Redeeming the Prodigal Years

Book excerpt: More than a parenting guide, Redeeming the Prodigal Years is written for Moms and Dads who question, 'what did I do wrong' and 'where is God'? Through the personal journey of the author, parents will realize that God is at work in their lives as well as their child's. Through the wisdom of God's Word, parents can experience His presence like never before and see Him as the One Who redeems wasted years of rebellion and gives life abundant. "If you need compassionate, biblically-based material for parents with "prodigal" children, you've found it! Avoiding easy answers and shallow platitudes, Nahm's Redeeming the Prodigal Years provides practical encouragement steeped in abundant mercy. This work is a valuable resource for individuals or groups and is destined to become a classic." Sandra D. Wilson, PhD Seminary Professor and Author "In Redeeming the Prodigal Years Carol Nahm reflects a counselor's heart in touching the pain of those who have lost a relationship with their adult children. With wisdom from the Scriptures and from her own painful journey Nahm helps grieving parents navigate through the anguish with the hope that comes only from the healing touch of our savior." Dr. Darryl DelHousaye President of Phoenix Seminary Carol A. Nahm, MDiv, serves the Christian community as a Bible study teacher and Christian counselor. It was through her own parenting experiences with prodigal children that God led her to develop a ministry to parents who also wait for their children to come home.
