Major League Dad

The book walked us through what we were praying for after we were married. CHILDREN. We have one son who we adopted from Romania almost 3 years ago and this book has made us review of how we can love and care for more children. Would love to email Tim or Christine and speak with them about adoption etc...Thanks! George and Darlene Watson

Marriage, Priorities, Evangelism, Special Needs Children

Tim, an All Star Pitcher, retires early to dedicate his time to his wife Christine and his growing family of special needs adopted children. I was really moved by this back and forth conversation between Tim and Christine. You'll want to give this to anyone considering Christianity. The Burkes chronicle their spiritual journey with wonderful transparency until they trust Christ when their marriage was in trouble. Any couple would benefit from their hard learned lessons. I loved it!
