced to a focus on adoption something few people can do Johnny Carr shows readers how every Christian should play an active role in caring for orphans.Indeed caring for the orphan requires us to care about related issues from child trafficking and HIV/AIDS to racism and poverty. Too often we only discuss or theologize the issues relegating the responsibility to governments. No one can do everything but everyone can do something; Christians are clearly called to care for orphans a group so close to the heart of Jesus.Based on his own personal journey toward pure religion Johnny Carr moves readers from talking about global orphan care to actually doing something about it in Found. Combining biblical truth with the latest social research this inspiring book:investigates the orphan care and adoption movement in the U.S. today; examines new data on the needs of orphans and at-risk children; connects liberal issues together as critical aspects or orphan care; discovers the role of the church worldwide in meeting these needs; develops a tangible sustainable action plan using worldwide partnerships; fleshes out the why what and how of global orphan care.
