Prayer is powerful—but sometimes, it can feel overwhelming to know where to begin. In this episode, Elly Marroquin sits down with Nonda Houston, National Director of AG Women, to talk about what it really looks like to be a praying mom in everyday life.

From school drama and family challenges to the weight of injustice and discouragement, Nonda shares honest stories and practical ways to lift our children up in prayer. Together, they explore the beauty of praying Scripture, the importance of standing in the gap, and the strength that comes from pray groups and community.

If you've ever wondered if your prayer matters, this conversation is a reminder that even small beginnings can leave a lasting legacy.
