One of a husband’s most important responsibilities is to pray for his wife. Unfortunately, though, many men do not know how to pray for their wives and often end up not praying at all.

How to Pray for Your Wife, an interactive prayer journal, is intended to help husbands study and better understand the uniqueness of masculinity and femininity as expressed in marriage. Author Mark Weathers unpacks Proverbs 31 and helps husbands apply this Scripture in prayer for their wives.

This book is for all husbands who wish to better understand how God made their wives and how they can pray biblical prayers for them. The study guide at the end of the book, designed to help pastors and leaders in their teachings on marriage, draws from the themes of the book’s daily readings and can be adapted for men’s Bible studies, men’s retreats, premarital counseling, or discipleship meetings.
