Powerful Prayers for Your Son by Rob Teigen and Joanna Teigen

I don't know about you, but I started praying for my son and our parenting of him when we found out we were expecting. My son is a teenager now and I continue to pray every day for him. I think he needs those prayers now more than ever. Rob and Joanna Teigen have a new book, Powerful Prayers for Your Son, that can guide parents through prayer in all sorts of situations through the year5s as your son grows up and even in to adulthood.

Powerful Prayers for Your Son starts off with an introductory word from Joanna and one from Rob. In these short pages, they introduce themselves and share how this book came about. Following the introduction, there are 77 prayers through the book--prayers that cover your son through all sorts of life situations through the ages and stages of your boy. A few examples of the many prayers included in the book are: when he is looking for God, when he is stressed, when his faith is shaken, when he goes online, when he considers dating, when he is attacked by the enemy, when he has a negative attitude, and when you don't know what to pray. In the midst of the prayers are several real-life prayer stories from other Christians that are uplifting and encouraging reminders that God does hear us as we pray for own sons.

I know Powerful Prayers for Your Son is a book that I will keep  on my Bible study shelf for years to come. If I had a daughter, I would also buy their book, Powerful Prayers for Your Daughter. I like how complete the book is in covering so many situations and topics children face in today's world. I also like that there are some uplifting stories of answered prayer interspersed throughout the book from other real parents facing challenges that have overcome or made it through the challenges with prayer. I also like how each prayer is preceded with Scripture to read before you start praying. I would encourage all parents to get a copy of Powerful Prayers as they parent their children. It kind of feels like someone pulling up alongside you and guiding you through some of the difficulties as you keep your face towards God.

I received this book from the publisher. I was not required to write a positive review.
