Liturgies for Parents with Kayla Craig
Latest Episode : January 01, 2024
A Prayer for a New Year
Another year has gone, and we greet a new one with reflective hearts. Parenting, like faith, is a constant remembering. We hope you take some time with us this week for a simple breath prayer to remember God’s constant presence with us and another prayer asking for help in remembering the faithfulness of the God of the past and present. May you remember you are never alone.
Kayla’s newest book, Every Season Sacred, is an invitation to ask big questions, embrace faithful rhythms, and experience God’s mysterious, loving presence together. Get your copy of Every Season Sacred here or wherever books are sold.
