One of the best long range ways to grow a praying church is to help families learn to pray. Mothers of young children are often looking for ideas on how to connect better as a family. The Praying Family is an excellent resource that will both bind a family together and develop kids into powerful prayer warriers. As prayer leaders, we recommend buying a copy for your church library, or buy a number of copies for interested parents.
The Praying Family is a valuable resource for developing and keeping a scheduled family prayer life. In addition to the helpful tips and ideas, Kim Butts points out several challenges to becoming a family of prayer and how to meet them based on her personal experience including: - Parents' feelings of inadequacy in teaching their children to pray
- Getting and keeping teenagers involved
- Finding time for a prayer journey in everyone's hectic schedules
- Persevering in prayer
Packed with creative and fun "journeys" that teach prayer concepts, this prayer tool will facilitate a day-by-day journey that will most certainly lead to a lifetime of answered prayer and a greater understanding of the heart of God.
It is also a great tool for children's Sunday school teachers and workers. Its ideas are easily adaptable for this use.
