My Review:

Kimberley Payne’s latest addition to her lengthy repertoire of bite-size live-by-faith books, Grand Faith: Words of Wisdom to Leave a Spiritual Legacy, come from her experience of becoming a grandmother. She wanted to model her faith for her grandchildren, and reached out to other grandparents for inspiration.
 
With twenty-five interviewees responded to several questions about how they raised their own children, advice, caution, activities, favorite Bible verse and prayer.
 
Payne’s book is both a spiritual how-to and a call to action. She asks her readers to respond to her book and share your own grandparenting stories; to “create a community of wisdom and support.” What a wonderful rallying call.
 
My favorite pearls of wisdom include read God’s word with your biological or “adopted” grands especially age-appropriate Bible versions, pray with and for them constantly; always encourage them. don’t pretend you know everything, and realize you can’t be perfect.
 
One thing I missed was how the author chose these participants. Nevertheless, it’s a great group of special, inspiring women from Canada and the US who offer guidance and enthusiastic support for grandparents everywhere to lead a life worthy of our calling. The author includes a chart of favorite Bible verses and pages of resources to follow up. Grand Faith is a grand addition to your arsenal of faith. I believe parents and future parents would also find much to learn from in the pages.
