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.
