The Bible is clear that taking care of widows and orphans is a top priority if we intend to boldly follow Jesus.  But if we're being honest, for many of us, foster care rarely crosses our minds.  We can get so busy with our day-to-day activities that we have the tendency to never look beyond our regular circles to ask the question of "What would Jesus do?".  On today's episode,...
