About the Author Tori Hope Petersen (Track and Field All-American) is a former foster youth letting her Abba be known. She is passionate about foster care reform, adoption advocacy, vulnerable populations, and seeing the love of God change peoples lives! Tori speaks across the nation sharing her powerful story, but her favorite form of art and communication is writing. Tori and her husband, Jacob, have the three sweetest kids: a biological son and daughter, Leyonder and Ezzeri, and an adopted adult son, Sar. Follow her on @torihopepetersen. If you’re wondering if God can truly move in the life of someone with all the odds stacked against her, look no further than Tori Hope Petersen. Tori grew up in the foster care system, a bi-racial child in a confusing and volatile world. Growing up with a mentally ill mother and living in twelve different foster homes, nothing was in her favor. And yet, even with a minuscule chance of graduating college and a great risk of being homeless, jobless, and on drugs, Tori overcame every negative stereotype and assumption that attacked her identity. However, Tori will tell you she did not overcome. Christ did. In the face of the storm, Jesus made a way for Tori to find profound hope, deep faith, renewed purpose, and a loving family, too. After so many years of being on one side of foster care as a child, Tori is now on the other side as a foster mom, adoptive mom, and biological mom. On top of that, she became a Track and Field All-American in college and now works with nonprofits, ministries, and beyond advocating for foster care reform, adoption advocacy, and help for vulnerable populations. If you want to hear the true tale of an unlikely overcomer, this book is for you. If you want to learn more about the foster care system from a former foster youth’s perspective, this book is for you. If you want to better dwell in the reality of your own spiritual adoption by our Heavenly Father and better understand the orphan and the widow that He loves dearly, this book is for you. Ultimately, if you want to remember who God is, and what He can do through the most unlikely of people, Fostered is for you. Review “There are few books whose dedications move you. From its first page to its last, Fostered will draw you in at heart-level and transform you from curious reader to grateful witness. Tori Hope Petersen is a storyteller-poet for our day, one whose words are lovingly raw: raw like real life-and raw like redemption. With care, compassion and conviction, Tori invites you to wade in the deep waters of both her belovedness-and yours.” -Ashlee Eiland, Author of Human Kind “Toris story of growing up as a child in very vulnerable situations deeply touched me. She writes with such courage and honesty, and yet also from such a place of peace and healing. Many lives will be impacted by it!” -Crystal Paine, New York Times bestselling author, podcaster, and foster mom “Tori tells the truth. And it is pure power. She drags the darkness into the light with skill and softness. Far from a conventional story, her truth is told with grace, and it leaves you wanting more. More light in your life, more freedom in this world, and more kids to know they are so deeply loved and for more and more people to experience the wide welcome of inclusion and belonging that could change everything for all of us. Get this book. You’ll be awed, inspired and hopeful for the possibility of a different future for all of us.” -Danielle Strickland, Author and Speaker “In her memoir Fostered, Tori provides honest reflections from her life experiences. Tori’s story provides insights into the challenges and trauma many foster youth face, while also providing hopeful perspective that Christ and the Church can offer for anyone facing difficult circumstances. I am inspired by Tori’s ability to share with vulnerability and empathy.” -Lauren Green McAfee, Corporate Ambassador, Hobby Lobby; Author, Only O
