We spoke about how we experienced (or didn't experience) Christian prayer in our families of origin and how we decided to approach it with our own children. We discussed questions like: \nWhat is prayer? Why should we pray if God already knows everything?\nHow can practise both routine and spontaneous prayer?\nHow does God answer prayer? \nHow can we do family prayer when we're not confident?\nWhat should we do if our spouse is not a keen Christian?\nHow can busy parents find time to focus on prayer themselves?\nThis conversation is insightful, practical, encouraging and full of grace for families in every season of life!\nLinks:\nParenting in God's Family: Biblical Wisdom for Everyday Issues, which contains a chapter on 'Bible reading and prayer across the stages of family life' by our guest, Wendy Lin.\nWendy Lin's blog, with book reviews and devotional resources for families, Musings in Adelaide.\nMothers Union Sydney.
