Let's Pray!

Attention: open in a new window.

"Our pastor said we should start praying together, but it feels so awkward. How do we get started?"

Many couples struggle with praying together, especially because it leaves you feeling so vulnerable and transparent. But isn't that exactly how you want to be with each other? So step out of your comfort zone and give it a try.

We suggest you start out simply by saying grace over meals together. Once you get past the anxiety of that, go to the Psalms and read one as a prayer, adding a few sentences of your own. Soon you'll be on your way to talking to God as one. Talking to God through prayer is a three-fold cord that's not easily broken!
