Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Omartian offers a follow-up to her million-plus seller The Power of a Praying Parent, focusing this time on praying for adult children. "The truth is," says Omartian, "you never stop being a parent who deeply cares about your child's well-being, no matter what age they are...." She offers 14 things to pray for adult children, including that they find freedom, restoration and wholeness; have a sound mind and right attitude; and be protected and survive in tough times. Each chapter includes Prayer Power-a brief, specific prayer-and Word Power, Scripture verses pertaining to the topic. Fans of Omartian will find more of her chatty, personal style mixed with lists and myriad subtopics throughout; new readers may be put off by repetition and that same chattiness. But all readers will know that Omartian's heart is dedicated to prayer, God's redemptive love and a healthy future for all adult children: "by praying, we can help them to hear from God so He can lead them to do what He wants."
