Teaching Children How To Pray And the Reason for It

As a believing parent, grandparent, or other caregiver, you already know the power of prayer and how to pray in faith and trust. Facing life's many challenges leads you to a deep, intuitive knowledge of when it is time to use prayer to nourish your spirit, give praise and thanks, or ask for help and guidance. For children, it might be difficult to understand why prayer is needed; after all, they have only basic needs, and their parents usually fulfill these. In this book, we'll explore strategies and tools to introduce children to prayer and help them understand the how, when, and why of effective and uplifting prayer. We'll also discover how prayer adds to a child's spiritual growth and emotional well-being and address some common questions and challenges children may have in their journey toward a deeper understanding of God and a more connected faith.
