When Children Pray: How God Uses the Prayers of a Child

by Cheri Fuller

For Christian parents eager to see their children come closer to the Lord, Cheri Fuller's When Children Pray is a godsend. There's no better testament to the power and effectiveness of children's prayers than these stories of how God answers the prayers of our children and youth. Most important, this book prepares parents to teach their children how to pray -- not merely the mechanics, but understanding and claiming the power of their heavenly Father through prayer. Busy parents and those with questions about their own prayer commitments will find When Children Pray, now in an updated, contemporary cover, especially helpful in passing on a legacy of faith to the next generation.

I've read this book before but I feel a stirring to read it again....good reading to keep in encouraging and modeling prayer for our lives and our children's lives. It's a beautiful mantle of a parent and child carrying together.

I enjoyed it and found some nuggets to share with the family. In comparing it to When Families Pray, I thought the latter was more helpful, with more hands-on for our family.
