Blessing Your Children: Give the Gift that Will Change Their Lives Forever
Overview
The seeds you plant in the lives of your children will either grow into good, healthy fruit or weeds that can choke out their potential and promise. But if you’re like many parents, grandparents, and mentors, you may not always know how to speak life into a child or teen. In Blessing Your Children, Jack Hayford shares his biblical knowledge and firsthand experience to show you how to bless the children in your life with words of encouragement, nurture, protection, and challenge. He reveals Jesus’ tender heart for children and offers a biblical blueprint for passing on God’s promises to future generations.
