“Hope for the Journey is an opportunity for us to rally around families with hope in the form of encouraging, practical resources and tools, as you journey to love and care for the children entrusted to you.”

— Mary Beth & Steven Curtis Chapman, Founders, Show Hope

What Others Are Saying

“This was our first exposure to TBRI. It was life-changing to us as new foster parents in a difficult season.

We are incredibly grateful for the chance to learn about this model and now are eager to continue to learn more.”

— Hope for the Journey Participant

“I love this [resource]! Every year, folks are in tears at understanding what’s going on inside their children. I also have folks who participate every year, and they always walk away with something new. I love that it has the gospel woven in—one of a very few trauma-informed [resources] that is presented through a biblical lens. I believe TBRI is one of the closest care models that best represents God’s heart.”

— Hope for the Journey Participant

"Show Hope’s Hope for the Journey has allowed our church to throw open the doors to our neighbors, saying,

'Welcome! We are FOR you and your family. God loves you and so do we.'”

— Tracy Taplin, Ministry Leader & Educator
