Synopsis

Take heart! God's grace is for prodigal children (and parents too).

When eighteen-year-old Barbara rejects her parents' Christianity, God's grace pursues all three—through grief and conflict to joyful reconciliation. This honest, vulnerable account, written by father and daughter, offers invaluable lessons for parents and children at any age or stage—and for anyone with a prodigal loved one—showing how struggles may be faced with humility, courage, and hope.

This third edition features a new foreword from Barbara Miller Juliani.

Could hardly put this down. This has the most honest account of how to parent a prodigal wrongly and then how God's grace turned the parents around so that they could truely love their daughter through many painful times for all of them. I love that we get both father's and daughter's perspective. I......more
