Dr. Kristin Kirkland is a pre-birth matched domestic adoptee and self-proclaimed “front row church gal” who considers it a miracle that her faith in God survived her childhood in the Church and subsequent deconstruction journey. God’s gentle hand guiding her through the weeds of relinquishment trauma and adoption complexity left her with a higher view of God’s unfailing, unconditional love and justice, and some fierce words for the Church.

Kristin unequivocally believes that God desires more from His Bride—more accurate theology, more fidelity to His Word, and more gentleness and generosity with one another—all things He can guide us to when we listen and humbly submit to His correction and leadership.

Kristin is a family medicine physician, public health expert, anti-trafficking advocate, wife, musical theatre performer, and vintage enthusiast.

She coaches through her writing, primarily on her Substack: Still Cultivating.
