When Callings Collide: Navigating Foster Care in Marriage | Sunny & Caleb Lampert

Episode Notes

Is foster care a personal calling, an act of Christian obedience—or both? How do you know if you’re ready? And what happens when one spouse feels called to foster, but the other doesn’t? 

In this episode, we sit down with Caleb and Sunny Lampert, foster and adoptive parents of four, for an honest conversation about the realities of fostering. They share how their individual callings didn’t always align in marriage, and what it looked like to move from hesitation to wholehearted commitment. 

The Lamperts open up about the surprising truths people don’t often talk about, the challenges and joys of fostering, and the wisdom they’ve gained through lived experience. If you’ve ever wondered what fostering really requires—or how faith shapes the journey—this episode is for you.
