Hello friend! You might notice we’re posting this week’s episode a tad early, because SUMMER. We also believe you need these words in your earbuds as quickly as possible!

Today at The Messy Table, Cindy Beall and I are chatting with a real-life hero who’s teaching us a thing or two about brokenness and belonging. Britanie Ramirez is a pastor’s wife, biological + foster mama, podcast host of Becoming Fosters, and a passion-fueled advocate for those who’ve found themselves in hard and even heart-wrenching situations.

“These kids need to know how loved they are, whether they’re with us for 6 hours or 6 years.” —Britanie Ramirez

Britanie and her family have opened their doors to 23 children (and counting)! But she’s not looking for a badge of honor, a pat on the back, or some fancy title. Instead, she’s simply paying attention to the needs right in front of her—and choosing to do something about it.

No matter your involvement or experience with foster care, we ALL can benefit from Britanie’s uniquely beautiful perspective. Join us!
