Adopted Twice

By Mary Haney Underwood

"Your real parents thought you were so ugly they put you in a basket and left you on a doorstep."

With those words, the damage was done. Mary Haney Underwood, an adoptee, shares how the lies she believed about rejection, identity, and belonging festered in her life-and how those lies were replaced by truth.

Through her own story, she shares how the adoption narrative can change from victimhood to victory through a second adoption: a spiritual adoption into God's family.

Adopted Twice is a candid portrayal and exploration of the emotional and psychological struggles caused by the complexities of adoption. Underwood encourages adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents that hope and healing are possible when their identities are restored by the redemption of Christ.
