Dr. Borgman is an adoptive father and author of the book After They Are Yours: The Grace and Grit of Adoption, which says: “Adoption offers a powerful testimony of grace in a world of unwanted pregnancies and on-demand abortion. But no one said adoption is easy. As an adoptive parent and pastor who has counseled many adoptive parents, Brian Borgman knows there is another side to adoption that we are often reluctant to talk about. Parenting is always a challenge, but parenting an adopted child can have some special challenges. After They Are Yours: The Grace and Grit of Adoption talks transparently and redemptively about the often unspoken problems adoptive parents face. Combining personal experience, biblical wisdom, and a heart for people, Borgman recalls the humbling and difficult lessons God has taught him and his wife … a story of struggles and failures set in the broader context of a God who is gracious and continually teaches us the meaning of adoption.”
The foreword to Dr. Borgman’s book is by Dan Cruver, president of Together for Adoption, and it also has heavy endorsements from Christian Alliance for Orphans, LifeSong for Orphans, and Focus on the Family. He has also written Feelings and Faith: Cultivating Godly Emotions in the Christian Life, and Spiritual Warfare: A Biblical and Balanced Perspective, and he has contributed to the ESV Women’s Devotional Bible, among other works.
