If you were to study the lives of Christian men and women who greatly and faithfully served the Lord, you would find a common thread--their parents diligently prayed for them. We see this in the life of John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. His mother, Susanna, often spoke of how the power of "persistent and prevailing prayer" worked mightily in the lives of her nineteen children. (She was the original Duggar!)When the great missionary Hudson Taylor was eighteen years-old, he read a gospel tract. For days he couldn't shake off its message. Finally, falling to his knees, he accepted Christ as his Savior. When Hudson told his mother the good news, she said, "I already know. Ten days ago, the very date on which you tell me you read that tract, I spent the entire afternoon in prayer for you..."Because of the tremendous power of prayer, I strongly urge you to be constantly interceding for your children. Pray for them to desire more of God, to seek His face, to truly do amazing things for Him, to love Him with all their heart, and to make a difference right where they are today.This book is not meant to be a rote prayer book where you recite these same words again and again. No, it is designed as a starting point, a place for you to begin a mighty prayer life for and with your family. Using over fifty different names for God, along with two hundred plus Scripture references, I hope this book will instill in you a passion to pray and pray boldly.It is my prayer that the Holy Spirit will use the prayers written here to spur the prayers you will write and use for years and years to come. Then, one day, when someone asks your grown child what enabled him or her to be used so effectively for the Kingdom, that child will respond, "My parents prayed for me, prayed for me, and then prayed for me some more."

Now an ECPA Best Seller—Kari Kampakis's Love Her Well gives moms ten practical tips for how to build strong and lasting relationships with their daughters. For many women, having a baby girl is a dream come true. But as girls grow up, the narrative of innocence and joy changes to one of dread as moms are told, "Just wait until she's a teenager!" and handed a disheartening and too-often-true script about a daughter's teenage season of life. Author, blogger, and mom to four daughters Kari Kampakis thinks it's time to change the narrative and mind-set that leads moms to parent teen girls with a spirit of defeat instead of strength. Love Her Well isn't a guide to help mothers "fix" their daughters or make them behave. It's about a mom's journey, doing the heart-work necessary to love a teenager while still being a steady, supportive parent. Kari offers wisdom about how moms can: Choose their words and timing carefully. Listen and empathize with her teen's world. See the good, and love her for who she is. Take care of themselves and find a support system in the process. By working on the foundation, habits, and dynamics of the relationship; mothers can connect with their teen daughters and earn a voice in their lives that allows moms to offer guidance, love, wisdom, and emotional support. Kari gives mothers hope, wisdom, and a reminder that all things are possible through God, who is the source of the guidance and clarity they need in order to grow strong relationships with their daughters at every age—especially during the critical teen years.
