Session #6 // Josh + Amy Martin Resonate Sessions

Josh and Amy Martin in conversation with Host Brian Frye (Twitter @brifrye). They discuss their personal experience adopting their daughter, and the spiritual implications adoption has for the believer. Josh (Twitter: @joshmmartin) is the pastor of Resonate Pullman and author of the memoir, Saturday Nothing: The Words I Wrote While Waiting on Jesus. He was one of the original church-planters who started Resonate Church at its first location in Pullman Washington.

Josh and Amy adopted through CCAI, but would recommend several agencies and encourage listeners to look into their local foster care opportunities. For more information on adoption they recommend the following books and resources.
