We are continuing on with season three by focusing in on prayer, specifically with our children. My engaging guest Erica Renaud recently published a book on this topic and what she shares will change your perspective on praying with children.

Abiding in Christ while Praying with Children

In this episode we discussed:

• • the story behind her book’s origins and how the Lord led her to pray and worship with her children
  • 5 qualities of the heart we desire for our children as they grow their faith through prayer
  • shaping conversations with our kids to include challenging subjects from the Bible
  • how to abide in Christ more closely when praying with your children

Stay tuned for Friday’s complimentary episode when I deep dive into Daniel 3:16-18: “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, ‘King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up’” (NIV).
