About Us
The Meaning Behind the Name
This ministry was founded by three women who were searching for Christian answers to the questions encountered in their personal struggles with infertility and pregnancy loss. The founders named their ministry Stepping Stones with the hope that, like properly placed stones across a running stream, Stepping Stones would build a bridge to guide travelers across the waters of discouragement, loneliness, and loss that are often part of the infertility experience.
Stepping Stones Today
John and Sylvia Van Regenmorter are the directors of Stepping Stones. They are co-authors of When the Cradle Is Empty: Answering Tough Questions About Infertility (Focus on the Family and Tyndale House Publishers, 2004). This book and other published resources are available from the Stepping Stones Bookstore Catalog.
The Van Regenmorters have also written articles about infertility for national Christian magazines including Christianity Today, Focus on the Family, and Moody. John and Sylvia travel across the country and speak about infertility and adoption. They have also made several appearances on The 700 Club.
John and Sylvia experienced infertility for the first ten years of their marriage. The Van Regenmorters' two oldest children were adopted through Bethany Christian Services.
The Bethany Connection
In 1997, Stepping Stones became a ministry of Bethany Christian Services, a not-for-profit, Christian adoption and family services agency with more than 75 locations in the United States and ministries in more than a dozen countries. John Van Regenmorter also serves as Chaplain/Director of Christian Life for Bethany.
