75 | Teaching Your Teen Son to Pray: Will He Know to Turn to God?

We want our sons to know they can come to us when they’re worried, hurting, or unsure what to do. But as they grow, there will be things they don’t share with us—and times when Mom simply won’t have the answer.

So will our sons know they can turn to God?

In this episode of Raising Boys with Purpose™, we’re talking about teaching our sons to pray and helping them build a relationship with God that becomes their own. Our boys need to know they can take their worries, decisions, fears, and needs to Him, even when they aren’t ready to talk about them with us.

We’ll talk about helping our sons know and trust God’s promises, teaching them to pray for wisdom and protection, and encouraging them when the answer to prayer isn’t what they expected.

As Christian moms raising boys, we won’t always know everything our sons are carrying. But we can keep reminding them that God does—and help them learn to turn to Him throughout every season of their lives.
