Early in our marriage, we struggled with intimacy, communication, sin, and many other issues, that eventually almost brought us to the brink of divorce. We were Christians who loved God and wanted so badly to make our marriage work, but because so many things seemed to be wrong, it was hard for us to see what God saw. Even though we felt so far from God we kept praying. Sometimes it was just me, sometimes it was just Jennifer, but we kept praying. Through prayer, we kept our eyes and our hearts on God instead of only ourselves and our struggles… and because we kept praying, we were in the right place to hear God’s heart for us. God changed us and showed us who He desired us to be. Our struggles didn’t change or go away in that moment, but our hearts and minds completely transformed. That is why we now encourage every couple to pray like never before.
We want to challenge you to spend the next 31-days praying for your spouse. You’re not going to be doing this alone! Not only are there thousands of couples taking the challenge with you, but we will also be sending you a daily email with prompts and ideas for you to pray for your spouse. We want this to be a fun and exciting month of learning and growing in your marriage prayer life. Prayer is the battlefield where we get to fight for our marriage! Let’s go to battle equipped and willing to fight for our spouse and intercede for them every day, together.
