How GRANDPARENTS CAN IMPACT THE WORLD?It is estimated that there are over 30 million Christian grandparents. We have reached a time in history when the grandparents must rise as one to cry to God.  I believe if 30 million Christian Grandparents who believe in the power of prayer and deliberately praying the enemy will be crushed. Satan is relentless in his aggressive attack to desensitize our children to truth and righteousness. This is a spiritual battle requiring spiritual weapons. Our grandchildren and their parents not only need our support, but they also need our earnest and united prayers. They need our united prayer, a genuine, unified prayer for our hope and dreams for the next generation to be realized.

Ken R. Canfield PhD., Founder, National Association for Grandparenting and Grands Matter! “There is a spiritual renaissance brewing in North America and at the core of this renewal are praying grandparents.  As is the case in every major awakening in past centuries, humble and passionate prayer is a catalyst, which spiritually connects generations.  That’s why I highly recommend Lillian Penner’s book, Grandparenting with a Purpose: Effective Ways to Pray for your Grandchildren.  It is a straightforward and practical guide to remind us all to pray.  It has inspired me.  For any grandparent who hungers for supernatural strength and insight, and who labors on behalf of their children and grandchildren this book is a must-read”     

The “Revised and Expanded” Grandparenting with a Purpose, Effective Ways to Pray for Your Grandchildren is designed to encourage and equip grandparents to intentionally pray for their grandchildren and their parents.

I am grateful many of you have previously purchased the original Grandparenting with a Purpose: Effective Ways to Pray for your Grandchildren.  Since I have had many requests for a study guide to go with the chapters.  I have expanded the book with additional chapters and a study guide for each chapter, which you will find useful.

•    I have found there are many hurting estranged grandparents today with heavy hearts, so I am addressing that issue in a chapter. Is your grandparenting Painful or a blessing?

•    I include a section looking at a view of the culture our grandchildren and their parents are navigating today. 

•    God’s Design for grandparenting plus several additional chapters and Scriptures to Pray for Teens and Scriptures for Grandparents to pray for themselves.

The book retails for $14.99, however, it is available for a discounted price of $15.00, including shipping and handling costs in the U. S. for a limited time.  A bonus of Scriptural Prayer resource will be included with your purchase. The book will be available in EBook format for $4.99 for those who would prefer the EBook format or live outside the U. S. to save on shipping costs later this month.

This book will challenge you and give you resources for this spiritual battle with the enemy. It will show you how to be an intentional disciple-maker and prayer warrior to impact the next generation.
