Behind the Scenes of Foster Care: DJ Noble on Faith, Family & Embracing the Journey
Description
Today, I’m joined by the incredible DJ Noble, a former radio host, teacher, and long-time foster parent with a powerful 15-year journey that spans across Virginia and Kansas. In this episode, we’re talking about the REAL side of foster care—the emotions, the relationships, the red tape, and the redemption.
Together, we unpack:
✨ What it’s like navigating two different state systems
✨ How to honor and embrace biological families
✨ The impact fostering can have on your own bio kids
✨ Practical advice for navigating relationships, grief, and growth
DJ brings so much wisdom—not just from his professional background in sociology, urban affairs, and theology—but from living this life every single day. With his wife, Sanna, they’ve raised two biological sons and fostered dozens more. Right now? They’ve got three boys in their home and are still showing up with heart, humor, and purpose.
This conversation is full of real talk, practical insight, and encouragement for anyone currently fostering or considering the call.
Listen now to hear how DJ balances faith, family, and fostering—and why the way we view biological families could change everything.
