The Broken Masterpiece: Adoption Perspectives

By Scot Bowlsby and Noah With

We wanted to write a book about our experience of being adopted. Through the process of writing this book, we learned that we are all adopted in Christ. Christ makes something broken into something beautiful. We're all on a journey trying to find our way, but more importantly, we are trying to find hope in Jesus.This book is to help parents and kids that are adopted or struggle with adoption. In this book, there are two different perspectives: open case adoptions and closed case adoptions. We also cover topics adopted children deal with including fears, forgiveness, compassion, and God's faithfulness. We also answer questions and issues to consider when adopting. Noah: I have three siblings, my adopted Mom, and my Dad. I currently live in Duluth, Minnesota and am completing a church internship. I graduated from Urbandale High School, Urbandale, Iowa in 2019. I love sports and connecting with other young people. I have participated in football, tennis, and baseball over the years. My favorite vacation was in Colorado where we hiked in the mountains.Scot: I graduated from Urbandale High School in Urbandale, Iowa in 1978. I was in the Air Force active duty and the Iowa Army National Guard part-time. I worked in counseling, the mortgage industry, and the insurance industry. I am currently retired. I volunteer 2-3 days a week at a prevention company that deals with kids. I also volunteer at my church. Even though my boys are adults, I still talk to them weekly.
