Liturgies for Parents

May 16, 2022

Ep. 3 : A Prayer for Hearing God

Hearing God doesn’t require us to be in just the right environment and under the perfect conditions. What if we asked to hear God in the ordinary or unexpected? This episode, we read from John 10:27 and offer a prayer for hearing the One who is present in all of the details of our everyday.

Don’t have the words to pray? Now you do. If you're like most parents, you're exhausted. Prayer feels out of reach. But you're not alone.

With short, welcoming episodes, Liturgies for Parents invites parents like you to take a breath and find comfort in the prayers of another. Each week, you'll hear some scripture, a short prayer, and a gentle reminder of God's presence in your life from Kayla Craig, a mom of four and author of To Light Their Way: A Collection of Prayers & Liturgies for Parents.

In a weary world, Liturgies for Parents offers a nuanced and nurturing moment of reprieve, inviting all who are raising kids to breathe and remember that God is with you. Liturgies for Parents will leave you feeling a bit more centered -- and a bit more rooted in God's big love for you, your family, and your neighbors, too.
