Faith and Healing for Families
Welcome to the Warfare Parenting podcast, where we bring you real-life stories of faith, hope, and healing for families. In this episode titled "Faith and Healing for Families," we dive into a powerful conversation about the struggles of parenting prodigals. Laine Lawson Craft and Monica Schmelter share personal experiences and stories of hope, discussing how faith can turn things around for families facing crises when a child abandons the faith they were raised with. Hear about the transformative power of God's intervention in the lives of three children, offering encouragement and tangible examples of how God can bring prodigals back home. Join us as we explore the path to healing and hope together. Laine Lawson Craft's life took a dark turn when her son, Stephen, fell into a 15-year struggle with drug addiction. However, a chance encounter with an Uber driver, who happened to be a pastor, changed everything. The Uber driver felt compelled to pray for Stephen, and as he prayed, the presence of God filled the car, leading to a powerful transformation in Stephen's life. This experience has inspired Laine to share a message of hope, emphasizing that Stephen didn't have to clean up his life for God to rescue him.
