In this episode Ann talks with Nicole Martin, Head of Foster Care, Adoption & Family Support at Anglicare, as well and two current foster mums: Robyn and Kate. Together they share a compelling vision of how churches and Christian families can show the love of God to some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Ann asked our guests a number of questions including:

- Why do some children need to enter foster care? 
- What is the relationship like between foster parents and birth parents?
- How has fostering impacted your own biological children?
- What are the different types of foster care?
- How can churches work together to support foster kids and their families?
- Are you allowed to share your faith with your foster children?
- Do you need special qualities to be a good foster carer?
- What training and support is available for foster carers?

This conversation will help you to see that supporting foster care is something that all Christians can do - in some surprisingly simple ways. Together, we can help vulnerable children to experience the love of God through the practical care of his people.
