When your story begins in loss, can it still lead to hope? 💛

What does it look like to let God rewrite your story of abandonment, identity, and belonging?

Hi Neighbor,

Sometimes the most powerful stories of faith begin in the hardest places. That’s true for my guest, Ayden Lincoln, an adoption advocate, author, and adult adoptee who was found abandoned in a shoebox in China and adopted into a family from Pennsylvania.

Her journey from loss to purpose is one of resilience, redemption, and grace. In our conversation, Ayden shares how she’s learning to make peace with her beginnings while helping others find healing in theirs.

Together, we talk about:
✨ The courage to face the pain of your story
💪 What it means to belong when your past feels broken
🌱 How faith can turn grief into growth

Ayden reminds us that healing doesn’t mean forgetting where we came from—it means trusting God to bring beauty from what was once broken. 🙏

If you’ve ever questioned your place in the story, Ayden’s words will remind you that you are not forgotten—and that your beginning does not define your becoming. 💙

Anchors of Hope and Healing are on the way.

Your Neighbor,
Tim 💙
