A Grand Way to Live: Faith, Wisdom, and Joy for Every Grandparent
April 13, 2026

After decades of writing books for dads that have strengthened families across the USA, Jay Payleitner is taking on grandparenting in his newest title, A Grand Way to Live: Faith, Wisdom, and Joy for Every Grandparent (A 90-Day Devotional).
Now a grandfather to eight wonderful grandchildren, Jay has no shortage of material to draw from for this eclectic and surprising blend of personal anecdotes, biblical wisdom, authentic prayers, and well-chosen quotations for grandparents.
Jay has carefully crafted each devotional through his years of writing and speaking to groups across the nation, whether it’s reinventing yourself, facing culture change, connecting with your grandchildren, being awesome in-laws, or learning how to instil faith in a new generation.
Jay Payleitner is committed to broadening helpful resources for grandparents. He’s consulted on a new series of grandparenting retreats, contributed blog posts for GrandKids Matter, and is a creative strategist for Christian Grandparenting Network.
