My brother has asked me to go to church randomly for 20 years. He caught me on the right day and I said yes. Keep trying! Great advice.

This is good advice even as someone who’s the only one saved in my family whose hearts are hardened and have drawn a boundary asking me to not bring up “religion”. It’s been so hard for me because a. I can’t be my full self with them since Jesus is a huge part of who I am, and b. I feel like I’m failing them and God by not continuing to evangelize. But every time I’d try, I felt like I was turning them off from Jesus even more, so it was counterintuitive.

Parents, I want to offer you some encouragement. So, I walked away for just about 20 years. I was living for the world, myself, I was prideful, vulgar, greedy, short-tempered, immoral and justifying pretty much every sin under the sun. It started as a teenager, got worse in college, and I was spiritually blind for all of my 20s and first half of 30s. Then one day in November 2024, I was dealing with a hard time and felt hopeless and didn't know what to do. In that moment, I remembered my upbringing in church and Christian school and the God I once knew. I called on Him and just begged Him to help me, admitting I didn't know what to do. I was asking for help for that one thing, but our God who does immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20) took that cry for help literally, and He answered me...everywhere. Not only did He address that issue, but He started transforming my whole life. December of 2024 was when I got the desire to read the Bible, by March 2025, I thought I'd check out church. In May of 2025, I prayed to Jesus in surrender and repentance. Since then, I have continued to grow deeper in my relationship with Jesus, and without even consciously trying, I've seen my road rage disappear, I stopped swearing, I lost 30 lbs, I lost my taste for alcohol, He has changed my heart and my life. Don't ever stop praying for your children! Two years ago, I was completely lost, but He found me. He can do the same for your prodigal children. Praying for you all! ❤️❤️

I am literally mourning my son right now and he’s alive. He has been to rehab twice and just relapsed again. I can’t convince him he can’t do this without Jesus. I feel helpless.

I came back to God at 47 after 25 years of destroying my life. It’s been 3 year of Jesus being back in my life, I feel peace I haven’t felt in decades. Gods love is amazing! 🙏🏻❤️✝️

i'd say, pray for Him unceasingly. Stop with the Bible reading&go deep into prayers for Him. He will come out victorious. You have tried and done your part, now leave the doing to God

I was just prying for my daughter who just converted to Islam - and this is the first thing that popped up when I opened the app. Coincidence or Devine, I know which way I lean, but I really needed to hear this. Especially when I was just begging our Father for some guidance. Thank you. Your work through God has just blessed a hopeless mom in Lebanon TN. Blessings in Christ to you and your family.

I’m the prodigal son, let it be and pray. My mom did this for 15y, from my teens up to my late 20’s. I’m back stronger than never, even though I fall, I come back stronger

I love what you had to say here. I've got the same issue with my 28 year old daughter. the difference is I wasn't in my faith when I had her so she wasn't raised to love Jesus. I do feel incredible guilt and feel like I'm the reason. if theres any more advice that would be great but what you say here is incredible. Thank you

I have been married to my husband for 20 years. I was born again and baptized and he didn’t believe in Jesus. I started watching the chosen and it made me crave God’s word. I never fully understood or read my bible since our church closed. My relationship with him was strained for so long until i walked back to Jesus. Now our marriage is stronger and we talk about the bible. I watch lakepoint podcasts on YouTube next to him and catch him watching and listening and he is starting to show a desire for God’s word. Never stop planting those mustard seeds and trust Jesus to nurture them so they grow because they will.
