Reverse Adoption

You can't choose your family . . . or can you?

Last week ABC News reported that 40-year old Jenna MacFarlane has adopted new parents.  Feeling estranged from her own family, MacFarlane took out a personal ad that began "Single white female seeking family."  She received nearly a hundred replies and eventually decided to "adopt" Karen and Steve Kesler. 

In moments of weakness and frustration, many Christians have wondered whether it might be possible to have a new church family.
