• Are you a mother of boys who often finds herself wanting to wave the white flag in defeat?
  • Do they drain you, overwhelm you, steal your heart, break your heart and cause you more anxiety than you ever dreamed possible?
  • Do you long to fight pro-actively for your boys, but just don’t know how to get ahead of the daily battle?

If so, you’re not alone.

Pray passionately and purposefully for the hearts of your sons with the MOB Society in the month of October.

It’s been three years since our community last joined together in collective prayer for our sons. Prayer is the most important, most vital, most life-giving part of our parenting. Unfortunately, it’s also the most overlooked. Here’s the truth:

The best way a mom can enter the battle for the heart of her son is on her knees.

There are so many books out there today on the topic of parenting boys that I can’t count them. Nor do I have time to read them all. But even if I did, reading these books and putting the solid tools in them to work still doesn’t come with guarantees.

Knowing this, it becomes quite clear that there is only one thing we can do…

Plead with God.

Pray.

Today, I challenge you to pray passionately and purposefully for the hearts of your sons with the MOB Society in the month of October.

Register for the fall edition of 21 Days of Prayer for Sons, and…

  • Join with a community of thousands of boymoms just like you crying out to God for their sons.
  • Learn to cover, not hover.
  • Experience the value of praying intentionally for your sons.
  • Enjoy proactive mothering, as you seek God for your son’s every need.

Here’s how to join:

This challenge is based on the book Praying for Boys: Asking God for the Things They Need Most.
