In this refreshing conversation, we welcome Erica Renaud, a passionate speaker and author of Pray with Me: Help Your Children Engage in Authentic and Powerful Prayer. Erica shares her insights on how to invite children into prayer without manipulation or obligation. We discuss creative ways to approach prayer that help kids see God as more than just a gift-giver, and explore how parents’ own hang-ups can impact their children’s relationship with prayer.
Erica is a dynamic speaker and writer, passionate about equipping families to connect with God through prayer. As the founder of two ongoing prayer initiatives and an active leader in her local church, Erica is dedicated to fostering authentic worship experiences. She is the mother of five children and balances her ministry with family life, recently transitioning to teaching art at a local Christian school. Her first book, Pray with Me, was released in April 2023 and serves as a guide for parents, grandparents, and children’s ministry leaders.
Join us as we explore how to cultivate a rich prayer life in our families and create lasting connections with God. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or involved in children’s ministry, this episode is filled with valuable insights and encouragement.
