With Mother's Day around the corner, Christian publishers are releasing a flurry of titles to give to Dear Old Mom. In Praying the Scriptures for Your Children: Discover How to Pray God's Will for Their Lives, Jodie Berndt delivers an unusual twist on the traditional parenting-with-the-Bible advice. In the style of Bruce Wilkinson's The Prayer of Jabez, she demonstrates how moms can use various passages from Scripture to pray more effectively for their kids. Her ""prayers you can use"" sections are genuinely helpful, with well-chosen biblical verses and thoughtful commentary. ( Apr.)
