You will be encouraged and inspired as she reminds you of these very important thoughts you need to regularly keep before you.

The battle for our children’s life should be fought on our knees! Prayer is the most important part of rearing our children. Why? Because God can do what we cannot do.

Kathie will give you 10 things to ask yourself to see if you are staying on track with your priorities.
