“One of the many wonderful blessings of adoption is what it teaches us about God -- about his character, his passions, and his love for us as adopted sons and daughters. Kristin Swick Wong has used her adoption journey as a palette to paint a beautiful picture of our Heavenly Father.”
- Dennis Rainey, President,
Family Life
“I was immediately captivated by this book. Like Kristin Wong, I am parent to a child, adopted internationally, named Benjamin. And like Benjamin Wong, our Benjamin brought to family and friends a great, more vivid meaning to life and to the blessings God bestows on us. I fully intend to use Carried Safely Home as a resource in my work and know that it will be savored by many as a reflection of their own journeys in faith and adoption.
- Gary N. Gamer,
President and CEO
Holt International Children’s Services
"This is a stunningly beautiful and moving book. Filled with expectation, hope and fulfillment, it has something to teach each of us, whether adoptive parent or not, about the love and provision of our faithful God."
- Christine Field, author of
Should You Adopt?
“Many ‘how to’ books exist to guide us through the legal and procedural aspects of adoption. That’s the easy part. For the Christ Follower, however, the real challenge becomes the life long, spiritual journey we embark on when we choose to join God in His redemptive work of adoption. Kristin Wong has captured the spiritual significance of that journey and challenges us to begin the trek.”

(from the Foreword of Carried Safely Home)
"Adoption is an often overwhelming and disorienting process. At times one can feel like others do not understand, and it can be difficult to articulate the internal experience. Kristin Swick Wong has perfectly captured this journey; one does not feel so alone. She then adds thoughtful spiritual reflections that help us meet God in the midst of adoption. Great for adoptive families and for those who draw close to them."
- Jill Barnhart, International Adoption Clinic,
University of Alabama at Birmingham
"Here is an excellent case study of one family's experience with two international adoptions--the pain and the reward. Kristin Wong comfortably combines her mother's heart with a delightfully edifying grasp of big picture adoption theology."
- Stephen Board,The Writer’s Edge,
Former editor of InterVarsity’s His and Eternity magazines
