Jay Payleitner’s (’79) 14th book was just released. 52 Things to Pray for Your Kids helps Moms and Dads (and children) see prayer as a joy, not a burden. It’s a gentle reminder to pray for their backyard treehouse, teammates, siblings, and future spouse.

As parents, we can pray rocking, pray singing, pray they get caught, and pray like Jesus did. Like all the “52 Things” books published by Harvest House Publishers, it’s an easy read that leaves you encouraged, not overwhelmed. You can get a copy from Jay, your favorite bookstore, or Amazon.

Jay is the author of 12 books including the best-selling 52 Things Kids Need from a Dad. A recent release from Harvest House Publishers is 52 Things Wives Need from Their Husband.  A new gift book for graduates from Ellie Claire titled If God Gave Your Graduation Speech should be a best seller every May for the next several years.

Jay and his high school sweetheart, Rita, have four sons, one daughter, three daughters-in-law (and an occasional foster baby) and live in St. Charles, Illinois. In May 2013, Jackson David Payleitner gave Jay a new title, “Gramps.”
