{"product_id":"9781936908783","title":"A Hope Deferred: Adoption and the Fatherhood of God","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe use the word adoption very casually today-we speak of adopting pets, books, and highways. Yet the word has a far nobler significance. Adoption is the permanent placement of a child in a family with all its rights and privileges. God has forever placed us in his family. He has forever made us his children. He has forever changed our legal status. A Hope Deferred probes the depths of this wonderful reality and intertwines these blessings with an account of one family's journey to international adoption. The result is a valuable glimpse into the essential relationship between adoption, affliction, and the fatherhood of God over his people.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shepherd Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47051647647984,"sku":"9781936908783","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781936908783","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
