Father John Sweeney of Christ the Servant Church joins guest host Mike Kraft for Pastor Appreciation Month to share a story that spans 38 years of marriage, seven children by birth and adoption, and one more — a foster baby — in his home right now, at 60 years old. John and his wife Kelly adopted three kids from South Korea and Liberia after Kelly had a vivid, tearful vision at a stoplight of a little girl sitting on a bed with a bow on her head. Years later, a form John handed out to his own congregation ended up face-down on his dresser, filled out in Kelly’s handwriting: a calling to foster infants. In the middle of it all, John and Kelly walked through every parent’s worst nightmare — losing their son Tyler to a congenital heart condition at age 10 — and found, in their grief, that “Jesus is enough” wasn’t just something to say, but something to live. It’s a raw, hard-won conversation about trauma-informed parenting, obedience long after you think you’re done, and why John still answers the door at 60 for one more child who needs a home.
