My wife and I became Christians after our children were more or less grown up.  How do we make up for all the time we wasted and how do we lead them to God now?

Let them watch you as you live life.

Yep.  Just let them see your life change. Pray for opportunities to share your new faith, listen to their questions and concerns, admit you may not have all the answers, be vulnerable, apologize when you slip up, praise them often..tell them you love and accept them no matter what.  :) Isn't that what God does for us?  Good luck and God bless!

Yes, as has already been said so well here. Don't pressure, but let them see something in you.
We have a book called 'The power of praying for your adult children' By Stormie Omartian. Its full of prayers that are 100% scriptural that you can pray for them.
