Praying for Your Child and Their...

Having a child has been described as having your heart exist outside your body. We worry for them, have hopes for them, and grieve alongside them, but often we aren't in a practice of praying for them. It can be hard to find a balance of praying for our own desires for our kids while still feeling like we are honoring their free will and God's eternal will. In this class, we will explore the role of prayer in a parent's life: how we can articulate our hopes and worries in prayer and simultaneously lay them before God, and how we can build a community practice of praying for the children in our lives that we care for.
