You Gotta Believe!
Would like to wish you and your loved ones a Happy Holiday. During the Holiday season we would like to remind you that our radio broadcast will continue to air. You can listen to our December 17, 2006 broadcast if you missed it. We will broadcast the show again on Sunday December 24, and Sunday December 31, 2006. This is a great show that featured two special guest.
The first half hour we interviewed Richard Paul Evans the author of the book on the New York Times Best Sellers list entitled "Finding Noel" This is a unique Christmas story that includes a lot of important issues.
The first issue is a "bad" adoption: An adoption of a seven year old that went bad. The adoption happened for all the wrong reasons.
The second issue is that of the parentified sibling being separated from her younger sister for no other reason than she loved and cared for her all their young lives. They were 7 and 4 when they were separated.
The third issue is the importance of being adopted even when you are an adult when you get adopted.
The fourth issue is Late Discovery Adoption -- two adults in the story didn't learn about their adoptions until they were adults.
And the fifth issue is search and reunion: the desire to find one's biological roots and the need to be reunited with not only birth parents but birth siblings as well.
Hence the title of the book "Finding Noel." Mr. Evans was with us for the first half hour. He had also wrote many other novels and books and perhaps his most well known novel is "The Christmas Box" a book that was #1 on the New York Times bestsellers list and sold over 11 million copies and was published in 22 different languages.
The second half of the radio show examined the issue of spirituality as a post adoption support to families. Rev. Bart Fletcher, who happens to be a United Methodist Minister in Minnesota, spoke about the spirituality of adoptive parenting particularly during the hard times. The Rev. Bart and his wife Claudia have adopted 10 special needs and older children. Christmas time is a very difficult time for traumatized and abused children. Bart shares some inspiring perspectives about the role of spirituality during a family's most challenging times coming at it from the perspective as both a spiritual being and clergyman and an adoptive father.
So if you are not doing anything between the hours of 8-9pm Eastern time on Christmas or New Year's eve, please listen in to this wonderful program."
