In this episode, I talk to my friend, David Salas, a French-born believer now raising a family in Texas. Listen as he recounts his journey from a homeschooled kid in secular France, to a foster dad who opened his home the day after certification. Discover raw stories of growing up in a culture that labels evangelicalism a “cult,” meeting his wife on mission in Mexico, and the 11 p.m. call that brought a 6-month-old in only a onesie (now their adopted daughter). Hear how they got into fostering plus honest advice on sprinting vs. marathoning in ministry, why “everybody can do something” for orphans, and the joy of seeing God turn brokenness into light. A must-listen for anyone inspired by cross-cultural faith, foster care, pro-life action, and God’s relentless grace!
