✨ All meals during the live training weekend
✨ Comprehensive training materials
✨ Access to the online training course

✨ And more!

Whether you're looking to serve foster, adoptive, and bio families or expand your ability to support children from hard places, this training will equip you with practical tools and a deeper understanding of trauma-informed care.

🌱 The journey to healing starts here.

Over 5 weeks, you'll receive:
✨ Therapeutic parenting training

✨ Live teaching sessions

A tiny seed.
A tender story.
A powerful reminder about our hearts. 🌱

Little Seed by King’s Ranch Ministries Co-Founder Lee Anne Cooper beautifully brings the Parable of the Sower to life for children and families through gentle storytelling and meaningful imagery inspired by Luke 8:1–15.

Perfect for bedtime reading, faith conversations, and planting seeds that last for generations. 🤍

The truth is, babies who have experienced stress, neglect, or trauma in the womb often have a harder time bonding with their adoptive mom and dad.

But for new adoptive parents, meeting the unknown needs of your adoptive child can cause real anxiety.

Unplowed Ground Baby will equip you for a lifetime of attachment and love.

At King’s Ranch Ministries, we believe supporting children means equipping families long after placement day. 🤍
