Adopting the Father's Heart is a vulnerable and challenging look into God's call to orphan care through one couple's experience with adoption. Kenneth and Danielle were on a path to return overseas as missionaries when God redirected them--at least, temporarily. Both felt God leading them to foster children with the possibility of adopting. How did they start the process? What were the challenges and the rewards? Their story informs, convicts, and inspires others to care for the orphans in our communities. "As a pastor who is trying to lead my church into ministry in the foster/adopt world, I am thrilled to have Kenny Camp's book "Adopting the Father's Heart" as a resource...I'll make it required reading for both staff and volunteers who work in our foster/adopt ministry." Dr. Will Davis Jr., Senior Pastor, Austin Christian Fellowship

"Filled with uncertainty and triumph, this book will encourage you to consider those overlooked in our society. With its practical advice and heart-stirring truths, I strongly recommend this book..." Lance Bane, Senior Associate Pastor, Church of the Hills

"Adopting the Father's Heart is an essential read not only for families wanting to foster children, but for anyone who knows a family fostering children...this book will compel you to re-evaluate your priorities so that you will be more focused on others and how you can change lives each and every day." Kelly Gottschalk, Preschool Pastor, The Church at Canyon Creek

This interdisciplinary study introduces readers to Friedrich Schleiermacher's diverse pathways of reflection and creative practice that are related to the field of translation. By drawing attention to Schleiermacher's various writings on a range of subjects (including philology, criticism, hermeneutics, dialectics, rhetoric and religion), the author makes it clear that the frequently cited lecture UEber die verschiedenen Methoden des UEbersetzens (On the Different Methods of Translating) represents but a fraction of Schleiermacher's contributions to modern-day insights into translation. The analysis of Schleiermacher's various pathways of reflection on translation presented in this book leads to the conclusion that translation is part of the essence of the world, as it is a fundamental tool of our cognition and a foundation of our existence. In Schleiermacher's works, transfer, translation, mediation, and communication underpin our very existence in the world and our self-awareness. At the same time, they represent fundamental categories for a project that focuses on the consolidation and assimilation - through translation - of that which is foreign, different, diverse.

When Alfred Schwab was given the opportunity to meet a "contact"-an incorporeal entity who had been communicating with someone Alfred barely knew-he was skeptical, to say the least. But his curiosity and open mind encouraged him to at least explore the possibility.Orifi, a non-physical being with a special affection for humans, was willing and able to share his insights from beyond our understanding. Over the course of many years, he and Alfred shared countless conversations filled with humor and earthly give-and-take. Orifi shared generously about our reality, fate, free will, health, love, religion, and our physical world-past, present, and future. When Alfred was faced with unimaginable tragedy in the death of his child, he turned to Orifi for guidance and hope. And what Orifi shared allowed the grieving father to view his life experiences in a new and optimistic way. "You are never alone," Orifi promised his friend, and that sentiment rings through Alfred's story and words.
