HELP! My child is an adult!
I don't have the control I once had...
My Child isn't doing what I thought he/she would do...
If I believe in a good God, why do I struggle to trust him with my kids? 
So many questions when we launch children into the world and it looks different than what we expected. This week on the show my guest, Katie Dunn and I talk about the changes we face when our children become adults. 
You will be encouraged, understood and know you are in good company after hearing this episode.
