Cross the generations, building relationships with grandchildren, supporting their parents and praying passionately for them.
Whether they are far away or in your local church, whether they are your biological grandchildren or someone else's, there is a role for the older generation to play in raising children to know Christ.
Hear about the stretch to understand their passions, the deep ache of love for them and the trans-Atlantic conferences, with only a passing mention of knitting.
