When The Prodigal Is Your Prodigal - Glorifying God Through the Brokenness of Losing a Child to the World
When The Prodigal Is Your Prodigal - Glorifying God Through the Brokenness of Losing a Child to the World
by Steve & Kim Higginbotham
In this powerful book, Steve and Kim Higginbotham consider a much too common problem in a scriptural and uniquely personal way. Countless hurting Christians have found great hope, encouragement, and comfort through this good study.
This book is not only a great help to those who are hurting, it is a much needed resource for elders and preachers alike.
From the back cover:
"'I would rather attend my son's funeral than to watch him turn his back on God and walk away to never return.'
For those who have ever known the pain of having a prodigal child, the above statement may sound shocking or even inconceivable, but for parents who love their children and fear for their eternal destiny, it Is not an uncommon thought.
This book is personal. It recounts our own son's decision to walk away from God, and how his decision has affected us, our relationship with him, and our relationship with God.
While it has taken time, humility, spiritual growth, and the support of godly friends and confidants, we have finally arrived at a point at which we can share our story in an effort to offer comfort, hope, and understanding to those who are going through the same loss (2 Corinthians 1:3-4).
It is our prayer that God can use 'our story' to provide strength to others and to accentuate the comfort and hope contained within 'the story.'"
