FROM AMISH NANNY TO BRIDE? After her sweetheart's betrayal, Ruthy Mummert leaves behind the small-town gossip of her Amish community for the first opportunity she can find: a housekeeper position in faraway LaGrange County, Indiana. Ruthy didn't realize the job meant caring for ten children--and for their handsome widowed father. To Levi Zook's mind, Ruthy is too young and too pretty to be anyone's housekeeper. A marriage of convenience will protect her reputation and give his children the security they dearly need. But it could also give them the courage to grasp a new chance at happiness--if Ruthy is willing to risk her wounded heart once more.

Most Christian parents pray for their children, but many don't know how to pray effectively and powerfully. Now, from the co-author of A Woman's Guide to Spiritual Warfare and The Spiritual Warrior's Prayer Guide, comes this step-by-step guide to praying faithfully and diligently for precious sons and daughters. The first step is to surrender growing children to the Lord, who longs to partner with parents to raise godly women and men. Then, once parents have invited the Holy Spirit into their child's growth and development, they can pray for their child's specific needs. Readers will learn how to pray for their children's friends, teachers and pastors, and to intercede when their sons or daughters are under spiritual attack. Stepparents and adoptive parents will find prayer guidance for their special circumstances, and mothers and fathers of severely ill children will discover how to pray through the most difficult situations a parent can face. When moms and dads covenant with God to be a household of faith, they will see Him act in their children's lives beyond what they could ever dream!

Before turning to Jesus, author John Trent harbored resentment and hatred toward his alcoholic father for years.

Since then, John has shown millions of families how to break the cycle of rejection and bless one another. What are the 5 Elements of the Blessing? But what exactly does it mean to give a blessing?
