Based on a real family that was built in a very extraordinary way.
The Brumfield's grow not only in size but in Love. Their different eyes, unique noses, and special hair and skin display the beautiful array of God's personality and intentional design. Through this family, children will discover that you don't have to match to be a family, that every child is special and wanted, and that God is the Love that glues a family together.
Love
Not all families look alike. They don't need to match or come from the same hue. But the house built by God is built with special glue. This glue is called Love, and all the while it grew. It put together our differences and tied together our new.
Colors
Love can build a family; it can build a nation, too. Love calls us all family and He says, "There's always room." Love made all our colors; His family is radiantly bright. Love calls us each by name and we're all His great delight.
"...for God is love." 1 John 4:8
Family
The family that God builds is surrounded by love, Overflowing with thankfulness, and abounding with "more than enough." Families aren't perfect, but brilliant grace keeps them secure and so safe. The world can see God's full personality in each diverse face.
Reviews
"I cried reading this book by our precious Natalie Brumfield. Simply beautiful - a children's book that is the Brumfield family story- oh but much more than a story; a symbolic prophecy of redeeming love that can right a great wrong and work a great miracle through the wonder of adoption. Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote a book called Uncle Tom's cabin which Abraham Lincoln credited the ending the tragedy of slavery. Wouldn't it be like God for a children's book to help end the tragedy of abortion? "Out of the mouths of babes you've ordained praise to silence the foe and avenger." May the praises of the little Brumfield Babes join with the praises of the thousands of adopted children who are finding a family in this revolution of love. May thousands of parents read and be so touched by God that they follow the simple pageantry and poetry of this profound family prophecy and lead the parade of justice history through adoption." -Lou Engle, Lou Engle Ministries
"Natalie's family is a work of art--vibrant in color and poetic in deed.The House that Love Built paints a beautiful picture of love, family, and answered prayers." -Matt Lockett, Executive Director of Bound4LIFE
"The House That Love Built is the beautiful story of how God builds families and knits them together through His love. Natalie Brumfield's true account is a reminder of the power of people opening their hearts and homes to foster care and adoption. This wonderfully written and illustrated book will captivate children and adults alike." Beth Cunningham, Children's Pastor of Church of the Highlands
"The House that Love Built is a delightful true story written by a mother with a heart as wide as the ocean. As a new foster parent this book gives me faith to dream for the building of my family. The charming, whimsical illustrations pair perfectly with this poetic story. This book teaches children about the value of love, family, and tells them they are worthy regardless of who they are and where they came from." -Christina Bennett, foster mother, author, and speaker of Ambassadors Speakers Bureau
