Adoption: Home Where You Belong: Catholic for a Reason IV
Author: Jeff Cavins

Publisher: Emmaus Road Publishing
Release Date: 2007-06-01
Having adopted two girls, Jeff and Emily Cavins share the deepening of their understanding of love and family life through the blessing of adoption. As Catholics, we often hear about being “adopted sons and daughters of the Father”, but do we put this into practice in our daily lives? The Cavinses show how they were changed and blessed by bringing home their two adopted daughters, and challenge others to see the beauty of adoption and recognize the profound theological meaning it manifests. In their own words, “Adoption changes our whole understanding of God as we come face to face with His love for us … Through adoption we have come to understand it is more blessed to give than to receive.”

Release Date: 2018-02-19
Beginning with infertility and one couple’s struggle with building their family, Stretch-mark My Heart dives headlong into the fragmented world of the US foster care system. Following the adoption journey of Matt and Niki Tschirgi (pronounced Sure-Gee), this book lays the groundwork from start to finish regarding what it takes to have a child permanently placed in your home for adoption. Through fostering, private adoption, open adoption, and foster-to-adopt, Niki recounts the lonely and grievous road of infertility, her and her husband’s decision-making process to choose adoption, the hard work and perseverance to get licensed to be foster parents, and the finalization of six adoptions. Discover how the Tschirgis became a blended family over the course of six years and doubled their family size while moving from Washington to Texas. Stretch-mark My Heart will immerse you in the complicated process of accepting and loving into your home children who were born out of trauma, abuse, and neglect. See how each child was uniquely meant to be a part of this family. Travel along this bumpy yet inspiring road and explore many facets of adoption, including sibling-group, multiracial, infant, and older-child adoption. Although heartbreak, trials, and the unknown are present throughout this book, triumph, miracles, unconditional love, and belonging overshadow the pain and loss of infertility, as well as the brokenness inherent in being a child in foster care. Stretch-mark My Heart will help you understand the intricate and detailed plan that God had for a family to be built together by the power of choice… the choice of adoption.
Adoption Reimagined

For centuries, Christian theology has inherited interpretations that miss the pulse of the apostolic witness. Among the most misunderstood is Pauline huiothesía—commonly translated as “adoption.” In this bold and provocative work, the author challenges that rendering, unveiling instead a vision of mature sonship (huio-ship) rooted in Pauline spirituality, existential authenticity, and pneumatic transformation. Drawing on biblical exegesis, historical theology, and existential thought, this book journeys from the shadows of inherited tradition to the reality of the text itself. It is not merely a correction of language but a call to recover the divine logic of salvation. For theologians, biblical scholars, and seekers of truth, this is more than a scholarly intervention—it is a challenge to inherited theology.
