A church in our area hosted a women's conference in April. I will admit that I attended for one reason: Jen Hatmaker. I love her heart for Jesus, the lost, orphans, adoption, and many other things. I left the conference a little early Friday night and noticed that only three people were in line to meet Jen (it got super long quickly afterward). I hopped in line and picked up her book, Interrupted. We had a great conversation about open adoption. I'm so thankful I left early so I could chat with Jen for a couple of minutes.
A few weeks later I finally had time to read Interrupted. It's a must read in my opinion. It's about Jen's (and family) journey from being at a mega church and doing many "good" things for believers to starting a church and being very focused on the lost and loving people in hard places/difficult circumstances. It is so good and was much needed encouragement for me.
