- Jordan and Tammy Peterson sit down with the screenwriter and director behind “Sound of Hope: The Story of Possum Trot,” Joshua Weigel and the real life inspirations for the film, Bishop and Donna Martin. They discuss the presumption of understanding, parsing out falsehood from a message from God, how compassion spreads by giving, the miracle of adoption, and how the film came to be through hardship and grace.
Joshua Weigel is an award-winning filmmaker with a unique ability to create deeply moving stories that transform and inspire action. Josh began working closely with his wife, Rebekah, writing and producing award winning short films which he directed, culminating with what has become one of the most beloved short films of all-time, The Butterfly Circus, a viral phenomenon receiving over 100 million views, and garnering over 35 film festival awards, including the Clint Eastwood Filmmaker Award presented to Joshua by Clint Eastwood at the Carmel Film Festival.
Bishop and Donna Martin run the church of Possum Trot in East Texas, where they along with the families of the community have taken in seventy-seven children through adoption. Their story is one of struggle and triumph, compassion and resolve. It was brought to film and to the world through Angel Studios and the Daily Wire.
This episode was recorded on June 27, 2024

Bishop Martin is wearing a pastors collar, farmers overalls and a business man's suit coat. Absolutely perfect.
😂😅
He is all of them, he chose a perfect way to show it
That's wild, my papaw was a Deacon and he dressed similar to him. 😊
😂😂😂
As a child I was very aware my family had a lot less money than others in the community -- but I never knew what I was missing --
We adopted a 14 year old boy who spent 9.5 years in foster care.
He is an adult now and such an amazing person!
I was adopted as a child. All adopting parents are heroes in my book.
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother Dr Jordan 🙏
I grew up in foster care. I was never adopted. Only mistreated. This movie makes me cry tears of joy. Fervently, continually, praying, that God puts me in a position to be able to Bless His children as an adoptive parent, one day. Amen. God Bless you wonderful people. - Jewish war veteran/Retired Military
Praise God for the grace you have received to not be bitter and angry. I applaud you for cultivating the virtue of hope!
B"H! Shalom ❤
I'm so sorry the Jewish community wasn't there for you. We were very lucky to welcome a 17 year old into our home and see her marry the love of her life. At first, we were her Rabbi and Rebbetzin. Then she asked if she could call us Abba and Imma ❤
🙏🏾
The congrats😅😂
Adoption wasn't a man made idea, it was God's idea!! So good Bishop. Thank you for your words. We're so thankful for Bishop Martin and First Lady Donna. Thank you Lord for using them!
I'm a young man, just turned 25. I'm still trying to listen to God. I think I'm heading in the right direction now though, carpentry. I find a lot of joy in it and I believe that through God I can build my community and make the living space better for everyone. Praise be to Him

Jacob Prasch. Your welcome. Blessings in Jesus.
You’re doing great brother! Seek HIM! And you’re doing it! This is what it looks like
He really will speak to you. I know it sounds nuts, but you can actually have full conversations with God. He doesn't talk to me in an audible voice or anything like that, it just happens in my imagination. He has told me things that couldn't have come from just me. Seek his voice in undistracted silence. He will meet you there first, and as you learn to hear him better, you will be able to hear him even in loud places with lots of distractions.
If I may, I’ll chime in here as a response to your statement. Being young, and seeking God, can be a great place to BE in! There are untold thousands of people, many over 50, who “ go to church @, but never hear from God! Why? Many don’t open their Bibles until they get to church on Sunday morning. God gives us guidance, and wisdom, and needed correction and a strong sense of purpose- as we daily get into His word
God speaks to me and I listen and do as I'm told. God has taken me on a path working with troubled teens, being a foster parent to six teenage girls, House parent to eight native American teenage boys, working with families to prevent the state from removing the children, and finally on the career path I became a caseworker for child protection services. I had no college degree. God opened doors and directed my every step and never left my side
Prayers for all
Every single Day! God speaks to me. You are one of his Angels.
Love that, wonderful. God is good❤❤
May God further bless you and yours.
wow, it takes a special woman to take on those kinds of responsibilities god bless you🙏🏽
“ HE doesn’t give you vision without provision” said the man of God.
As the saying goes, He doesn't call the equipped, He equips the called.
God is touching and changing dr.‘Peterson right in front of my eyes.
I have been learning from this man since 2016 and it has been quite a journey for him and it is incredible to see how God’s hand is molding him and guiding him, even when he did not see it. Praise God for him and his family
Agreed. He is so close to the childlike faith Jesus calls for. Once he’s exhausted all the intellectuality, he’ll be left with obedient surrender to the King.
Love that this movie has been released on July 4th, showing us what is actually important, not drinking and overeating
and not AI, nor Ozempic, nor politics, nor elderly people -- we are all forgetful, and fragile -- at every age.
"One thing I know about God; He does not give vision without provision." What an incredibly powerful statement. This is the most inspirational and positive podcast I've seen Dr. Peterson host, and that's saying a lot. Also: "I'm too old a cat to be fooled by a kitten." Best line ever! Thanks Bishop Martin.
I absolutely love this message. The American church has missed the mark with regards to caring for the orphans and the widows. I hope and pray that this spark lights a fire that changes the face of adoption and the church. Also, I must say Bishop can preach! Come on Bishop! Love this!
There is no such thing as "the American church"
We have allowed the state to usurp our responsibilities as Christians. They have slowly replaced a church system of grace and love with one that makes their charges their serfs. The church system empowers the people in need. The state system makes them into commodities that they can control to have power over them.
@@heatherrhoda5242Okay, then, the church in America. I find your remark disingenuous.
The more we read the word of God, the clearer God's voice becomes
Bruh. We're actually having respectful conversations across race lines in the name of Jesus. This is a huge underated W for us as a nation! What a beautiful gift to have seen this on the 4th of July no less. What a beautiful message. Let's help each other and come together in the name of Jesus Christ. ! God is moving and he is speaking. He's showing us the way. His hand is on us. !
His intuition of knowing the debth of her mothers passing and the storys of Jonah are very touching
Glory to God!
Let us be His hands and feet 🕊️
Amen!!!
Amen 🙏🏾… I was thinking the same thing.
Amen
What a beautiful woman, Donna is! She is blessed to have a husband so understanding of the meaning of love and obedient to the Lord’s call.
Dr. Peterson, may God bless you and keep you in your grief. I pray your mother is home with and singing praises to her creator.
Mama's are amazing. So are Grandmas. Mine made me the woman I am today, a believer in Jesus Who can see hypocrisy in a heartbeat and genuine love and grounding as well. This is chock full of grounding in true love and the goodness of God in the land of the living.
I love your mesaages Dr. Peterson. Sound of Hope is a fantastic movie and message. I cried watching it. My husband and I have been foster care parents for my 3 grandkids. After 2 years, they have been placed back with their mom. My daughter. Praise God for healing and delivering my daughter. ❤
Lol ok
I thought it was sound of hope not freedom
@Stumpwater27 Yes, it is. Thank you. I changed it.
"When the heart breaks,
it opens up."
Empathy comes after experiencing pain as some man said.
The media and tv, teach men and women that their broken heart
can be healed only with materialism, addictions, gambling, sugar addiction, short term pleasure etc
instead of connection and healthy hobbies.
@alenaadamkova7617 You are so right. Pain can cause us to feel empathy. Addictions are a mechanism to numb pain, but it gets worse and worse until we deal with it and heal it at the root cause. Thanks for sharing.
The clarity of this discussion is what the world is missing. Concise, honest and true
So beautiful.
Jordan B Peterson must be protected at all cost, he is a global treasure, restoring hope to the world.
Don't forget his wife needs our prayers and the children and the children's children and extended family and...Just the whole world! Focus on the one family and pretty soon you are praying for the whole of humanity.
I don't think there's any way to do what these people have done without God. Thank you for your testimonies! Not only are they instructional but also challenging.
This is the best Jordan Peterson video, hands down. What a story
I can't stop crying for joy. I might empty my kleenex box, but will watch every bit!
Just watched it with my sister and my 91 year old dad. We all were crying, and sometimes sobbing (my dad as well). A beautifully done movie that did not hide the hardships, and kept the focus on the redeeming power of Jesus through whatever struggle comes.
Denmark is spending 100 million $$ to have its citizens to eat less meat.
Get ready.
Liiiiiikkikiiiiiiiiii Okmulgee mmm
Jp is a ike loving n loving fgt

Crying actually means you have empathy, that you may release unwanted emotions and move to
loving and higher state of consciousness.
It actaully may create joy and happiness.
Lol ok
I've been a follower of Dr. Peterson for a few years now and love his message and what he stands for. I am the oldest of five children, all of us adopted. Fortunately none of us were in the foster care system and were all adopted privately very young. My wife and I however were unable to have children of our own and fostered several children before eventually adopting our now daughter. My brother and sister in law also fostered several kids for a couple of years so I am very familiar with the system. Seeing this is such a wonderful thing. I will plan on seeing the movie as soon as possible. I hope that this brings lots of help and healing to many children and their families. God bless you for your efforts and in your endeavors moving forward.
My church enjoys 36 foster children.
Our Pastor of Counseling has fostered many, currently 4, and just adopted two.
He has been so frustrated with Social Services.
I can’t imagine how difficult it is to hang in there given the hoops the government demands and all that they fail to deliver.
God bless and guide these children to a loving home.
Dearest Dr. Peterson, here is a long and silent and very tender hug. I am so thankful that I got to give you one in person. I am crying for and with you. I sensed when I saw you in Boston that your grief was so deep that you couldn’t talk about it but I wanted you to know I saw it on your face and in your eyes and I care so very very much. There is a line from an old book “The Country of the Pointed Firs,” a Maine lit classic, in which the maternal main character remarks, “There, you never get over being a child, long as you have a mother to go to.” And that when you lose your mother, some part of you that was a child grows up. I could see in your face that you looked inexplicably older.
I read your blog post from 2019, “Thoughts on my Mother’s 80th birthday,” and it made me sob. I felt that I got to know your mom through it and I cried for your loss.
Here’s another hug from Ruth Anne, at present stuck under a sleeping child who needed to fall asleep on Mommy.
Great comments. My mother died of Alzheimer's a few yeas back, my father a couple of years later. You do feel oddly vulnerable when both parents have passed, that feeling of being closer to the end of life. You also wish you could have said more to them, done more for them. That feeling takes a while to get over.
Ruth Anne,
I love,love,love your post. I too saw Dr.Peterson in person in 2018 in Amsterdam and he had the weight of the world in his eyes. An imperfect,brilliant and beloved man.He’s the best. From one mom to another, Much love,Ruth Anne😌😌❤
@@makermagazine5853 hugs hugs HUGS!!!
@@autumnleaves2766, when my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up... He is dearer than ever, now that my parents have passed on. He really is my Heavenly Father 🙏🏼❤️✝️📖🌿
Hubby and I saw the Sound of Hope today, 7/4/24, when it opened. I was adopted at two days old. This film, like Sound of Freedom, is a wake up call for the church. Just as Covid response was a sifting. Too many professing believers gave in to fear, bowed to the tyranny’s and embraced the offer of a RNA experimental drug. All tragic. Time to repent church if you went along with the lies and nonsense.
At 39 I met my biological siblings for the first time. I was the last child of our mother, and the only one placed in adoption. I was, without a doubt the most fortunate one of her children.
I love you for not hating the people who raised you!
(as I often see that happens. at encouragement of Satan, no doubt)
@@KatyaLearningForeverToInfinity not in the least. The people who raised me are/were Mom and Dad. (Both have passed away). I never had a desire to search and when that was getting a lot of talk show play in the 70s, I thought it was crazy. My “void” was not having grandparents as my last one died when I was 5.
As far as bio parents never met either. I only searched after Mom and Dad passed, and I wanted them to find someone who knew me prior to my roles as wife and mom. So we searched and found bio siblings. That has been a blessing as I was raised an only. And while they did not know me as I was adopted out as an infant (so was spared foster care and any childhood trauma). I never met bio mom or the sperm donor man (his identity is known only to God).
I was blessed, wanted, and well raised.
My siblings were not as fortunate as I. My brothers did experience horrors, sexual abuse, in foster care after our mother died (when I was only 15 month old). I was truly protected.
Pretend for a moment that I am one of your closest friends, and we are hanging out and I want to probe you to go just a bit deeper with your response. I might want to ask you as a close friend, What about “The Sound of Hope” and “The Sound of Freedom” makes them a “wake up call” to you? What is “the church” really supposed to wake up to? And why is it that it is “the church” that is being called here? What put “the church” to sleep, or rather why is the church sleeping? And what exactly do you mean by “the church”? And what relevance does the “Covid response” have here? Am I to hear another clarion call upon “the church” “to repent?” And what would that really mean “to repent,” I mean if we took that seriously? And aren’t there two different kinds of repentance, so how do we avoid the worldly form of repentance that doesn’t lead to salvation? What would that true repentance for this situation look like, or sound like, or more importantly, act like? And how do we avoid arrogance , because too often we can get too preoccupied with the speck in a brother’s eye and overlook the plank in our own. My friend, don’t get me wrong, we all must repent and do it continuously until our last dying breath, so that will certainly require action, lest it be mere lip service, but how does that happen here in this context? How would “the church” repent of its response to Covid? Is The Sound of Hope also a wake up call to repentance? Just curious friend, just curious.
@@KatyaLearningForeverToInfinity There would be no reason to do so, none at all. I was so absolutely fortunate.
@@edblain7474 I would be happy to have this conversation and only wish it could be done on the back deck with a cup of tea and a nice view of trees and the pond. Now do your questions over the cumbersome medium of texts, which can be so easily misconstrued as they lack tone and the benefit of facial expressions.
What faithful obedience to God! Just left the theater and I couldn’t stop crying. I feel so blessed and encouraged by this story.

5 min in this interview
My heart is breaking
🕊🙏🏻🕊♥️
Glad to have you here, survivor! 🙌❤️
Can’t wait to see the movie!
Who else was excited to see Jordan in the presence of good ole fashion preaching? Two faithful people who aren’t over thinking everything and know when it’s God speaking and give Him the Glory. Jordan kept trying to pull them into his heady way of thinking but all they can say without a shadow of a doubt it’s the Lord putting this in our hearts! Jordan always wanting to know the intricacies of how that works….lol Just believe Jordan and start your adventure of a lifetime, we’re all waiting to watch that unfold.
It's good to sincerely ask questions, and to seek the Lord! Jordan Peterson is pursuing truth. 🙏🏼❤️📖✝️🌿
Look up ark - Jordan has already begun his journey in faith in Jesus ❤
Test all the spirits means God too. ❤
I love Bishop and Donna, they have the same Spirit working through them that George Müller of England did, when he built his orphanages through faith and prayer.
My mother went missing 6 years ago yesterday. Also my birthday. I don't know how to feel things anymore. Thank you for this video. And thank you to the couple who started this beautiful thing.
Watch The Hours, it will soothe this wound.
Missing?!
Keep fighting champ 💪💪
That's awful. Hope you get an answer
Dear Heart, I can't imagine how hard that must be, not knowing where your Mother is, missing her. Know that you are so loved. You are dear to God, and to us! You are made in the image of God, so that means you are priceless 💖🤗📖🌷🌿 I hope you can find some good friends, a good and supportive church community and start to heal. God has good things for you in your life. 🌷
Praying for you, Dr. Peterson, that you will come to know the work of the Holy Spirit in your heart, hear His voice and embrace His leading.
I wouldn’t be so sure that He hasn’t. Unless you know Dr. Peterson personally and deeply, you cannot know that. Be a bit humble with your prayers and remember that you are praying to the One Who called Dr. Peterson to the mighty work he is doing now and sustains him while he doing that work.
@@afringedgentian5426 I’m not so sure that he has a true understanding of the Spirit living in him, since he questions his guests re how they knew they were hearing from God. I have no doubt that God is using Dr.Peterson, yet his knowledge seems to very intellectual, and not the knowledge of childlike faith. It seems to me that he uses the Bible to support his psychological understanding, not as the living, God-breathed inspired Word from the LORD Almighty. I will keep on praying for him.
@@user3-3204you are using your intellect to differentiate between what you call “childlike faith” and intellectualism. What if Jordan’s “childlike faith” leads him to be intellectual? You are a hypocrite.
@user3-3204 he's not "questioning" them in a doubtful. He wants them to elaborate that feeling for his, theirs, and his audiences further understanding. Everyone would explain that feeling in a different way as well. Just my opinion ❤
@@user3-3204 Peterson was merely asking how they feel that message, that's what the Bible, Torah and Quran teach, is to learn from those who come before you. Peace and blessings 🙂
So beautiful to watch the level of respect that Jordan and Tammy have for each other. It's the kind of love and respect that grows over a lifetime of commitment, joy and trials. ❤
Oh dear Dr. Peterson, I'm so sorry about your mother. My deepest condolences. 🖤🖤🖤
Went from 0 interest to 110 after hearing this.
God Bless everyone involved in this ministry and Dr. Peterson and Daily wire for bringing this story into the light.
Donna’s heart is speaking to my heart. Under the circumstances I don’t believe that God is calling me to be a foster mother. But I do believe that He is calling me to prepare to be a step-mother to motherless children. There is a beautiful Old Testament expression I have had constantly before me lately: “A mother in Israel.” And the sense of the phrase is a woman who is a mother to all children, not only the children of her body, but the children of her spirit. And I think I might be called to that. Perhaps all the pain I have experienced as a single mum has been to prepare me, as Donna’s grief prepared her.
Gen 24:60 And they blessed Rebekah and said to her: “Our sister, may you become The mother of thousands of ten thousands; And may your descendants possess The gates of those who hate them.” 🌹
I am a stepmother to 6 now adult children. It was not an easy road to travel but I have no regrets.
These people seem wonderful. I’m so glad I had the privilege of viewing this interview!
I would say that Jesus is smiling right now! ❤🙏🏼✝️
Yes❤❤❤
I love Jordan and Tammy! Such a godsend to the world at this time in history. Saw this movie today with my brother and my 94 year old mother with Alzheimer’s. She clapped at the end. We all did.
The problem is the system waits too long to take the children out of the situation as the show demonstrates. I worked for a counseling center and was the social worker assigned to child protection. I cried so hard in this movie because it is so true! I have seen these things first hand and worse. God save us as a society 😢
Well, I spent my 4th of July weeping. Couldn’t have been better.
Me too. ❤
Added Jordan to my prayer jar. Thank God his Mom produced this fine fruit.
"Giving" is essential to having a good life and making other lives good. That is because of it's function in such a social species as us humans. Without the "giving", a human is no longer social, making his life miserable as his essential means aren't met.
These people gave so much to plenty of children. God bless them
Jordan Peterson and his wife Tammy are being used of The Almighty who is God to reach millions and millions of people. This is what its truly about. Sharing the love of Jesus for those who are hurting. And this case in particular, love for the most precious among us, children in desperate need. Thank you Bishop and first Lady of your church for sharing your story. It is changing lives for the good.
This Reverand has a suit, overalls, and a clerical collar in his fit. He's fly!!
Please do a video between Donna and Tammy !!!! I can't wait to see the movie!
Would love to hear the women talk. The men dominated this conversation. Which is fine, but I wanted to hear more from Donna. ❤
Thank you for sharing glimmers of light in a world of so much darkness. ❤
I love these people. Bishop Martin and his wife are a gift to this world!
Peterson for President. Who cares if he is Canadian. Id vote for him.
He's OURS you can't have him 🤣🇨🇦🤪
True, but waaaaa better than taterhead.
Yes
I'd vote for Dr Peterson to be the next president of the USA, and I'm not even American. I'm Australian, but I love Jordan Peterson. Actually he would be the perfect Canadian prime minister. Much better than that idiot Trudeau.
Paul, President of Canada, you mean?
I loved this! Tammy, could you please have Donna on your podcast!?! I think you two have much more to talk about!❤❤❤
Sorry to hear of your loss Dr. Peterson. Praying for you and your family. Very nice to have Tammy join you with this interview. I have tickets for this weekend.
What a gift Peterson's Dad gave his wife and son. That upon her death his son had no bad memories of her . I have 5 sons and when my husband was diagnosed with cancer , I had to step into his role for awhile. My relationships with my younger sons suffered as a result of what was necessary. It was then that I realized that my joyful enjoyment of them , especially in their 20s, was a gift from my husband he sacrificed and did what was necessary and I get to enjoy the fruits of that.
Oh gosh... I've only just started listening but your comment on churches adopting children blew my mind... i am an adoptee... I'm blessed but it does come with the pain of the not knowing... growing up not feeling good enough etc etc... i have a wonderful story of finding my blood and it has all been beautiful... we need to go back to adopting children and getting them out of this awful system xo
This episode is so encouraging to me as a young mother to 4 boys. My deepest condolences to the Peterson family❤
I have never heard from a pastor about adoption in the Bible and that was so wonderful how he quoted Ephesians, Moses, and Jesus being adopted.. we are adopted into God’s family.
If you wanna get to the best part of this video skip the first hour and listen to this preacher preach what God is trying to accomplish here!
'Because of Thy mercies Lord, we are not consumed'
God has given us the honor of participating in His work. It requires self denying responsibility, which is produced from of His unconditional love. May we be guided by Him constantly.
❤✝🌈 *“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.* *If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own.* *As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.* *That is why the world hates you.* 20 Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. - John 15:18-20
Could you for the love of God STOP using the holy scripture to spam the comment section for clicks! There is going to be a God awful judgement for mishandling the precious and sacred scripture and I’d really not wish that on anybody.
@@afringedgentian5426 ❤✝ *And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.* Mark 16:15
Bishop is about to get Jordan saved
He’s definitely sharing the word.
AMEN
What if Jordan is already saved than most of us who think we are saved?
God bless your work Dr. Peterson.
One of the most inspiring videos ever. I plan to watch “Sound of Hope”.
Amen. God is awesome. This moment is an awesome demonstration of God’s love and power. The people in this room are awesome. May they all stay humble and God’s blessing follow them for the rest of their lives and beyond.
There are some very powerful moments in this conversation
Thank you so much Jordan. Thank you to your guests.
Praise God for what He is doing…in the midst of so much brokenness.
I can say a hearty AMEN! To this testimony and conversation…
And I know the truth of what your guests have spoken.
God Bless all of you. May your compassion bring you happiness always
Love the haircut JBP.
Order up front. Chaos in the back.
Getting a bit too chaotic in the back there, tbh lol
lol
Good one. You are paying attention.
I saw this movie yesterday, and there were plenty of tears in seeing miracles portrayed, some born in conflict, or a need for patience. I think the movie takes you through the hardships so that if you're considering adopting a child, you have an idea of what you will be challenged with. But, good Lord, the blessings that came about... and the epilogue to the film. THAT is the manifestation of the blessings! WOW! Well done!
"Adoption is the antidote to abortion." I wonder what would happen when the rich and the poor can no longer have abortions (to hide shame/prevent ostracism/advance personal agendas). How will we respond?
Great testimony, of the power of God and willing vessels. Her poor family and community was more in tact than a rich person's family/community - and the love they shared fueled their mission. Great things coming from the back woods :)
Well, there’d be less unplanned pregnancies but there would still be abortions either way. Inevitably though if abortion wasn’t a thing there’d be more children to adopt
This interview must be broadcast across the globe 🌎 to expose and declare the truth! AMEN! 💯✝️🕊🙏 🙌 ❤️🫂👣 GOD BLESS YOU.
Well UNDER-wstched❤ So grateful for the Peterson's work and their guests 🙏
It's our job to share to help it along. I'm crying, thinking of my momma....
It was fun to watch the country preach teach the Harvard professor. That's just how the Lord will do a thing.
Bishop Martin is so wise. What an inspiration!
I love the way he compares the biblical stories with current life situations
That's what we are supposed to do. The Bible is a manual for life❤
I did not expect to cry while watching a Jordan Peterson video. But this one did me in!
Sorry for your loss, happy for your memories. I would die gladly to just hug and talk to my parents. They passed years ago. So glad you and your wife have made it through so much.
This conversation warmed my heart. My deep condolences to Dr. P on the loss of your Mom. You'll see her again! Thank you for doing good work on this earth
❤❤❤
Following Dr. Peterson from Bolivia 🇧🇴🇧🇴
What an absolute joy to hear what these people have done for the world. Exceptional human beings
I so loved this! Thank you so much and God bless you all!
Posom Trout a community of love to give, and lessons to learn, blessings unseen as all are becoming refined. ❤🤗😊🤭🥰
If I had Jordan as a teacher at any one point in my academic career, I would be set by now. God bless you Jordan.
We just saw it and laughed and cried!! Such an incredible and important film!!
Excellent episode! Excellent guests! I love having Tammy, she fit in perfectly with the guest panel. I enjoy that JP is testing out his Bible viewpoints with protestants, we need more of that! These guests are true protestants Christians. That's a very good marker that a child has been adopted by a Christian family, it's very rare to get that with a fake Christian, fakes don't want to adopt a child or help with adoption, they're not thinking about helping the orphans.
Thank you for this inspiring episode. Can't wait to see the movie with a pocket full of tissues. God bless.
Just Beauty! And the power of God. Blessed be the children, pray 🙏 for them and strength that we too can help.
Fill yourself with prayer and the Word and you will know Holy Spirit .

I met Dr. Peterson when I attended his 12 rules for life in Des Moines, Iowa. . I showed him all my 5 adopted kids from foster care and he gave me advice for the journey. It was a ray of sunshine that I am still thankful for.
True Religion of our Father is this. Look after widows and orphans in distress and don’t be polluted by things of this world. Go JP. Hope to see you in Iowa again.
Awesome
This is one to repeat! So good. Loved the mini sermons! Please accept my condolences on the passing of your mother Dr. Peterson.
Thank you Dr. Peterson for shining a light on this story! I have family from Possum Trot in East Texas and I’m so proud to see a story about the breakdown of the American family get the attention it deserves. 🙏🏽
Thank you very much! 🙏❤
Dr. Jordan is changing my life and my heart!! To God be all the glory!
James 1:27 pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
I could not love this more!! Such wisdom from all 5! As a pediatric occupational therapist who has worked with many children in the foster care system through the years, I admire so much what this community has done! Let The Church rise up and do likewise! ✝️
Yahweh blesses you BROTHER🙏
Sorry for the loss of your Mother Dr Peterson. My sincere condolences to your family.
I like his podcast, because I learn a lot about life with the topic truly I need
You learn to hear the voice of God by obeying the teachings of God first. Then, when you have a thought that God wants to speak to you, you've learned the sound of God's voice.
We've fostered and adopted 7 kids. It was the hardest thing God has ever told our family to do, but God also provided everything we needed.
So beautiful. So powerful. Tears streaming.
Being a Mother is my life calling. Listening to this gives me such peace and affirmation in my walk. May God help us all to listen and walk in faith together as God’s children.
What Tammy said "With Gratitude" is so important
