The Authors.

“Bless This House moves prayer from a vaguely pious good intention that most parents have into the actual rough-and-tumble of children and parents growing up together.  With wit and wisdom, Gregory and Suzanne Wolfe explore the world of family as the most obvious place to pray and to learn to pray.”--Eugene H. Peterson, author, The Message

“Gregory and Suzanne Wolfe have written a rich and inviting treatment of family prayer. Focused on ways to teach children to pray, Bless This House is a fine commentary on prayer for everyone.” --Emilie Griffin, author, Doors Into Prayer: An Invitation
