Kirk Cameron on Adoption

Kirk Cameron is most well-known for his role on the TV show Growing Pains. Today he gives his time to sharing the Gospel and helping others do the same through the Way of the Master ministry. I have become more and more impressed with Kirk’s heart and passion over the last few years and just recently found out he and his wife have adopted four of their six children.

In a recent interview he was asked “How has adoption changed you life?” His reply:

“By giving me four beautiful children to love. Adoption is so special. My adopted kids know that they’re in our family because we wanted them to be in our family. We chose them. That’s something special that every adopted child can know. They didn’t have to be adopted by their parents. They really wanted them. They’re just my kids. Literally, I forget who’s adopted and who’s not. It really doesn’t seem like that. They’re my kids, I’m their dad and Chelsea’s their mom. It’s just a great, wonderful way to not only have a family yourself but meet a real need in the lives of so many of these orphans.”
