ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

An Ohio native (and demoralized fan of Cleveland sports teams), Mike attended seminary in Grand Rapids, where he has been stuck every since.  He isn’t complaining, for West Michigan’s many churches and miles of fresh water coastline makes for a fine place to raise a family.  He and his wife, Julie, have three young children, Avery, Landon and Alayna. Because of them, he has no hobbies.

When Mike isn’t playing catch or kck the can with his kids, he can be found teaching theology at Grand Rapids Theological Seminary.  He also enjoys writing books, such as this one, that help Christians to treasure and apply the gospel to their lives.  Nothing is more important, for we’re all going to die.  And then live again!

SHORT BOOK DESCRIPTION:

Other parents may not understand what you’re up against with your prodigal son or daughter, but God understands. He knows what its like to have a world full of prodigals, and He waits for you to bring yours to Him through committed, passionate praying.

Parents can bless their child in no greater way than to pray for his or her salvation. Yet sometimes knowing what to pray can be difficult. Prayers for Prodigals will help you pray for your prodigal child while encouraging you and reminding you of the power of God to answer prayer. Ninety Scripture-based prayers cover emotional and practical challenges faced by parents of prodigals.
Use this book to partner with God, through prayer, to change your child’s eternal future by bringing your son or daughter into a vital relationship with Jesus. Nothing in this world or the next could possibly matter more.
