When a Child Wanders

Now in paperback!

Where can parents with wayward children turn for hope?

Wandering children and the trail of attendant sorrows are no respecter of persons. They make their way into the families of the rich and poor, active and less active, functional and dysfunctional. This book faces head-on the reality that sometimes things simply don’t turn out as we had planned. Robert Millet uncovers the doctrinal basis for hope when a loved one forsakes the faith. Focusing on the scriptural and prophetic promises given to those who have received the blessings of the gospel covenant – particularly the powerful blessings of temple sealing – he offers real peace here and sustaining faith in the future.

Robert L. Millet, professor of ancient scripture and former dean of the College of Religious Education at BYU, is a widely respected speaker and author. He has authored or co-authored numerous books, including The Mormon Faith; The Life Beyond; and Grace Works.
