Help! I Have a Prodigal

Help! I have a Prodigal! If you are not in this situation right now, the chances are you will be in the future. When we think of prodigals, we think of our children, but prodigals come in our relationships with people, extended family, and church family. Judy Slegh has taken her years of prayer ministry and given us brief insight into the emotional, spiritual, and physical toll a prodigal can extract from a close walk with the Lord. Judy leads the reader through gaining insight into their situation while eliminating the need to spend countless hours on a Christian therapist's couch. If you are open to encountering the healing work of Father God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, Judy leads us there with a few illustrations, questions, and suggested prayers. Prodigal or not, this work is helpful to recovery and getting back on track in your faith walk with a loving triune God, ruler of the seen and unseen universe.

I have a Prodigal! is a phenomenal example of how to pray for our loved ones and stay sane in the midst of life situations that are beyond our control. This book reveals the essential understanding of one's own hurts and wounds and how they affect our thinking, emotions, and relationships. Judy explains how to surrender our fears and worries in parenthood by placing our trust in God, and offers a practical approach to spiritual victory through prayer and biblical truths. Dr. Jessica Rothmeyer PhD in Clinical Christian Counseling, MA in Marriage and Family Therapy, Divine Marriage Center The book you hold in your hands is a guide filled with teaching and activation to help those who have prodigals. Having loved a prodigal into health, Judy shares from her personal experience and wisdom gained from her thousands of hours in prayer ministry. This book leads the reader from feelings of being a guilt-and shame-filled victim weighed down by their prodigal's situation into feeling free from their prodigal's choices. I have known Judy and observed her work in setting captives free for several years. She uses her great teaching and instructional gift to prayerfully walk the reader through Spirit-led exercises to bring freedom for themselves and their prodigal. I highly recommend this book as a guide to personal freedom. Dave Weigel Pastor of Living Waters Church, Elk River, MN
