Parents cannot keep children protected from the dangers of the world by themselves. Some kids reject Christ outright, some drift away, some accept Christ and follow Him. The best tool that parents have to help their children is prayer. Erwin W. Lutzer gives practical help in A Practical Guide for Praying Parents.

Praying for your kids is something that you know you need to do, but may not know how to do more than just ask God to guide them and keep them safe. Using passages from the Bible, and showing how to use them to form your prayer, the book gives you a basis for going beyond generic and repetitious prayers. This has the added benefit of strengthening your faith as you ask God to help your child.

This book is written in simple language, and is a great read for any parent or grandparent. The information also can be extended to any family member that you want to pray for.
