This couple met while both of them were students at West Point.īob: Both of them were cadets.
Well, that’s where I graduated-the University of Arkansas. I should take you to the Harvard of the Ozarks. TJ: “Harvard on the Hudson” is what we like to call it.ĭennis: Harvard on the Hudson. They live in West Point, New York, where there is a little school right? If you’re looking for a wedding gift, a Weekend to Remember is definitely a good one to give.ĭennis: Well, this is a unique couple. It was actually a wedding present that was given to us-and I would highly recommend it. So, it’s fun to come together and partner in this way.ĭennis: Well, you guys attended the Weekend to Remember ®-was it before you got married, or was it after? And we’ve appreciated the ministry of FamilyLife over the years. We’re very thankful to be here and excited to be here. It’s about foster care and going near the heart of the orphan.TJ and Jenn Menn join us on FamilyLife Today. There are times when I will hear about a couple or hear about their story or about the book that they’ve written, and I just think, “Okay, they’re going to wind up on FamilyLife Today one way or another”-just because I know the subject of what’s being talked about is something that’s right at the heart of what you and Barbara have been passionate about for years.ĭennis: It is. Stay with us.Īnd welcome to FamilyLife Today. TJ and Jenn Menn join us today to share with us the adventure they’ve been on as they have become foster parents.
Our host is the President of FamilyLife ®, Dennis Rainey, and I’m Bob Lepine. We also mourn it-we also cry just like Jesus’s disciples were weeping when He died-but then they celebrated when they understood what was going on.īob: This is FamilyLife Today for Thursday, June 29 th. When that family can be taken from brokenness to whole and have their children back-we celebrate that. What we’re experiencing when we are doing life with these children and with their birth parents and with their social workers is really-we are all witnessing and are a part of the redemption of a family. Jenn: We’re not defined by the time that they leave-just as Jesus isn’t defined by His death-but rather His resurrection. Bob: When TJ and Jenn Menn decided they would open their hearts and their home to become foster parents, they didn’t fully understand all that they were getting themselves into.
