When Moms Pray — Shaping Generations through Intercession

Prayer is powerful—but sometimes, it can feel overwhelming to know where to begin. In this episode, Elly Marroquin sits down with Nonda Houston, National Director of AG Women, to talk about what it really looks like to be a praying mom in everyday life. From school drama and family challenges to the weight of injustice and discouragement, Nonda shares honest stories and practical ways to lift our children up in prayer. Together, they explore the beauty of praying Scripture, the importance of standing in the gap, and the strength that comes from pray groups and community.  If you've ever wondered if your prayer matters, this conversation is a reminder that even small beginnings can leave a lasting legacy. ---------------------------------------------- TIME STAMPS: 00:00:00 Welcome & Guest Intro 00:01:06 Meet Nonda 00:03:02 Why Matters 00:04:05 Conversations with God 00:04:44 Praying Scripture Over Our Kids 00:07:40 Knocking on Heaven's Door 00:09:07 Praying through School Drama 00:13:07 Standing in the Gap 00:18:05 What Does a Praying Mom Look Like? 00:20:56 Conquering False Expectations 00:24:55 Finding Strength in Prayer Groups & Partners 00:28:49 When You Feel Defeated or Discouraged 00:34:15 Teaching the Next Generation to Pray 00:37:37 Small Beginnings, Lasting Legacy 00:42:15 Closing                                                                               ---------------------------------------------- Follow Ignite Parenting Instagram | @Ignite.Parenting Facebook | Ignite Parenting Website | www.igniteparenting.com    Follow AG Women Instagram | @agwomens Facebook | AG Women Website | www.women.ag.org
