CCM artist Nate Huss’s song, “Your Own,” is being used in national media campaigns, including one by Focus on the Family, to highlight adoption during National Adoption Month in November.Nate Huss knows a thing or two about adoption. At only three weeks old, he became the youngest of the eight lively “global kids” adopted from around the world by Dave & Sylvia Huss.The 23-year-old Huss noted in a recent interview:

“I’m thankful to God and to a biological mother that I never knew who chose the option of life for me. I am a planned mistake, a blessed gift. Growing up with wonderful adopted parents and seven amazing brothers and sisters of different nationalities–I have been blessed to get to appreciate life at its’ fullest.”

Because of his own personal experience with adoption, Nate has chosen to be an outspoken voice of support for the adoption agenda on a national level, as well as doing one-on-one personal level of counseling with young people. He supports the national work of Mercy Ministries, donating to them a portion of royalties from his critically acclaimed debut album Here With Me, which released in 2007 on Slanted Records.
