31 Days of Prayer for My Child: A Parent's Guide

Front Cover
Baker Books, Jan 1, 2005 - Religion - 128 pages
Between sibling rivalry, keeping children safe, and teaching their kids about Jesus, sometimes parents just want to scream for help!

Well, help is here. Authors Susan Alexander Yates and daughter, Allison Yates Gaskins, are mothers themselves and know firsthand the worrisome responsibilities of child-rearing. As parents, they also know the importance of praying for and with their children, whether or not they know how or where to begin. With all this in mind, Yates and Gaskins have creatively written a simple book that guides parents through thirty-one prayers about down-to-earth issues they face with their children. Organized by day or topic, this book makes it easy for parents to tell God how they're feeling and to ask for his guidance in their lives and the lives of their children.
