Growing Great Kids was a phenomenal book. I felt as though I was sitting in the author Kate Battistelli’s living room sipping coffee while chatting about parenting. Most parenting books I have read, have left me clueless and overwhelmed as to where to begin to parent in a Godly way. After reading Kate’s book, I feel more encouraged and equipped to parent my daughter in a way that will aide  in her journey towards finding  God’s purpose for her life. Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisors they succeed. Proverbs 15:22. Within the chapters of this book is wisdom from many great ad
visors each with a different pearl of wisdom to add. Also Francesca Battistelli gives an awesome testimony to her mother’s heart calling her mom her favorite woman in the world. To me that is breathtakingly beautiful. Each chapter was written based on various personal experiences. Two of my favorite parts of the book are the Questions to ask yourself and the specific prayers both of which are located at the conclusion of each chapter . The questions challenged me to re-evaluate how I am parenting. The prayers made me realize that I need to be more specific in how I pray for my daughter. As pointed out inside the book “you have not because you ask not.” We have to go boldly before the throne for our children. I also became aware of the fact that it’s never to early to pray for your child’s future spouse and even children. ” It only takes the faith of a mustard seed to move mountains and change lives. And that faith, more than anything else, grows great kids!” says Kate. As parents God calls us to invest in our children in daily actions and prayer.
