Asha and Missey stop to remember sweet stories from when our children were younger. It’s so amazing to look back at little things they said and did and see how that personality, passion, and interests are shaping their life now as adults. Happy Mother’s Day! Join us for a new Season using the book of Proverbs as our guide to parenting Adult Children

With so much evil in the world it seems like the attacks against our children are coming from all directions- infertility, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts, job loss. But all hope is not lost. Ephesians 6:10-18 tells us the we can put on the full armor of God. We can extinguish those fiery darts we don’t have to be victims and neither do our adult children.

Whether your adult child is starting their first job, moving into their first apartment, or having their first child- each and every milestone is a different blessing from God but can be a real challenge. As you pray for them, do so with patience and understanding. These are big steps!

Have you walked through divorce or marriage difficulty with your adult child? As painful as those moments are, you don’t have to face them alone. Look to God for strength and joy. Listen as Asha and Missey describe your role as a mom and a mother in law. Scripture to use in prayer for our adult children

This episode is a continuation of our conversation as we go through the book, Praying the Scripture for Your Adult Children. As a parent of Adult kids, Missey wonders if she prayed enough when they were little. Asha’s kids are all single but she doesn’t want any one of them to feel pressured to rush into marriage with someone that isn’t truly God’s best. Join us today as we go through the joy and pain of praying for our Adult Children’s Marriage Partner

This chapter discusses the importance of relationships, with others and with God. We have always known that who our children hang out with is who will have the most influence over their lives- but now… as they navigate marriage, new jobs, etc these relationships can affect them forever. Join in to see what you can be praying about

Asha and Missey discuss chapter 3 of the book, Praying the Scriptures for Your Adult Children by Jodie Berndt. Listen is as we discuss chapters 3 entitled, Transitioning through Adulthood. Have you ever wondered why this younger generation does things so differently? They seem to take their time getting to certain milestones, they seem to change their minds about work and school, and to be honest they don’t always see life the way we do. Although they were lent to us, they still belong to God. As you listen, pray the Lord softens your heart. Release your adult children to God- let him convict them of their sins and let him guide them to using their talents and interests. This isn’t an easy phase but it’s a great one!

Join Asha and Missey as they start a new series by going through the book, Praying the Scriptures for Your Adult Children by Jodie Berndt. Ever feel like everyone else’s kids are perfect and your family is the only one struggling. Well that’s not true for anyone, not even Christian families. Listen is as we discuss the 2 chapters entitled, The Battle Begins and Blessing and Releasing Your Child
