The Call to Love: Adoption, Foster Care, and the Heart of God | Ashley and Joel Wingo | Ep. 34

The Call to Love: Adoption, Foster Care, and the Heart of God | Ashley and Joel Wingo | Ep. 34

Why would a couple take in child after child, many from traumatic situations, knowing they might have to say goodbye? For Joel and Ashley Wingo, the answer is simple: God's love for the most vulnerable.

In this episode, Bethany and Adam sit down with longtime friends Joel and Ashley, adoptive parents of seven and foster parents to many more, to talk about the beauty, heartbreak, and calling of foster care and adoption. From their first $25,000 private adoption to welcoming twin babies during the chaos of COVID, their story is marked by radical obedience, faith-stretching provision, and a deep conviction that every child deserves a family.

They share what it's really like to parent children who’ve experienced trauma and how we as Christians can support the vulnerable, whether we open our homes, give financially, or simply start paying attention.

Guest Bio:

Joel and Ashley Wingo are parents of seven children—three biological and four adopted—and have welcomed many more into their home through foster care. Married for over 22 years, they’ve walked through a wide range of adoption and foster care experiences, from private infant adoptions to navigating the complexities of the foster system during a global pandemic. Their lives are marked by deep faith, resilience, and a passion to reflect God’s heart for the vulnerable. Whether through hands-on parenting or simply showing up for a child in crisis, the Wingos believe every Christian has a role to play in the pro-life story.
