10 for 10: Standing Together in Prayer
by Terri Sherrow
We’re fighting a spiritual war with an enemy whose primary tactic is deception, and our grandchildren are his targets. Standing in the gap and praying in unity is powerful and ensures his defeat. With this in mind, Christian Grandparenting Network has developed a 10-week plan for equipping grandparents to stand united in prayer for their grandchildren.
10 for 10 provides grandparents with ten weeks of daily Scripture-based prayer prompts to help them pray with intention. Praying God’s Word through scripture helps to focus the mind, is assurance that we are following His will, and makes us stronger together as we encourage one another.

Gospel-Centered Grandparenting Video Series

We love being grandparents, don’t we? Yet, how many of us have received training from the Bible on what God’s calling on us grandparents actually involves? In this four-part video series on “Gospel Centered Grandparenting” our commitment to you is to provide:

  • Clear biblical teaching on the mission God has given us grandparents
  • Hope in seeing how the gospel can shape the relationships we have with our grandchildren and their parents
  • Help in giving practical ideas on how to improve and grow those family relationships

Session 1: What kind of training from God’s Word have you received on the ministry of grandparenting? Over 99% of Christian grandparents would say, “None!” Well, in this first session Dr. McCall will introduce us to God’s calling on us grandparents, providing hope and help from God’s Word.
Session 2: Talking to our grandchildren about being right with God is so important — but why is that important, and how do we talk to them about salvation? In this session we’ll look for clarity from the Bible in answering these eternally-important questions.
Session 3: Have you ever wondered what your grandchildren will say at your funeral about the impact you had on their lives? In this session we’ll see in the Bible how we grandparents can live our daily lives before our grandchildren in a way that demonstrates a contagious passion for Christ and his gospel.
Session 4: How might the gospel get such a grip on the hearts of our grandchildren that they want to live passionately and perseveringly for Christ, come what may in this increasingly-hostile world? What’s our role as grandparents in showing them the way of valuing Christ more than everything this world has to offer?

(NOTE: Larry McCall and Walking Like Jesus Ministries are glad to serve individual grandparents and small groups of grandparents by offering these video sessions free of charge. If, however, you would like to support the work of this ministry and “pay it forward,” donations are much appreciated. For churches, may we suggest a dollar per member — $100 for church size of 100, $200 for church size of 200, etc.? Your gifts can be given electronically at http://www.wljministries.org/support.
