Question:
Do you know of any Christian ministries for alienated grandparents?
We know several Christian couples who have been totally cut off from seeing or connecting in any way with their grandkids and others cut off except for sending birthday and Christmas gifts. Any recommendations?

The following is not a Christian resource but this program has many good resources that might be very helpful. As always, I encourage those who review these resources to look for information that supports a biblical worldview.

Finally, Focus on the Family has a counseling department that can provide referrals for licensed therapists around the country who adhere to an evangelical, Christian worldview.
