Publisher's Description:

We use the word adoption very casually today—we speak of adopting pets, books, and highways. Yet the word has a far nobler significance.

Adoption is the permanent placement of a child in a family with all its rights and privileges. God has forever placed us in his family. He has forever made us his children. He has forever changed our legal status. A Hope Deferred probes the depths of this wonderful reality and intertwines these blessings with an account of one family’s journey to international adoption. The result is a valuable glimpse into the essential relationship between adoption, affliction, and the fatherhood of God over his people.

About the Author

J. Stephen Yuille (PhD, London School of Theology) lives in Peterborough, Ontario, with his wife, Alison, and daughter, Laura. He is the preaching elder at Braidwood Bible Chapel. He is also a part–time Professor of Biblical Studies with Toronto Baptist Seminary.
