Our young men and young women are encouraged to “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations.” Parents have a solemn responsibility to prepare and arm their children against the sophistries and wisdom of the world and to prepare them to serve with power and authority. Parents are the most powerful forces for good on the earth to prepare our young people to serve. In these turbulent times, missionaries must be well prepared for the struggles inherent in the great work they will undertake. And who better to help them hit the ground running than their own parents? With humor and insight, authors Brad and Sandy Harris give parents an insider account of what happens in the lives of new missionaries struggling to adjust, and they share practical suggestions for making that transition smoother. In these pages you will find ways to help your son or daughter make minor shifts in focus that can lead to major course corrections. A Parent’s Guide to Raising Successful Missionaries is an invaluable collection of resources and ideas shared by mission presidents, MTC presidents, and returned missionaries. This important reference is a must-have for parents striving to raise children who are well prepared for missionary service and for life.
