1: A much needed book if you have a troubled teen
The teen years are difficult for all parents and this book sure did help me! In addition to the christian insight it provides, it has step-by-step instructions on praying for your child. It's definately not just for parents of teens because I wished I would have started sooner!

2: The Power of a Praying Parent
In The Power of a praying Parent, Stormie Omartian writes, "I don't know how to be the perfect parent for my children," I said to God in desperation one day. "I need You to help me raise them."
"God responded by impressing on my heart the following words: 'If you are not covering your children in prayer every day, you are leaving their lives to chance.'"
"What a frightening thought!"
"Then teach me how to pray for my children the way You would have me to, Lord."
"I learned I didn't have to be a perfect parent; I just had to be a praying parent. That was something I COULD do."
In her book, Mrs. Omartian, shares specific prayers that God taught her to pray for every area of her childrens' lives. By doing so, she encourages other parents to do what they CAN do for their children--PRAY! A Bible verse and space for prayer notes are included with each prayer so that the reader can include specific prayers for their children. I found this helpful not only for me to pray for my adult children but for my grandchildren as well.

3: The Power of a Praying Parent
The Power of a Praying?? Parent Deluxe Edition
They say there isn't a manual for raising our kids. However, I believe this book should be handed out as you leave the hospital with your newborn! I have learned so much from reading and re-reading this book over the past few years. It is practical and easy to read. I believe in the power of prayer but wasn't always sure how to do it. This book touches on all the important aspects of a childs life. Like Stormie says, "we can't leave our kids lives to chance..."
