Sowing a Hidden Seed
A 31-Day Prayer Devotional by Brook Mosser
How do I pray for my children?
That question was the starting point for this devotional — born not out of expertise, but out of necessity. Sowing a Hidden Seed is a 31-day journey of prayer for the parents quietly and faithfully planting spiritual seeds in their children’s lives — whether or not they’ve seen any fruit yet.
Each day includes a short Scripture, a meaningful quote, and a written prayer to guide you as you cover your children in prayer. The themes change daily, offering direction without being rigid — an open-handed structure you can personalize and make your own.
This linen hardcover devotional is designed to be picked up again and again, acting as a quiet companion for the long work of spiritual formation in the home.

“As well, our littleness makes us aware that, for the most part, we cannot do the big things that shape world history. But we can change the world more humbly, by sowing a hidden seed, by being a hidden antibiotic of health inside the soul of humanity, and by splitting the atom of love inside our own selves.”
— Ronald Rolheiser

Seeds Already Being Sown…
“What a gift and surprise it was to receive Sowing a Hidden Seed in the mail. Already, I feel that God is going to do something in the lives of my children, in my prayer life, and in my heart. I feel like I’m walking through a difficult season, so I am thankful for this reminder to sow seeds into my children’s lives through prayer and through partnering with the Holy Spirit. I’m so excited to see how my family will grow through using this resource.”

“When I think about praying for my kids, my head honestly spins. I don’t know where to start or where to stop. And then shame creeps in — maybe I’m not doing enough, or not praying the right things. Reading Sowing a Hidden Seed has been such an encouragement to me. Every day is literally just one page, one verse, one prayer. It feels turn-key and fully furnished, which is exactly what I need as a mom of a 3- and 4-year-old. All I need to do is just open it up. A lot of devotionals feel like too much, but this fits into everyday, real life. I don’t feel behind or like I need to catch up. Some days, I read it in 30 seconds. Other days, it opens up beautiful conversations with my kids I didn’t even plan for. It’s short, but it’s shaping the way I see my kids and how I bring them to God.”

“This book has been such a blessing to me and my wife. Prayer is something I’ve often wrestled with, yet deeply longed for. In church history, believers have recited beautiful, Spirit-filled prayers, but for years I carried guilt about using written prayers instead of my own words. Brook gently dismantles that guilt and invites us into a space of true communion with the Lord—especially through the gift of praying in the name of our beloved children. If you have kids in your life, this book is a treasure you’ll be thankful for.”

“Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.”
