Synopsis

Some wounds don’t come from the world.
They come from the pews.

If you grew up in church…
If you are a preacher’s kid…
If you are a parent in ministry trying to balance calling and family…

This book is for you.

Prodigals in the Pew speaks to the silent struggles many families face behind the scenes of ministry—the pressure, the expectations, the unspoken pain, and the longing to be seen beyond the title.

In this powerful and transparent book, Miranda-Patrice Baker explores:

• The emotional weight carried by preacher’s kids (PKs)
• The tension between ministry and parenting
• Church hurt that often goes unaddressed
• The journey back to God through healing—not performance

This is not a book about abandoning faith.
It’s about rebuilding it the right way.

You’ll discover how to:
Reconnect with your children without pressure
Create space for honesty and healing
Break cycles of silence and expectation
Hear God’s voice personally—not just through others

Whether you are a ministry leader, a parent, or someone who has quietly struggled in church spaces, this book will remind you:

You are not alone.
You are not forgotten.
And your story still matters.

If you’ve ever felt unseen in the place that was supposed to feel like home, this book is for you.
