Introducing Prodigal Prayers
52 Weeks of Praying Over the Prodigal

Have you ever wept and prayed over a loved one who has wandered far from the Lord? Perhaps it’s a child, a sibling, a friend—or even your own heart in a season of drifting. If so, you know the heartache, the waiting, and the temptation to lose hope.

That is why I wrote this new book, Prodigal Prayers: 52 Weeks of Praying Over the Prodigal. This book was born out of my own seasons of praying for prodigals, often with tears, sometimes with faint hope—but always with the deep conviction that God is faithful even when we cannot see what He is doing.

The Sons of Korah: Week 5

Discover the beauty of #Psalm 47--a powerful #psalm of the #SonsOfKorah that calls us to #worship with joy and #devotion. This passage of #Scription reminds us that #God reigns as King over all the earth, ruling with #sovereignty and love. In this blog post, explore how clapping, shouting, and #singing #praises reflect a heart of longing for God’s presence and deep #faith in His power. Find #encouragement to live in awe of His throne and exalt Him as the #Lord Most High in every season of life.

A Devotion and Longing for God
Psalm 47

The story of the Sons of Korah is one of remarkable redemption. Their ancestor, Korah, rebelled against God’s appointed leadership and perished under dramatic judgment (Num. 16). But “the sons of Korah did not die” (Num. 26:11). They lived—and from their lineage came some of the most heartfelt expressions of longing, worship, and devotion in the Psalms.

Though Korah sought to approach God on his own terms, his descendants teach us, through inspired song, what it means to approach God with reverence, humility, and awe. Let’s journey through the 11 psalms attributed to the Sons of Korah—Psalms 42, 44–49, 84, 85, 87, and 88. These psalms reflect a deep yearning for God’s presence and a resilient trust in His goodness, even in times of sorrow and silence.

Recently, I had a divine coffeeshop appointment with a dear friend who couldn’t say enough good things about The Circle Maker by Mark Batterson—and by the time she finished, I had already ordered it on Amazon!

God’s timing is always perfect. The book arrived just in time for the “Covid rest” I didn’t know I needed.

The last several months, I have had to watch and walk alongside someone I love dearly as they go through a prolonged season of hurt, discouragement, and difficulty. It isn’t as simple as one event or circumstance that has brought about this period of pain, but rather a series of situations that have slowly worn this person down.

Thankfully, they haven’t lost faith, but that doesn’t mean they are not still weighed down by what has become a weighty burden. And it has been made all the harder because there doesn’t seem to be an end or easy answers in sight.

That’s the thing about carrying heavy things — we can do fairly well when the duration of bearing the load is short, or we can see that relief is near.
