From authors and speakers, Steven and Courtney Cohen, this companion Guide for Loved As You Are is designed for parents, teachers, counselors, family, and friends of children who have been adopted from hard places. This guide is designed to help give common language, empathy, compassion, and understanding for adopted or adoptive children, while equipping the reader with questions, background information of the illustrations, a scavenger hunt on every page, as well as ways to challenge the readers own precepts, beliefs, and understandings. Join Gif, the giraffe, on his perilous and providential journey to find his forever home - to discover what it means to be loved as you are. Family comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors. Adoption through foster care is one wonderful path a family can walk to come together. Even the storms and steep mountains of life your child has faced are part of the larger, colorful portrait God is painting of their life. Though God may not have brought the challenges their way, He can always make use of them for your child's good. Gif the giraffe, pronounced Jif, was first painted on our nursery room wall as we prepared for our first adopted daughter. He gained his name almost three years later when she would say goodnight to the animals and she called him peanut butter. Like that creamy substance on the roof of your mouth, the name just stuck. In Loved As You Are we are invited into Gif's journey of adoption through foster care. For kiddos who experience these unimaginable challenges and hardships it can become hard to see God's love for them or His bigger picture, sometimes making them feel hopeless or unloveable. But as we travel through this journey we find that not only is God with us in the most difficult of times, but He redeems them to be a part of His beautiful portrait and our testimony. Loved As You Are is also available on BookBaby.com
Autorenporträt
Steve Cohen, former atheistic anti-Christ was hellbent on living for himself and ripping Christians' faith apart, until he met the God who loved him regardless of his faults. Now that same God that Steve railed against is the God he loves and serves. Steve is driven by two things, seeking what God says in every moment and doing what the Holy Spirit empowers us to do (especially loving others in the midst of our messes). These are the catalysts that drive Steve to be a catalyst of others to do the same.Author of multiple books, including What Lies Beneath, Loved As You Are, and However Long Forever, Steve passionately guides, challenges, and inspires people to reorient themselves to God and take responsibility for their relationship with Him and the people around them. Co-founder of Now Found, along with his wife, Steve utilizes workshops, videos, blogging, and books to remind us that we are all, like he was, Never Too Lost To Be Found. Steve is married to Courtney, his anchor and stabilizer, who challenges him to stay the course. Steve finds refreshing in the outdoors, hiking, camping (not glamping), swimming, and sitting under the stars he once worshipped (now worshipping their Creator). Living in Texas, Steve and Courtney lead a house church and have three children who are all beautifully unique and remind him that God truly does hear our prayers and cares about us as His children.
