September 7, 2014

Christian Grandparenting Network is asking grandparents all over the world to unite in prayer for their grandchildren on Sunday, September 7, 2014. This date is the official United States National Grandparents Day designated by a Senate proclamation signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1978.

Sign up to become a participant in the worldwide movement to urgently pray for our grandchildren on September 7, 2014.

“. . .   all the believers lifted their voices together in prayer to God . . .“ Acts 4:24 (NLT)

Thank you for joining thousands of grandparents around the world to stand in the gap for their grandchildren on the third annual Grandparents Day of Prayer on September 7, 2014. Just as Esther stood in the gap for her people, grandparents can stand in the gap with prayer for their grandchildren, not only on September 7 but everyday. As a thank you gift for linking arms and going to battle for the sake of the next generation and making Grandparents Day of Prayer a high priority you will receive an email with download link to a copy of an excerpt from my book on prayer entitled Grandparenting with a Purpose: Effective Ways to Pray for Your Grandchildren. Entitled, Communicate Your Faith, I hope you will find this a useful tool in your own prayer life.

We also need your help to promote this important event calling grandparents to participate in prayer for their grandchildren in our post-Christian era. Will you check out the resources in the right sidebar for suggestions to see how you can help us promote and organize this event in your church or community?

Finding Peace in All Circumstances

Finding Peace in All Circumstances

I believe that by God’s grace and mercy, He allows trials to come into our lives. Trials create an opportunity for God to work in us to become more like Christ. Paul tells us in Romans 5:3-5 that suffering produces patience, perseverance, character, and hope. Many people believe that once you become a Christian it should be smooth sailing from there on out. But is that really what God promises us? 

Traditions, Influence, and Personal Peace

Traditions, Influence, and Personal Peace

As a grandparent, you find yourself in a ringside seat watching as your own children—the parents of your grandkids— frantically, lovingly, and sometimes methodically devote themselves to surviving the here and now. Certainly, you might prudently come alongside those new or struggling parents with encouragement, small gestures, well-timed visits, labors of love, gentle insights, and an occasional financial investment. But while mom and dad think short term, grandma and grandpa have the luxury of thinking long term. That’s the key to building your legacy and orchestrating opportunities to share spiritual truth.

Fruit of the Spirit – Peace

Fruit of the Spirit – Peace

One of the strongest human desires is for peace, whether it be peace in our families, peace with our neighbors, peace with our co-workers, peace between nations, or even peace within our own minds. There are many situations in our life and in the world that make us feel we have no peace. At times our life seems to be a rocky place making us feel anxious, frustrated, and living in chaos. This is when we take a moment and be still. It is when we reflect on God and who he is. As we focus on the peace offered by the fruit of his Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23), the Holy Spirit is with us and the overwhelming peace of God is in us.
