Together for Adoption

A series of simple actions can make a world of difference.

The Together for Adoption 2014 conference theme was “Urgency & Complexity: Biblical & Ethical Approaches to the Orphan Crisis,” centered around engaging with just how complex orphan care has become as a global issue.

It’s time for simplicity. The reality is that, even though orphan care and adoption are tough and complex at times, people all over the world are discovering simple steps that can lead to truly transformative solutions.

Especially in a time like ours, complexity can lead to discouragement and even to analysis-paralysis.

We need simple.

When facing the complexity of the global orphan care crisis, what we really need is a scale of orphan care that’s approachable, that’s solvable. We want powerful ideas and effective solutions that are especially beautiful because they are simple. Big problems are generally solved by a series of small, actionable solutions.

Please join J.D. Greear, Tony Merida, Brandon Hatmaker, Susan Heath Hays, Dr. Sharen Ford, John Sowers, and Johnny Carr (as well as others they'll announce soon) for T4A's 2015 conference to be held November 5-7 (Thursday evening through Saturday Noon) at 8,000 member Summit Church in Durham, North Carolina. As always, you can expect their commitment to creating the kinds of spaces where you can enjoy conversations among friends about issues and actions that matter. This year, you can also expect even more elegant simplicity.
