Summary
Perhaps the greatest gift my parents have ever given me is the gift of growing up in a praying home.
My parents have prayed before meals, before bed, and before every major decision for as long as I can remember. They’ve prayed over me more times than I can count, and I’m eternally grateful to them. That being said, I can think of many years in my own life where prayer was not a priority (and my life 100% reflected that).
I don’t want that same story for my kids, so this week is especially meaningful to me as we talk about raising kids with prayer-filled lives. We will consider not just the “how to” behind prayer but also the “why to.” Prayer is the perfect thing to recommit to in a new year, so join me in praying prayerfulness for our kids this week (quite the mouthful).

| 0:14.4 | Hey, friends, welcome to partner us. |
| 0:16.2 | I'm glad you're here again this week. |
| 0:18.4 | We're praying prayerfulness for our kids. And this is a little bit |
| 0:22.1 | like preaching to the choir when you have people that are coming every week and listening to a |
| 0:25.9 | podcast on praying for your kids and then you're trying to tell them why it's important that our |
| 0:30.3 | kids learn to pray. I'm guessing you guys already know why it's important to pray and why it's |
| 0:34.9 | important that we want our kids to have a good prayer life. |
| 0:38.1 | So I'm going to start with the parenting fail. |
| 0:40.2 | That's the first thing we'll start with today. |
| 0:42.5 | My family recently went on a ski trip over the Christmas New Year's break. |
| 0:46.7 | So we went skiing and let me just preface us by saying my son, my middle son has been |
| 0:51.1 | wanting to snowboard forever to go back and snowboard some more |
| 0:54.7 | we've been before. But he wanted to go do that and our youngest had ever been skiing. So it was |
| 0:58.8 | one of those no good deed goes unpunished because we were like, oh, this is going to be great. |
| 1:02.5 | We're going to take him skiing. And darn if we weren't sick the whole time. I was sick. My husband got sick. One of our kids was sick. It was one of those trips, right? |
| 1:11.4 | But nonetheless, we had a good time and we're driving home, and this is my parenting film. |
| 1:16.2 | We're driving home and we, every time we come back from Colorado, if we drive, there's this one |
| 1:22.1 | gas station where we stop at. And so this particular day, we are driving through Mexico and there's |
| 1:26.6 | this gas station. I look and there's like it's a into Mexico and there's this gas station. |
