Can you tell how I feel about 700 Club co-host Pat Robertson's advice that you should be cautious about adopting because you're taking on "damaged goods"? Honestly, I feel frustrated. But perhaps I feel even more sad. Because Robertson is missing a beautiful truth; when we were "damaged," God took us on and adopted us in love (Ephesians 1:4-5).
