Monica SchmelterHolding Out Hope for Your Adult Prodigal
June 24, 2025 ● 26 minShare this episode
When an adult child walks away from their values, faith, or family, the heartbreak can be overwhelming. In this episode, Laine Lawson Craft and I talk directly to parents carrying the silent weight of a prodigal. I invited Laine to join our conversation because she had not one or two, but three prodigals. Laines speaks from her heart and her experience is so encouraging and helpful. Whether your child is emotionally distant, struggling with addiction, or rejecting everything you tried to instill in them, you’re not alone—and you’re not without hope.
Join us as we explore practical ways to stay anchored in love, faith, and resilience. We’ll discuss the importance of healthy boundaries, prayer, community support, and how to keep your heart open without losing yourself in the process. This is a space for honesty, encouragement, and healing—because no story is beyond redemption.
