Held: A Mother's Journey of Praying for a Prodigal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645397710)

Can your prodigal's journey become your greatest testimony?

Eleanor Formaggio can without a doubt say yes! God shows up in the midst of disappointment, failure and fear. Even as He moves in the lives of our prodigals, He is changing us into who He has called us to be.

Held contains spiritual insights, prayers, and a story that is both painful and hopeful at the same time. While God was looking out for Eleanor's son even when he wandered far, He was taking her on an intensely personal journey as well.

In sharing her story, Eleanor encourages us that we can trust God to lift our loved ones out of the mire at just the right time, and explains why He is careful not to do it a moment too soon. In the waiting, however, we can actively partner with God. By pulling on the rope of prayer we can move mountains, activate angels, and hear Jesus whisper into our own hearts as we wait for our prodigals to return.

This is a mother's story. Packed with strategies and insights, it will empower you to fight for the future of your child and partner with God for the destiny on their life-and yours!
