In part two of our conversation with Russ Sahr, we move beyond the beginnings of his story and into the heart of what it has looked like to walk in obedience to God through adoption.
Russ shares more deeply about the journey of adopting four children with special needs—what it looked like to trust God in the unknown, navigate challenges, and depend on Him in ways he never had before. What began as a calling has become a daily walk of faith, where strength, patience, and grace are continually shaped by the Lord.
Through both the difficulties and the joys, Russ reflects on how God has been faithful in every step. He opens up about how this journey has stretched his understanding of family, deepened his relationship with God, and revealed more of God’s character along the way.
