You've made it! Welcome to Week 4 of our family prayer practice—and this one may be the most transformational yet. This week, we’re focusing on praying for others, using Matthew 6:13 and the life of Jesus as our guide. He didn’t just pray for friends—He prayed for His enemies, for His disciples, and for people who didn’t yet know Him. What a powerful model for our children to follow.

Juli shares simple but meaningful ways to help your kids intercede for others—from whiteboard prayer lists to breath prayers to scripture-based intercession. Whether you're praying as a family or helping older kids develop their own rhythms, this practice will help build empathy, compassion, and a Christlike mindset.

📖 Verse Focus: “Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.”
