Book of the Week: The Power of Praying for Your Adult Children


My friend, Pamela, told me about this book and I’ve been reading and re-reading it all summer.   I used to think that once my kids were grown…and flown…that parenting would be finished.   I was oh.so.wrong!

  • career choices and sense of purpose
  • marriages and other vital relationships
  • parenting skills and leadership
  • struggles, addictions, or emotional trials
  • faith commitment and prayer life

It is comforting for me to believe in the power of God working through my prayers.… Read More »
