Summary
According to James 1:27, "Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world." Today, there are over 160 million children worldwide who are without parents. In America there are as many as 144,000 boys and girls in foster care wanting to be adopted. These staggering statistics should cause Christians to ask some probing questions: What would the church look like if we obeyed James 1:27? Why doesn't the church at large talk much about adoption? This film answers those questions and inspires Christians to love and care for the most vulnerable--the orphan. Featuring interviews with R.C. Sproul, Jr., Beall Phillips, and many others, Rescued is an invaluable resource for every Christian who wants to live in obedience to God's will
