Summary

Do you suffer the pain of a loved one gone astray? Quin Sherrer and Ruthanne Garlock have both kept a light in the window for the return of prodigal children. But they did not wait passively, helplessly wringing their hands, paralyzed by fear and despair. Instead, they battled for their children in prayer and trusting that, ultimately, almighty God would intervene, returning the prodigals to their parents' arms. The enemy uses many worldly temptations to lure our young people away from their Christian values and upbringing. Praying Prodigals Home reminds us that for those of faith, victory is always within our grasp and that our loved ones are eternally dear to His heart. Book jacket.
